Please note that we filmed this video many many weeks ago, before current social distancing guidelines were put into place. Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy! I am working on finding new content to film and bring to the channel. So would you rather have the X5 or X6?
Great Job guys!! I watched you both last year on the BMW X5 and are the reason why I bought my 2019 BMW M Sport package 40i, but loaded to the max. I really love our Tanzanite color. Thanks for being so informative as I truly think you guys are the absolute best in reviewing automobiles. Take Care and be safe out there.
In all likelihood people purchase the X6 because its the car they want (hence the styling) versus those who purchase the X5 because they need it (hence the extra cargo room). At 6'2" I do not find any headspace problem sitting in the rear. Their is still plenty of cargo space in the X6, that makes worth having the better styling. Where was the cargo cover for the X5?
But people like me want a big car so I chose x6. Regular coupes are boring but an SUV coupe has such a presence because it’s so large and badass. It also has good off-road performance compared to a regular coupe so... also a regular SUV is also boring and looks plain and ugly like a stupid family car lol
I was looking at a 2020 fully spec BMW X5. But for that price tag they don't really hold there value anymore. Just look at there i8 used compared to new. I like the 2017 Audi R8 v10. The price tage is fairly similar. And even though I haven't driven one I'm sure it must be an amazing ride.
blackdynamit84 well comparing an R8 and an X5 is apples to oranges. But yes I agree a brand new BMW is a bad purchase, I’d much rather get a 2 year old model and save $40k
do you suggest to waiting for next bmw x6 or take this one? you have any news about what there will be next x6? at the end, do you suggest today the adative m suspention or take the 2 axe air suspention? i don't want that the car will be too hard when sport mode but also soft in comfort. thank you eddie
Not bmw the German mind is cool but complicated and over engineered where it doesn't need to be makes the cars big fat and heavy we need to make the cars lighter put less technology in on the cars will last longer I'm modern engine it seems to be worn out after 60 or 70000 miles of being driven hard where is he 46 would last five or six times that + more
Extremely beautiful cars guys, I hope you both enjoy your Ultimate driving machines. M50 i - doesn't have the S63 engine, it has the N63 motor. Of course the S is the M series motor. I wouldn't buy any BMW without the Sports Package. It has the nicer seats, the suspension is M series and a few other things. I would buy either one of these models, they fit my mojo. The ZF transmission is extremely good and found in BMWs. it has life time transmission oil. Why don't they have dipsticks? because German engineering is smart. When ever you take a dip stick out of other cars, you risk dirt entering places it shouldn't be. Air filter - never take your air filter out unless you plan to change it. Never use air to clean your air filter you will damage it. Dust around the air filter when removing it can fall into the area dirt doesn't belong so make sure you clean the area after you remove to replace your air filter.
Putting Fake M badges looks cool...(5:47). right mom? I wonder where else putting an M badge looks cool??? Mom answers: On a Real M car.. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The M badge is acceptable because it has the factory M package. I have it on my 22 X6 but on the fender vents similar to the M version. That's also how the European models are delivered. What I think is cheesey is when folks have a base model and stick an M badge on it. That's just fakers tryn'a be players!
I Think that Bmw x5 is a family car, like it is bigger compared to bmw x6, also its sits are more comfortable and are made for long roads. Bmw x6 is a sport jeep, for young people, who like to Drive fast and Show up.
I am so shallow that the layout BMW have adopted with reverse tachometer, is a instant no buy. Loved the wheel and binnacle layout in the f30, but these newer beemers, no thank you. Audi and Benz do it right. With my experiance with germans, a Lexus would be my choice right now. The quality of zhe germans have been abmysmal of late imo... Edit: The crystal you could have had in a freaking Volvo 6 years ago, and Volvo do interiors right, why can't BMW get as good as a company less than 1/10th of its size?
I feel like Bimmer’s aren’t about the electronics and whatnot but rather about the drive. Granted, you should expect good quality (and you do get it) but what you truly expect from a Bimmer is a fantastic driving vehicle, one could say, it’s the ultimate driving machine (I’ll let myself out)
@@itsy3h I get why you feel this way. There are other brands that do the driving bits, close as not an issue, just as well. Have you checked out the newer benzes? They are close to were beemer was a decade ago. Now they are so close to a freaking Infinity it is not worth the dough...
rekleif personally, i feel like Mercs are primarily for comfort, when I think Merc I think of an S class, of course there is the C class and E class (and now the A class) all with their AMG models, but I’m a BMW fanboy at heart, and will always prefer my Bimmers to a Merc
@@itsy3h Well I guess there are other things happening in the world other than this stamp some has put on MB, but if you have not driven a A, C or E-class amg in a while(or a S or RS Audi) you really can not judge this fairly imho...
rekleif who said I haven’t driven them? Before I bought my M5 comp, I test drove basically everything similar to it and beyond, RS7, S4, S5, RS6, C63(s), E63s (and the wagon variants), C43 (and then of course, other brands, but that’s just the Audi’s and Mercs I drove). From my personal preference, they are all great cars, the updated Audi’s and Mercs have a great amount of tech, but there’s just something about Bimmer’s driving that brings me back every single time. I had the same debacle when buying my M2, they are just such fun cars imo (nothing against Audi or Merc, just my preference)
I’ve never really been a huge fan of the aesthetics of an suv but I have a really special place of hatred for a crossover suv. This is because it says to me the owner has spent more money on the less practical vehicle which is not really sporty or practical just sort of half and half, screams “I have way to much money to know what to do with”. So I would go x5 (but really would buy and m5/5series or the touring)
@@shobizz3000 my pastor when I lived in DC call his suburban a truck and I always made fun of him for that I moved to Mid Michigan though so it's a little bit harder
If you ever feel like you need an X6, get a coupe sedan. X5 makes more sense all around. The grills aren’t as ugly on the SUVs as they are on the sedan, but they’re still not pretty. Great video as always Eddie.
Please note that we filmed this video many many weeks ago, before current social distancing guidelines were put into place. Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy! I am working on finding new content to film and bring to the channel. So would you rather have the X5 or X6?
Neither, id have Audi q8. If it’s just between x5/x6, I’ll take x5.
X5 is a family car and an X6 is a sporty badass car.
The x6 beats all lineups.. its so sexy! 🔥
X6 all the way.
That X5 in blue and brown interior is beautiful 😍
Paul M thanks! Took my time and went over all the choices when ordering it 👍🏽
So The X6 is like the chick you wanna hook up with and the X5 it’s your best marriage option?
Exactly this is how I feel!
15:50 The lighting in the glass is called: Panoramic Sky Lounge LED Roof...I just spec on my X6...my cousin has the X5 and it looks really cool.

