550i base price in Holland: € 87.880

630i base price in Holland: € 91.600
650i base price in Holland: € 111.150

Clearly a big difference here too.
5er is for 'everybody', and 6er is for 'select few'. Same will be with X5 and X6.

Edit;

Here the price difference between X5 and X6 in my country:

X5 3.0d: € 73.840
X5 3.0sd: € 78.560

X6 xDrive30d: € 78.500
X6 xDrive35d: € 83.450

X5 4.8i: € 97.350

X6 xDrive50i: € 102.750

....looks like the difference is MUCH less than 5er/6er

I guess... but I don't see the X6 as exclusive as the 6er. But then again, compared to its rivals such as the Cayenne and Range Rover, then it puts the price into perspective.

Eventually, the X5 is going to get the exact same technology as the X6... but I'm gonna be pretty shocked if they jack up the price by a big amount.

Go figure. I'm anticipating a starting price of about $66,000 on the 50i.

The engines are the ones making this possible. But if they start this at more than $68,000, then it's time for even me to look at my other options in those ranges (70-80), really.
