 BMW X6 M Caught Almost Undisguised Before New York Unveiling
BMW X6 M / BMW Blog

Expected to feature a twin-turbo V8 engine with 550 horsepower

Our friends over at BMWBlog have managed to capture the upcoming 2010 BMW X6 M virtually undisguised just days before it is scheduled to be unveiled at the New York Auto Show.

Although this testing mule is still wearing some camouflage, the overall look of the X6 M is decidedly aggressive as it boasts a new front bumper with massive air intakes. Elsewhere we can see the new high-performance model features a unique mono-tone exterior paint scheme that creates a far more premium appearance than lesser X6s, which come with black plastic lower body cladding. While the camouflage prevents us from getting a clear picture of the X6 M's rear, it will most likely only undergo minor alterations such as a switch from dual exhaust to a more M-like quad exhaust setup.

BMW has been tightlipped about what will power the new model but so far all indications point to a new twin-scroll twin-turbo V8 engine which should produce 550 horsepower.

does look good, but X6s look much better in person than on pictures, so I would love to see one of this on road some time. Also, I'm actually more curious how the X5M gonna look like

Well, the G55 is probably one of the coolest cars in the known universe. So, probably not.

Those wheels look so much better than those in the leaked photos.

X6 looks as if it is standing on stilts to me! It's a pointless car in my eyes, this thing will be awful off road, buy a Range Rover Sport if you want a real SUV, or a Jag XFR if you want a proper performance luxury motor...
