Trouble finding release date
Ladies and Gents,
Despite my best efforts, I have not been able to find any information about X6 and X6M release dates either on Google or the forum. I emailed David at Steve Thomas BMW a few days ago and haven't heard back. That's a shame since I have family in LA. I could have flown in, stayed the weekend and drove home. I was thinking of going with a Cayenne Turbo but so far the X6 styling turns me on a lot (lot) more. Does anyone have any info about when I could put in an order? Thanks, Patrick |

So i talked to BMW in Germany and they told me that order will start in October, but the presentation for X5M/X6M will be in April 15
I am not quite sure how this Information works with the details of the production information you posted again, and i donīt know if there is a difference for the american market. I also thought the presentation will be in Paris this october, but there are several informations that it will be LA in november. Maybe Scott26 has some more infos |

The real question is - when the announcement re: power plant/etc. figures will be made and the looks unveiled. Maybe during the Paris motor-show? Wouldn't post an order w/o actually seeing WTF you're ordering, would you? ))

Orders are already being accepted. I have an appointment booked with my salesman this evening to order mine.
From what I hear, all primary allocations (in Canada anyways) will be done on a pre-booking basis with regular dealer allocations happening only after all pre-orders are filled. First vehicles are expected to be delivered sometime in the 2nd half of Feb. I would suspect the official reveal will happen sometime at the Paris Autoshow and the full order guide will be released shortly thereafter. |

I heard from the dealer that they have already taken 5 pre-orders since they started accepting them (in the last couple of weeks I think - I imagine other dealers are probably doing the same thing).
Timing worked out well for me, I started mulling over replacing the E70 about 6 months ago. I've been harassing my dealer about the F85 ever since. Ordering sight unseen isn't such a big deal for me. I am pretty well 100% sure that it will be a better drive and have a better interior fit out than the E70. |

Im now hearing some further confusion about launch timing of the F85/F86. I had initially heard that they would be launched at the Paris Motor Show starting this Saturday. Now Ive heard that Paris will launch the F16 X6 and the M Sport diesel version, but, the F85/F86 will be seen at the LA Auto Show in November.
For me sooner is better, so, Im hoping for Paris, but, I guess we'll see in a few days. |
