Is the car still on shipping blocks, or is the wheelgap supposed to be so comically huge?

I like the color combo. Cognac, eh? That interior makes me thirsty.

All last year X5 and X6 models were 74mm including this year's F15. I guess they made the Active Hybrid (E72) different like the M models. Still, I like the black wheels you chose. Can't wait to see how they look on your F16 .

10x20" winters on! I think I need some 20mm spacers in the back.

Looks solid . Personally, I'd put the BMW emblems in there.

Looks just fine to me...I know it's Dark Graphite from your pic. Obviously, sunny environments will give the best color for pictures, and new pictures are always welcome .

If you want your dog to be comfy without banging his head, you'll want to get an X5. The big complaint, no matter what anyone else tells you, is that the X6 rear headroom is terrible - it's even worse on the new one as mentioned by @Barbja. For kids, it's perfectly fine. For anyone above 5'10", you'll have your head against the roof. And if you have an active large dog, he will be scratching his head against the roof liner quite often.

X6 is for when you don't need the full size SUV space or rear head room.

Don't understand how the X6 can be worse in rear headroom yet in the X4 they sorted headroom, I am 6'3 and ok, for they lowered seat. Need to sit in one of the new X6.

The way the iDrive panel sits in the dash looks fantastic with the full leather.

The real time traffic info doesn't seem to be working. Is there anything to setup or just auto?

Did anyone get winter rubber mats for their X6 yet? Checked online and found nothing for this new model, do you think mats from F15 or E71 will work??

I have full set of BMW X6 rubber mats with BMW logo. Just waiting for the trunk mat. I'll check if I could find the parts number.
