Horrible Engine in these cars.
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..

My snow car is a fun car
I've had MGs, TR-3, Barracudas, BMW m-coupe, Tesla Roadster Sport -- and none are more fun than the BMW X-6. It rides absolutely flat and smooth (the computer reads and regulates the shocks in microseconds), torque-vectoring kicks the rear end around coming out of a corner, and the performance is exciting. It also gets me home up 2000 feet in five miles, around 42 turns, in 4 inches of snow. It will outdrive any SUV including Porsche. When I ran it in an autocross (nobody autocrosses SUVs) I won my class and came in 26th overall -- on snow tires. Don't believe any of the junk you read about this car. It's brilliant.

It makes sense continued...
The X6 is a sports car for car enthusiasts who want to drive the car 12 months per year, including snowy months, who need extra room for luggage. Really, fold down those two back seats and you have a two seater with LOADS of space. You have that high seating and massive weight so your wife, bless her soul, isn't going to pee in her pants every time you pass a truck. The car is fast, luxurious and for my needs, eminently practical. The only con is fuel economy. Dave
You better get the extended warranty
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.

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.
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.
It's Always Something!!
I am the second owner of this car and love the style, ride, handling and acceleration of the car. Purchased as a CPO. Without the warranty this car would cost a fortune to own. The car is 5 years old and has 83000 miles. It has required an engine overhaul, transmission work and 4 recalls with a fuel pump recall coming once the parts are available. For the last 10,000 miles the car has needed a quart of oil every 1000 miles, BMW told me this was normal. Recently, I needed to add coolant. Brought the car in to address the problem and was told after having the car for 2 weeks, it would need valve seals, engine gaskets and new turbo coolant lines, along with hoses. Total cost with the warranty 3500.00!! Service manager told me this is an engine on par with exotics and repairs like this should be expected. Wish I would have known!! Will stay away from BMW high end engines in the future, unless I make a killing in the stock market.

Absolutely amazing
Before I bought this monster, I did my research for almost 2months. I was at a point to purchase a Porsche Cayenne S but it paid to wait. I am totally amazed by the way it rides and what a comfort it offers over Cayenne. Absolutely there is no comparison between Porsche Cayenne and BMW X6 50i. I have looked into almost all high end car manufactures before I finalize this vehicle. I drove Porsche Cayenne, Acura ZDX, Audi Q7, Mercedes ML, Lexus RX400, and Range Rover HSE Supercharge. This BMW X6 is a truly an ultimate driving machine.
Engine locked BEWARE!!!!!
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!!!!

Amazing Car
This is my first BMW and won't be my last. Coming from a 2010 GS Vette I went with the twin turbo V-8, must say it is as fun to drive as the vette but can take both of my kids with me now. I also love that you don't see too many of these on the road. If you are looking at this car segment...you must test drive this car. I had a 2011 550XI on order, but took the Hybrid X6 the dealer had on the lot for a drive and was sold on the car.
It might cost you... or the warranty company
purchased ours used in excellent condition from the dealership with a secondary warranty. It only had 30,000 miles on it at the time and now has around 50k. It has been in the shop for 4 major repairs in the almost two years we’ve owned it - two different valve systems issues, axel replacement, leaking tubes. This has cost the warranty company over $15k. So caveat emptor.

