BMW has always said there will never be a M X series. I can almost guarantee this is the TTV8 engine being tested out. Not an M, but 400hp and 450lb/tq...

Comet · 06-27-2008, 04:08 AM

this is the TT V8 one

or so Autoblog says
it's not an M

hks786 · 06-27-2008, 05:01 AM

The X6 didnt come with any special bodykit for the V8TT models. Also, BMW has already released the 4.8 Msport model. The 4.8 Msport has 19s (optional 20s), sport suspension, bodykit, sport seats etc.

So what it this new bodykit for? If its just for the V8TT I'm confused. Take note that it uses the honeycomb mesh found only on M models and it even has quads. Hmmm...

Yeah, I know...but BMW has said a lot of things.

i hope they fix that exhaust

E90SLAM · 06-27-2008, 08:42 AM

wat's next??? ///M7, ///X6M, ///X3M, and ///Hydrogen7M????

Epacy · 06-27-2008, 08:54 AM

Why does everyone assume this is an X5 M? There is no proof of that.

keanu1 · 06-27-2008, 09:03 AM

it's just a new powerful engine with a sport bodykit; it;s not necessarly an m! maybe it;s a v12 tt!!!

TheAcAvenger · 06-27-2008, 09:06 AM

The old X5 4.8 had quads as well. The body kit IS pretty wild though. It could just be an m-sport version, but even then...

coco_m3 · 06-27-2008, 10:21 AM

i like it alot.

I would agree, but we have already seen the 4.8 Msport version:

So it cant be an Msport version. It also has mesh intakes like M models and quads.

!Xoible · 06-27-2008, 10:26 AM

where's the wide body? lol

40yroldawakening · 06-27-2008, 10:30 AM

I like the looks, but that thing extruding from the back, looks like a DILDO !!!!

Maybe thats the mother-in-law seat

That's the towing hook?

I doubt the M division would even consider designing a suspension for an SUV, or using a turbo engine in any of their cars.
