X5 AND X6 M. When they coming out?

Does anyone know when they are due to be released? Apparently they will have 500bhp is that true? Also any info on costs yet?

Thanks

I called my local dealer to try and get dates and prices (sad to admit I quite fancy one of these). I was told these cars are not certain to ever be made and sometimes BMW will 'leak' such stories to the press to see if there's any interest in such cars.

I really hope, purely from my point of view of course, that these cars do not get made.

IMO that would be the limit of prostituting the M brand ... M should not be about that IMO

Both will go into production in Mai 2009 - I would think they'll be available in the UK by September. Close to 500 bhp sounds about right.

Interesting. My local dealer denied that they would happen. Are there are prices yet?
