That is one of my favorite lines. I am going to write a book with my one-liners

We both know you are not the only one interested in the X6 that wouldn't consider the FX, just how Motive said they would buy the Porsche if they were rich. It seems the BMW/Porsche badge just will continue to attract people and people have no issues paying more for it.

Infiniti seems to have really improved upon the FX here with their usual value pricing, it looks like a dangerous competitor. Will the badge hurt it, especially when you load the price up with options. We shall see in coming months.

This is the first comparison we have seen, so in the upcoming months we will be better able to come to a more valid conclusion as reviews roll in.

 

The new FX looks too strange to me. On the other hand, the X6 looks very good.

 

Wow, the FX50 hit 60 in 5.2 and to 100 in 12.6 seconds. The Caynenne S times were 6.4 and 16.0

 

Now if infiniti would put that sweet engine into the G coupe... convertible. G50c would be > *

 

But guys, it's a BMW



MT got it pretty much right on, the only people buying this car are people who want the name and the style and could care less about driving a car that actually works well.

 

It could be a BM-tripple-U, it still sucks.

 

Comparing an Infiniti to a BMW is not the same as comparing an Infiniti to a Porsche.

Porsche's are much more expensive than Infiniti's, whereas BMW's are in the same ball park as the Infiniti's, though BMW's are usually the more expensive ones.

Infiniti is the direct competitor to BMW, whereas Porsche is just a whole other game.

Obviously, in terms of the badge, Porsche > Infiniti & BMW. It's another step up.

skater, yeah that is pretty common knowledge. Hell Porsche>Lexus

 

I don't think Porsche or anyone else is on the same level as infiniti. We might as well get use to the fact that Nissan/Infiniti will be the one which all others will be judged by when it comes to performance.

 

I'm sorry man I have to disagree. I have tried to reason with myself that others drive just as good but nothing under $120k drives as good as most Bimmers.

 

$70,000 Nissan GT-R>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>any BMW past, present or future.

 

Really? You have driven one? It has the same steering feel? That's great man! And for only $70K? Hell, where do I pick one up for that price?

 

You've been living under a rock for the last year or so??? Read the reviews. Even with the $20,000 markup, it's still under $120,000 and will beat anything BMW has to offer, past, present or future.

 

Features and performance aside, it took a car as ugly as the new FX to make the X6 look 'ok'.

 

People have to keep in mind that even if the X6 had 20hp and rode on 13 inch Daytons with 8 exhaust tips and a suspension from a Yugo there will be those that will still buy it just to be seen in a BMW. Same for other cars.
