I purchase this car used, and she was beautiful. However she came with a list of problems that cost more to repair than the car was worth. It started with a smell of fumes coming into the cabin of the car, I brought the car to New Country BMW dealer a number of times to try to get a confirmation of what was wrong with the car and was told antifreeze was leaking and possibly a leaking cylinder head gasket. Because the dealer could not confirm the leaking gasket, I brought the car to a garage that specializes in foreign cars which gave me a quote of $10,000 to replace leaking Valve Seals, and noted that once they opened the engine they could find additional leaks. I went back to New Country BMW and explained to them the diagnostic I received, and was told yes these cars are known for leaking valve seals and there is a possibly that the cylinder head gaskets need to be replaced also for an additional $10,000 and $4,000 for the leaking antifreeze repair. Yes, I brought the car used, but who would think with the original price BMW charges for these vehicles that the engine would get more than 100,000. I have driven Infiniti's for far over $150,000 miles..

One of the best BMWs yet

I moved into this vehicle from a 6 series and absolutely love it. The 6 is a great car and is a lot of fun so moving to a SAC somewhat scared me but the X6 is awesome. I purchased the performance package so my X6 has an extra 40 horses and it makes the car even more of a beast. I would highly recommend this car to anyone that loves to drive and demands performance from the car.

I first had a 325CI and that was my first BMW and I loved it, heck I still do, Its a great driving machine. But as I've gotten older, I wanted to upgrade and I thought driving a 6- series was going to be that upgrade that i needed. I saw the X6 and asked to test drive it, and well it was just what i was looking for, not as big as a true SUV but sits up high and larger, while maintaining a 'cool,sporty-look'. I immed. started negotiations, and wrapped e-thing up in about two-three hours. And I can't get enough of driving it!

BMW X6 2010 Sound issue

The sound system has started to going off in my car since last 2 months (in the beginning was intermittent but now a day happens so often). I bought my X6 in January and up to ~June I didn't have sound problem. But then later sound started going off (no sound for radio/cd, Reverse-alert, SOS, etc). Sometime restarting the Engine was helpful but not always. BMW Service told me because I had setup the bluetooth with blackberry which has an old version. But even after deleting the blackberry from the phone list and keeping the phone off when in my car I saw sound going off again. I am putting for my car at BMW for second time. I hope they will be able to fix it. I paid $87,000 for this car!

Got it with all the bells and whistles after the 335i coupe had to be turned in for a baby livery!! It's fast and fun!! The navigation is so much better than before. The active seats are a bit much but the heads-up display is noteworthy!!!!!

Came from a porsche + SUV and I wanted to experience both in a single vehicle. This is it. The acceleration, handling and feel are hard to believe at first, but you get more confident as you go. It responds and feels like a sports car at high speed, and like a midsize SUV at slow speeds. Absolute luxury and comfort. Looks mean and drives meaner. Every techno gadget you could want and the best VR and nav in the business. The interior rivals a 7-series.

I am very fortunate. I have owned over 250 vehicles. The bmw x6 is definitely my favourite out of all the cars I have driven and owned. I purchased a bmw x6 50i, it has the v8 twin turbo. Bad design on having the twin turbos in the v of the engine. The heat from the turbos harden the valve guides, and you start using a litre of oil every 500 kilometres. Went to get it fixed was told it’s better to put a new engine in. So I did. So happy with it till 2 days ago when someone tried passing me over a double yellow line and took out my driver front fender and front end. It is a right off. I’m going to buy a bmw x6 35i to get away from the engine problems and enjoy the best ride of my life!

Amazing 2010 X6 5.0

My 2010 X6 5.0 is amazing. Fast, plenty of room inside, and something that will challenge a good driver’s skills every day. Perhaps the best compliment I can pay to the BMW X6 5.0 is that it is like playing on a great musical instrument. Know how to play it, and it will reward you with an experience that cannot be described in words.
