Video compilation of M Club China’s large meet in Shanghai. But a meet & greet was not the only activity. The club also joined the 2011 SIC Club Challenge at the Shanghai F1 circuit! Lots of automotive eye candy inside, including plenty of Ms and exotics.

As if the X6M did not already have enough power, an even higher powered BMW X6 M model has just been spied testing in Germany!

It has been quite a while since we’ve seen a review of the X6 M, which was released to much acclaim from the automotive press. Motor Trend now chimes in with their first test drive review, and they echo what many have said before them, calling the experience “maniacal” and its engineers “nutty.” Here are some of our favorite quotes from the FULL REVIEW:
We have added a live-look video of the BMW M underground garage for your viewing pleasure. It hopefully gives our readers a better sense of the mystique and aura of the environment, which only added to the truly special moment and the heritage of the collection of cars we were witnessing.
