Conclusion
In this market segment, competition is limited because few manufacturers have dared to attack it. The X6 xDrive35 has only two direct rivals: the godfather Infiniti FX35 ($55,050) and, to some extent, the Land Rover Range Rover Sport ($71,600). Please note that the latter is not available with a V6.
If you're looking to turn heads with a uniquely-styled vehicle, you'll be delighted. On the other hand, comfort and visibility will quickly make you regret your decision. Performance meets expectations and the X6 proves quite pleasant to drive on the highway, but in the city, it requires too much attention.
From what I've seen, the process of transforming the X5 into a coupe-style SUV like the X6 is a failed experiment.
