I have driven an X5M. That car is a bloody rocket ship. Very impressive, handled like a much smaller/lighter car. That engine is ridiculous too, never feels like it is running out of steam, pulls like a Brad Pitt look a like at a night club.

I know it doesn't sound or handle like an M5 and I know it is a kind of pointless, over indulging sort of car. However, to say that you drove an X6M and were not impressed by how it could make a big, heavy SUV feel so nimble and go like an M3 in a straight line, is just ignorant.

Either you did not drive it enthusiastically at all or you live in a world where you drive Veyrons and Zonda's on a daily basis. If so, fair enough!
