    So they made sort of a wagon/SUV type car based from a 4door which originated as a 2 door. Correct me if I'm wrong, but only from the Germans. It's sleek looking they probably wanted something that was a little bigger to compete with the Model S and A7. But unique in its own way also.

    Dear BMW, give this thing a mercy killing and make it a proper station wagon. Just call it an "activity vehicle", and no one will notice it's a wagon.

  • @McBeamer94
    @McBeamer94 6 лет назад +1

    First things first, what are these small lights that light up just after the normal brake lights? Extra-bright brake lights, maybe? Two-stage brake lights, maybe?
    Because I've seen them in other BMWs too! The M3 F80 and the M4 also have these lights! Any ideas?
    Also, the shifter shifted itself into P?? What is that??
    And by saying "A la carte" you mean BMWs Connected Services, am I right?
    Say what you will about the looks, but the space inside this car is absolutely huge! I mean, compared to the X6, the 6-Series GT is more dignified and roomier at the same time!
    I say "dignified" because I find this design more attractive than its predecessor, the 5-Series GT! The front end looks sharper, like a BMW should, but the rear end is better looking than before! It's far from beautiful, but at least it's a step forward, especially when compared to the hideous X6 and the new X4!
    Although, I think the name should still be the 5-Series! Even numbers in the BMW line-up have always been associated with coupé and convertible models! BMW has made the same mistake before, with the 2-Active/Gran Tourer! It should be called the 1-Active/Gran Tourer, because in the existing way, it dilutes the historical 02 code and the small coupé blood line recently resurrected by the 2-Series Coupé!

    • @stangmatt66
      @stangmatt66 6 лет назад

      Yes, most, if not all, BMWs have additional brake lights that light up in aggressive or panic stops. It’s an extra safety feature.
      If the electronic shifter is in manual mode (pulled to the left) and you push the park button, the shifter moves back to its normal position to the right.
      By “a la carte,” they mean that some options on BMWs are not in packages. While most models have packages like Technology package or Sport package, you can order things like heated seats, satellite radio, or Apple car play by themselves, stand alone, a la carte.

    • @dentonarmstrong7470
      @dentonarmstrong7470 6 лет назад

      When you’re in any gear other than park the lever is off to the side. When you press the “P” button the gear selector moves over

    @davids1816 5 лет назад +1

    To make the care seem roomy, there is like zero tumblehome. So when you look at it from the front, the windshield reminds me of Megamind's forehead... Having said that, I think it would have, with 3 or 4 inches of extra ground clearance, some fender flairs and bigger wheels, this would have made a much nicer looking X6 than the one they are selling.

  • @maximzaslavskiy5980
    @maximzaslavskiy5980 4 года назад

    It's unbelievable how much launch control makes BMW accelerate better for posting times. Try it without the launch, and you will loose at least 1 second in the 0-60, and the shifts won't be as crisp.
