Damn!
That LBB color is pretty wow.

The only thing I don't like on these cars is that it looks like it has too many front bumper vents, like too many compartments on the front, and not crazy about BMW's new direction with the side vents/gills, they look like something on you'd see on a KIA(no offence to KIA).

Yes, all of the above. From a stand still, the X5M beat the Cayenne Turbo by more than a car length.

Now, it may be a different story with the Cayenne Turbo S...but it can be $50k more as well.

I'm a little surprised they compared with the Cayenne Turbo, as I thought that competed with the 50i, and the M competed with the Turbo S?

I would compare the GTS (440hp) with F15 50i (450hp), and Turbo S with X5/6M

Refreshed Cayenne Turbo S hasn't been released yet. Should be in 2-3 Months.

Slalomfever, the video you posted at the top of your thread is marked private when I try to play it. Am I doing something wrong, or is the problem on your end.

The refreshed Turbo S isn't out yet. Plenty of 2014 models still on the ground.

I guess I wasn't clear. You can't buy one currently in the US. Just like the X5 M and X6 M.

That's why BMW didn't bring one.

Yeah, yeah. Great video though.

I don't get snow here in NorCal, but would love to play with my X5 M like that.