Comparison between 2020 X5M Competition and X6M Competition please.
Great vid. Would like to see more comparisons with you two!
dsher503 thanks!

I'm trying to get the x5 m50i. My question is should I get the air suspension? Does it really make a difference if I'm getting 22inch rims.
Yes
X5M....probably not competition . Thanks for the two of you sharing your observations and thoughts on differences. 👍👍
Yeah it's absolutely a big step up in terms of aggression and performance
dlorbieski thank you! It was a fun vid to make and interesting to check out all the small differences
I understand the x6.. if you want an SUV get the x5 with more cargo space. If you want something sporty just get a regular car/coupe!
But people like me want a big car so I chose x6. Regular coupes are boring but an SUV coupe has such a presence because it’s so large and badass. It also has good off-road performance compared to a regular coupe so... also a regular SUV is also boring and looks plain and ugly like a stupid family car lol
psssh, like ima buy a luxurious SUV to haul stuff... and if my kids head starts touching the roof, lol, he needs his own car ^ ^
X6 all the way!
I am getting the X5 with the Turbo Charge and the V8 tu engine , gas is cheap these days.
Don't the 50's have speakers under the cars to make them sound like that?
6:59 User Error
I laughed too hard at that
No Chaser G I swear it’s only done that twice ever. And the second time was filming this lol
Jeff Evans aww man lol that’s how life gets ya sometimes 😂
Any concerns with the 4.4 v8 twin turbo?
What the difference between the 40i and 50i Version of the BMW X5
blackdynamit84 engine. Twin turbo 6 cylinder versus twin turbo V8
3.0L Inline 6 vs the 4.4 V8!

