When it comes to cars opinions and likes will always differ...hence there is always a car for everyone's taste....and money....

You have no appreciation for this beauty. This is one of the greatest Coupe SUV’s ever made and this is the only review I’ve watched that frowns on the insane engineering and work that went through making it. Your opinion about looks or whatever are up to you but cannot deny that the x6m competition is a piece of art, at least in terms of its mechanics. For me this is one of the best looking cars TO DATE.

Just as car enthusiasts continue to say "I don't get why people buy this" or "why would you ever buy a heavy SUV that has this kind of power/speed" I continue to say, why not? As a daily? Bring it on! 1) Many of us are not in a financial position where we can afford both a true sports car and a car that we can haul around the family/groceries etc...We have ONE car to purchase and when buying an X3M/X4M/X6M etc... it allows us to somewhat enjoy the power of a sports car and the practicality of an SUV. 2) For many of us, we get snow, and lots of it. Unfortunately, buying an M3 or M2 Comp is not going to do the job (even with snow tires). We might be able to enjoy the car throughout the spring/summer but in the Midwest, once fall/winter hits its cold weather, wet weather, and snow. The 2021 M3 w/ xDrive is something I would pounce at if it was available, but since it wont be until end of '21, we're left with less options if we're looking at M cars. 3) These vehicles are absolute monsters and actually quite fun to drive on the main road. Many of us are not going to the track so why not be able to enjoy an everyday daily and the performance it brings along with it? Sure it is not the smoothest ride, but personally I quite enjoy that stiff sport feeling. There's nothing like dusting a C8 corvette as it tries to gain traction when you take off in an X3M Comp :) With that aside, keep up the good work, Joe!

I understand performance suvs to an extent and you’ve said quite well why I agree but bmw is the only brand I think they truly make sense because they don’t offer a performance estate. If it was my money I’d buy an RS6 avant and then there’s also the e63 wagon. But I think the argument is more compelling for bmw because they don’t offer that style of car but you then wouldn’t buy the likes of an x6 if you’re after practicality. The Q8 is a coupe suv done brilliantly but again you don’t buy them for practicality you’d just get the q7 or x5/x7. I love performance suvs though I think why the hell not produce as many high performance suvs while yoi can with thirsty engines before they are all fazed out. Think I rambled but yeah 😂

Another great vid Joe. Personally I like the look 👍

Big thanks for good content )

Well, here's one of those people. I love it, all of it! ❤️ I sat in the back of an X6 (I drive an X3) a couple of months ago and I'm 5'11". You must have had that driver's seat fully back to have a problem. And if you have two adults behind you, then let the smaller of the two sit behind the driver. Your comment about the driving and ride quality is well founded. The X Competition series is renowned for being nervous and uncomfortable. Great review, bravo 👏

Again good job! Do you see any chance to drive the new LCI G30 Alpina B5? I think they are now also available in the UK now. Great channel. Keep up the good work!

Hello Joe, first of all congratulations for the channel, great content, I was watching the tests of the bmw X5 M Competition and the X6 M Competition, if you were to choose one of them, which one would it be, which one did you like best and why.

Love your videos, Its interesting how you talking about that car in the beginning of the video but its also amazing to hear how the ton of your vice change as soon you Lounch and drive that amazing machine. 😂 I had 2 x6. The ultimate driving machine 😎

Good honest (almost brutally!) review.

A great honest review, respect is due, all I can say is thank goodness I don't own any SUV... especially these alleged sporting versions... now that's a nice comment , so I will leave it there.

Good to see you in west Oxfordshire. Shame didn’t see you in my M3 👍🏻

It’s like asking why they make 2 doors cars when 4 doors is more practical. Can we just love the fact that they giving us more choice. And I like the x6M The back could have been better tho but it’s not too bad Thanks for the vids man, really appreciate it

Would this be a good daily driver? Also does it come standard with ambient lighting?

Thanks for the review & explaining the BOTB. I initially thought it was an acronym for Bottom Of The Barrel (depicting your feelings about the X6). We all know what BYOB means. But kids are creating a whole new language via txt that's hard to keep up with. Sorry Joe, I know this comment is off topic but it's always great seeing you review vehicles (and M cars). Can u review Shmarks' redesigned M2Comp sometime?

I love it. Even the rear. 😍

Great video Joe! 👌🏻 why indeed... the X5M does everything this does but better and looks better. Personally preference is a funny thing 👍🏻

Really surprised that the x5m handles so differently to the x6m. I’ve heard about this before on the previous mode but wasn’t sure it was true. As for the “tramline” effect of the steering, yeah it feels so scary at first to drive this car fast on bumpy roads. But you get used to it over time and afterwards you don’t want to go back to cars that don’t have this extra “feel” for the road. X6m owner myself. I’d say the only time I don’t like the overly sporty set up of this car is when covering very long distances in one day (500 miles etc), by the end of the journey you just want a regular soft x6. But for all other times I drive mine, I absolutely wouldn’t take anything else. Wondering just much different the x5m is in terms of suspension and steering feel ?

