You better get the extended warranty

2011 BMW X6 xDrive35i 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 8A)
Before you buy a X5 - X6 drive model, you better check out the extended warranty. My 2011 BMW X6 with only 55K miles is currently at the dealership to have the drive shaft / transfer case repaired . If not for my extended warranty on the car, I would be out $5,000 to $7,000. I got lucky this time, but with less than a year left on the extended warranty, I'm now serioulsy thinking about … trading my car in. This most likely will be first and last BMW, love the car, but hate the cost of repairs cost. Last year, I spent $1700 to have the front and rear brake pads replace.
Projection of unique characteristic

I've had this car for just about a year now. 2010 model. I use this car to commute and Everywhere I go get a head turn from other people. You may call me an attention seeker. Yes, I enjoy people's stares on my vehicle.
In fact, this car offers differentiation from other car owners. I personally think BMW's attempt of making a SAC was pretty bold move, yet succesful one.
This car drives … like sports sedan and has high view, offers good horse power and torque, but my favorite is the look.
I have to say this car isn't for everyone. This car is for the people who's willing to spend money to differentiate oneself from others.
Engine locked BEWARE!!!!!

2011 BMW X6 xDrive35i 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 8A)
In 12/31/10 I bought a brand new BMW x6...To witness my car being built on my computer wow I have to say I was so happy I had the car of my dream!!!..It was built exactly the way I wanted mannnn I did love my car but let's say that my dream didnt last that long...on September 2015, while driving on the highway my engine locked... towed my car to BMW service department and after them … keeping my car for over 2 weeks, I was advised that my engine was locked due to my strip under the hood which was damaged(I guess that's the strip that prevent water from entering my engine)...My warranty was expired for only a few months so I was charged $8000 for the repair and they provided me a refurbished engine but after browsing on the internet and seeing all the locked engine comments I decided why should I have to pay for something which wasn't my fault so I did a stop payment on the services...I started asking myself questions?? The Owner Manual clearly states not to get under the hood of your car unless it's from a professional BMW mechanic so if all my services were done at BMW service department how come they failed to see that this strip which can cause water to enter my engine was damaged what happened to customer service,what happened to integrity, isnt that what they stand for!!! I made several trips to the service department because my engine sensor was on after doing many diagnostics tests they couldnt find the root of the problem..so they just cleared my sensor and sent me on my way..long story short my $80,000 car became my nightmare and still is..BMW filed a lawsuit against me and charged me $32,000 in triple damages... I have to say that I do not recommend anyone from buying a BMW!!!!! My X6 wasnt my first car purchased with this company I did have a 328I which was great but based on my recent experience and being a loyal customer for over 6 years they treated me like I was a piece of trash so please Please don't get a BMW !!!! I totally lost respect for this company!!! I never taught this would go this far I even called BMW corporate office several times frantic and crying during all my ordeal and they suggested that I just let go the car who says that like really I spent all this money for nothing they didnt even care or provided me with any other option...This story is totally based on my experiences and unfortunately I will never give them a great review on a scale of 1-10 they dont even score a 1. Any other dealership would have gone above and beyond!!!!
Incredibly fun

Been a BMW owner since 1996. These cars keep on getting better and better. I have an X5 4.4 V8 and now the owner of an X6 (still kept the X5). In short having the X6 35idrive (diesel), i can honestly say that i do miss the oomph of the v8, though the gas consumption is way better 10.8 L/100 km. It is economically better, and way cheaper gassing up once every 10 days vs 5 days with the … V8. So apart from the get and up and get em, v8 power what do i miss. Nothing, great car, great steering, incredibly great seats, incredibly great car. Few around and the owners are proud. Hard to park though, apart from that highly recommended you will get signs of approval from all. It is a modern marvel.
