Details on the X6 Coupe Begin to Surface

German magazine Auto Zeitung has spilled more information on BMW’s upcoming X6 Coupe, a sporty version of the hugely successful X5. Scheduled for release in the beginning of 2008, the X6 will share the same four-door coupe styling made so popular by the CLS, but will do so on the same platform as the X5. Being a “fun SUV,” the X6 will come with a more driver-oriented interior and range of powerful engines. The relationship between the X5 and X6 will be the same as the 5 and 6-series – more sporting and upscale. BMW’s goal is to target the Porsche Cayenne by having a vehicle that is both more fun to drive and cheaper to boot.

Hey guffadoodles, I'm sure you are drunk or something (too much sherry at xmas maybe?) For most of your comments I'd just think you were an idiot and ignore you, and then leave before the flame wars start. But after I thought about it for a bit I thought how funny it would be to bury an axe in your face! then after a while more I thought, "ah forget it... this is autospies and I wouldn't expect anything less than that kind of crap you posted"

Huu, you must mean a Porsche is a VW is a Porsche.

Not sure where the X6 will fit in BMW's stable, but if it's a step up from the X5 then the Cayenne will pose no competition. As it is, the new X5 is much better on/off road than the Cayenne (absent the Turbo, of course for on road speed).

Havn't seen much of a picture yet, but by reading it I'm imagining it to be a weird shape like an FX or a Range Sport, with the hunchback.
