Featured on BIMMERPOST.com http://www.motortrend.com/news/x6-m-...yenne-turbo-s/ As usual, X6 M. I am quite surprised that X6 M even beat Cayenne turbo s |

So, do the performance specs for an F85 (X5 M) match the F86 (X6 M)? Will the X5M burst to 60 in 3.7 and match the track time?

Difference between the X5M and X6M is minimum, performance wise. But I'm amazed they were able to nail 3.7 on the X6M, but motor trend always get better numbers than other mags, maybe they have different way to measure it?

It's amazing that our cars have a lateral acceleration of .98g. BMW wins in braking, acceleration, and cornering. Yet, it's $60k cheaper than a Porsche Cayenne Turbo S with similar options.
By the way, the new X5M and X6M actually makes 647HP at the crank with 93 octane (not 567HP). BMW was able to legally sandbag the HP numbers by testing with lower octane fuel.

Jnosol , are you sure ?
For example , in Europe we have the X5 M50d , tri-turbo diesel engine , 381 HP announced by BMW. After trying a few F15 M50d on the Dyno , the maximum power was 345 HP. I doubt very much that our F85's have more than announced , even with a higher octane. I'm filling in 98 octane all the time. |

After reading that article my hands are sweating in anticipation of our new X5M. And as the test said, no driver will ever take on the track... Uh. this WILL be my wet weather track car lol. I can tow my normal track car and if it rains I just disconnect the trailer and take the X5M out!

Stop looking at numbers! Porsche Cayenne Turbo is the best in class! Quality components + best handling! Those that don't agree about handling, never drove a Porsche turbo! Don't have enough money for Porsche, go and buy BMW X5/6 M.

Don't forget the option of adding a steering wheel to the Porsche, its hard to drive without one Yes I had a Cayenne in the past too. Great car hands down, but not as good of a value hands down.

if you drive one and you get embarrassed on the road by x5/6m then dont cry just know that you have a higher class car and should feel rich! i recently blew doors off brand new bentley gt, and they guy told me at least i'm rich....to which i said, "maybe but we were measuring our pockets just now but speeds of our cars and you got your ass handed to you...so next time your rich ass can pay some to lose" ..... the guy had a deer in the headlights look and drove off like a ricer. so take the test for what it is, an opinion.