Haha almost loses the back end in that first clip..! Epic machine though 👏🏽

X6M looks so much better. Back in 2008 Nobody believes it will succeed. But E71 X6M actually outsold the E70 X5M. That proves when people buy a super SUV. They more likely want them to look more exciting than normal style SUV. In certain areas X6m is the spirit of BMW: To do something others have never done before. 2015 GLE63s came in to compete in this segment. And Urus, Cayenne turbo coupe are also trying to copy X6M because people love the idea of high performance SUV coupe. Maybe X5M fits lots of car guys who want to keep it low. (not trying to draw attentions) But man X6M really turn heads. I wouldn't even look at some Lambos or Ferraris on the street. But when I see an X6M I always give the owner a thumb up.

That intro was sick

Love your channel, at 0:05 in, I thought that was a shot of a big dent in the LR panel. Nope, a design cue. Never cared much for this model of bmw, as one auto journalist coined, ‘bmw’s answer to the question never asked.’ Ok, that’s funny, many people like it though, and it sells, cool beans. In it’s defense, real exhaust tips unlike audi. 👊🏻 Through reviews as always. Loved your 52.7 mpg 900 mile 7 series video. Gorgeous car, paint, etc.

Could you compare suspension of this new X6M with previous generation X6M? Is it less comfortable or more or less the same?

The rear end of the 1ste generation X6 was much better looking than the current generation. It had a sportier, more menacing look.

First clip I also thought the rear end had been caved in. 😂 Thanks for sharing 👍

It is all subjective which means it comes down to "different strokes for different folks". The fact that you can't understand why someone would spend the money to buy this car is in fact the reason why people would spend the money to buy this car.

I changed my 325-30-21s from runflats and it handles so much better a lot less twitchy and doesn’t tramline any more.

The X6 in general is more like a marketing stunt. Building a car for a specific niche in the market, that doesnt exist... And the "competition" makes no sense as a model name anyway, nothing competetive about the lump of metal

It won't change the way it looks, or the lack of room in the back. X4 and X6 isn't for me

Joe, as someone who appreciates BMW engineering - a fanboy, your words - it's refreshing to hear your honest take on the X6 M Comp. I found it very insightful that you recommended the Audi RS Q8 as a more confidence building and comfort inducing alternative. I was also wondering what your confidence level is in terms of drive trains? Don't get me wrong, BMW's V8 performance is impressive, but the N63 has had a notorious history of reliability issues. I own a couple Audi's (S5, Q5) and was looking to move to a midsize performance SUV/coupe. I like the look - don't ask me why?! - of the humpback X6 - especially in the M50i trim: it's interior cabin accommodations, sans the rear seat room are premo! But I lack confidence in the durability of it's hot vee twin turbo v8. The SQ8/RSQ8 is beautiful but lacking many premium interior amenity options. The Porsche Cayenne S/GTS have most of the features at a very steep price though. Merc has suspended production of majority of its biturbo v8 production (to N America). Are you confident in the durability of the VWG/Audi/Porsche twin-turbo hot vee V8s? If one were to go with six cylinders, one can't argue build quality of BMW's I6 (B58, etc) over the V6 competition. Keep up the great content!!!

Another enjoyable video Joe. Prefer the X5 the X6 styling is a very limited audience appeal. In fact the X5 45e is the pick of the bunch on the market from BMW given UKs 2030 deadline on ICEs

Sounds like Mike @ Motech needs to work his magic on that suspension set up.

Grew up with wagons, but you can't get them here in the States 🗽 anymore 😤. The X4 platform works for my taste and needs. Wish the X4/X6 came with a solid Carbon Fiber Roof to lighten it up, don't need or want a panoramic moonroof, also want a Trailer Hitch included. The BMW Exterior Design Team definitely needs an enema. ✌🏻

I’m in line of purchasing the 2022 BMW X6, from the start, he starts his complaining. It’s clear, he doesn’t like anything about the X6, his many dislikes were to me a complete turn off to me (his opinions not the car itself. Nitpicking was all about this video.

Such an awesome looking thing way more aggressive than the old model

Hi Joe, loved your video once again as always! I have a question regarding the m140i or the old 135i. Do you think these cars will increase in value next year due to their rarity and the fact that they may be the last of the 6 cyl rwd bmw hatchbacks. Keep up the good work Joe 💪👍

If for some reason you want a super SUV like the Urus but don't quite have enough, forget the RSQ8, get one of these... 🤷🏽‍♂️ I'd still say a super saloon/estate is the better thing to get tho 😂

Sir, your voice is better with a little microphone device that you use in the back seat. I think you should use it all reviews.

Not a fan of the segment but I enjoyed hearing your insight

I love it a fricking extravagant BEAUTY.

So, the 4,4 litre V8 with 750 NM and either 530/600/625 hp is in the M550i, M850i, X5M50i, X6M50i, X7M50i, M5, M5 competition, M8, M8 competition, X5M, X5M competition, X6M, X6M competition, M8, M8 competition and the 750i/750Li models. The mistakes BMW M makes are not all that much about the styling, but the marketing they do, which does really water down the M sub-brand with those M performance models and those competition models and etc.. Just make it like it used to be, just one M model with unique motor and that is it. Now, M cars are more for instagram models, instead of true drivers.
