      Amazingly irrelevant. The next time you see an actual owner of one of these vehicles fording a river, plowing through a sand dune, or climbing over the rocks at Moab in his or her X5M, snap a picture, because it will be the first and only such photograph in existence. Testing the off road bona fides of a $130,000 vehicle makes about as much sense as testing the effectiveness of birth control devices in a nursing home.

    Out of the two, I'd go for the X6M. However, I'd really save some money and go for the X6M50i. OK! It's performance is not quite up with the X6M, but it's more comfortable and has one BIG added bonus. The X6M50i has the rear wheel steering that the massive wheels of the X6M cannot handle.
    Oh! Next time you close the rear end of the X5, just press the "close" button on the top tailgate. Then the whole of the tailgate, even the bottom section, closes electronically.

      X6M makes more sense because it’s a sporty design and feels right to have the M. While an X5M is very cool looking even better looking but it makes more sense for the X6M for choice because it’s more special, and performance matches that design.