not perfect
well, wife's X6 sound system is not working , we send it back to the dealer they fix it by installing new software but the problem shown twice, after that i wrote a complain letter to BMW germany after two days our local dealer called me to bring back the car, they said the problem from the amplifier!!they change it under warranty so far the sound system is working until now ,but now i see another problem the back camera somtime not working probably. bmw are nice car but they known of ther reliability issue.
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.
Cargasm...
Traded in a 2011 Porsche Cayenne S on the BMW 50 X6 and never looked back. Out handles the Porsche! Faster by a smidge 0.2 to 60 and 0.3 to the quarter mile. Turns a corner like a alley cat wearing sneakers! Not as fancy inside as the Porsche, but so much better outside. The Porsche looked like a Murano in the parking lot. Starts out with 400 HP and BMW will update the ECU with 40 extra ponies for $1350.00. what a deal!
Beauty and the Beast
I've had the car for almost 3 weeks now, The car has amazing performance its incredibly fast and very smooth, great seats, very comfortable the stereo is great, overall no complaints at all
Addicting to drive
I had this car for only a couple of weeks and so far I have been having a great experience. I drove the car on several long trips and have enjoyed every mile of it. The car is agile, tight, yet very comfortable to drive. Even though I have the smaller engine there is enough oomph to pass or just have some fun accelerating. The heads up display shows all the turns when the navigation is used so your eyes are glued to the road. Quite a neat feature. Parking is a breeze when you have the camera set at top view. You can see all 4 corners and the tires before it hits the curb. Overall an excellent build car. Kudos to BMW engineers.
It ain't the "Leave it to Beaver" family car
Im 50 y/o, been married some 29 plus years and through the marriage the newest cars has always gone to the wife until now. Arriving at that new family cycle stage when the children have grown up left home and mini-van has out lived it usefulness. Hence the BMW X6 the next generation MAN TOYS; three words to describe it; exclusive, powerful, and stylist. The X6 is not a Leave it to Beaver family car but for those who are already to accelerate and say wee through the next stage in life. Weekends the wife and I will just on spur of a moment pack a small bag and hit the road and ride, this car is truly a joy to drive. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
Love Ride
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!
It makes sense to me
I was out shopping today for a car to replace my 2009 Mercedes Benz SL550. I've driven sports cars all my life. I like the style, the handling, the thrills. I love my SL but I can only drive it 2/3 of the year because I live on the side of a mountain and there is snow. In the summer, I love to take it on road trips, but luggage space is always an issue and my wife hates highway driving in it. "Slow down!" "Don't pass that truck!" "We're too low to the road!" "Blah blah blah". I know you've heard it too. Every review I read about the X6 whines on about how impractical it is, how it has no purpose, no focus. They just don't get it, do they? ...continued
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!
35i X6
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!!!!!
Awesome Combination
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.
Best ride of my life!
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!

Begs to be Driven
We purchased the 2011 X6, loaded with every option available. This is my first BMW, but won't be the last. The car begs to be driven, and is a blast to drive. The turbo V6 has all the power you'll ever need, especially with the 8 speed transmission. The torque is unreal, but there is slight turbo lag from a dead stop rapid acceleration. The interior is classy, refined, and very comfortable on long drives. Around town in every day driving it gets about 17 mpg. On the high way though, on a recent 250 mile trip we averaged about 26 mpg (not bad for a big vehicle and AWD). The premium sound system is a must have, unbelievable sound.
A Great Decision
Nothing compares. A fantastic driving experience. This car is truly the ultimate driving machine. Picked up the BMW i50 X6 and have been totally satisfied. Traded in a 2011 Porsche Cayenne S! No comparison this time the BMW IS better than the Porsche (Couldn't say that about my 911 vs M5). You will be happy with your decision if you purchase one of these.
Amazing 2010 X6 5.0
My 2010 X6 5.0 is amazing. Fast, plenty of room inside, and something that will challenge a good drivers 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.
A Big Mistake
My salesman took me for my test ride on a freshly paved highway and secondary road. I was pleased. I didn't realize this cars Achilles heel until driving off the lot (after the sale) onto a less than perfect road. Minor road imperfections hurl the passenger about the cabin like a rag doll, eventually making one seek out the smoothest routes to avoid this very, very unpleasant ride. It appears BMW engineers could only accomplish the X6's marginal increase in performance by completely sacrificing all other driving aspects expected in a luxury vehicle ride, SUV or otherwise. Unless you only drive on freshly paved, perfectly smooth road surfaces, you will likely regret buying this vehicle.
Awesome car
This is most rare car in town or city and I hope keep this way for long time. I am from 325is, 325i, M3, 740il and latest, X6. This is most amazing car ever bought compared to previous cars. Don't think as X5 but PURE 4dr Coupe Sports car! I LOVE the Design and that is all I needed it even though I have to give my wife and 2 children everyday. Still getting used to X6.
BMW X6 unique
In all X6 is unique among all its equal. From the front to the back engine movement sound delivery speed & mostly now so common around
