World turns around. Time goes on. (Tehnological) Progress is rapid. Open your mind!

Are we really so old already?
Haha, well said, Eni!

Re: BMW developing xDrive for M cars!!!

Confirmations From the Source itself in regards to a X6 M:

(a) http://www.germancarzone.com/new-bmw...d-updated.html

"BMW M's first foray into the non Sedan ,Coupe and cabrio market The X6-M again as this is a Coupe model a Carbon Fibre Roof will feature strongly in it's weight saving plan.
Expected to be powered by an upgraded V10 engine BMW will position the X6-M right into the bowels of performance Coupe owners with families and the need for luggage space".

(b) http://www.germancarzone.com/x6-sac/...-carolina.html (Over the back fence BMW talk from South Carolina)

"He also confirmed "M" versions of ...X6."

And of course, there's sifting through any posts I have made as this is all I care about, the X6M, and countless confirmations from different members...God Help BMW If They Don't Deliver--

Re: BMW developing xDrive for M cars!!!

M creating a SUV, surely applying AWD to some other model, and maybe thinking to use a turbo (hence: not high-reving) motor...

AMG creating N/A cars, a dirty C63 with a better steering than the M3 and recognized as more hard-core...

I never would have thought it one year ago!!

"World turns around. Time goes on. (Tehnological) Progress is rapid. Open your mind!"
You're right, EnI, you're right. Maybe even more than you think

Re: BMW developing xDrive for M cars!!!

The "purist" argument for RWD is kinda silly in my opinion. My that logic, power windows, air conditioning and a radio aren't "purist".

All the best technology should go in to all the best cars.