@@shobizz3000 I totally agree. Way too much money for that. Wait 3 years and it will be half that price.
do you suggest to waiting for next bmw x6 or take this one? you have any news about what there will be next x6? at the end, do you suggest today the adative m suspention or take the 2 axe air suspention? i don't want that the car will be too hard when sport mode but also soft in comfort. thank you eddie
Great review - but one thing you made no comment on was how different the air suspension from the m-adaptive on your x6?
X5 All Day
X5 all day own a x5 2003 205000 on dash beautiful car
Bro I'm so glad I fkund your channel! Great review and video style/quality!
Great idea to compare the two, thanks for sharing.
The X6 looks way better
no, is not, calm down
Holy shit the X5 has a boat load of cargo space
What camera are u using?
I love how simple operation like closing hatch, as in video, takes a PHD to do. Gotta love BMW 🤣

There is no difference between an m50i and 50i x5 at least for the European spec BMW models. Is there any with the US spec ones?
The newer M50i makes significantly more power. We cover the specifics in the video
Extremely beautiful cars guys, I hope you both enjoy your Ultimate driving machines.
M50 i - doesn't have the S63 engine, it has the N63 motor. Of course the S is the M series motor.

Both are gorgeous It’s hard to compare... it’s like right hand and a left hand 🤚 vs ✋
Regarding the reclining rear seats; You need to have the 7-Seat option on the X5 for them to recline.
That sucks because my last one didn’t hVe 7 seating and stil reclined.
@@shobizz3000 Interesting. We had an F15 X5 that wouldn't recline the rear seats, so the G05 is no different to us.
I feel tha same way...i wanted a X6 but you lose so much room....and I'm 6'1
X6 color name ?
Great video. I can’t decide which one to get lol.
They f up the grille imo. Too big weird shape
Looks good on x6 because it’s a very big car so it’s balanced. Looks way better than a small girl imo
X5 ♥️🦅
What a scenic background for this video 🤔
That was very informative and entertaining!! 😎
We are go to do some mMutual accelerating events, concurrently, in close proximity” , i.e. race. LOL!
Herb I cracked up with his incognito verbiage lol

Love the wheels LOL
Those M badges have to go.
To the non-car people they are meaningless.
To the car crowd, they are laughing at them.
The M badge is acceptable because it has the factory M package. I have it on my 22 X6 but on the fender vents similar to the M version. That's also how the European models are delivered. What I think is cheesey is when folks have a base model and stick an M badge on it. That's just fakers tryn'a be players!
x6 looks better but functionality is x5

Bmw x6 is a sport jeep, for young people, who like to Drive fast and Show up.
Great video! Thank you Sir!
Love the video
Thanks!
Thank you!
good video guys!
Within the first two mintues they are very different
Love the x6 4.0 td fast m,sport great car i have a 08 PLATE drives nice a 3.0 td baby of the pack but love it
X6 looks like an overweight sports car while the X5 is it's own thing.
Both vehicles could use a wide body kit.
是我的就好了🤣🤣
X5, especially now that it looks that goof. The X6 is just yuck.
Bro got caught with the fake badge 😂💀
No matter how hard I try.. X6 looks don’t work for me.

was that weed in the cup holder?
Maybe 1 child, are you kidding me? This is a big car but maybe not for an average overweighted American family.
Americans call school buses as their suvs they better off driving RV

Man those are both super nice 💯
the x6 is a very controversial car.
One definitely looks better
It's snowing right now in mid Michigan
Again calling an SUV a truck lol
Looked like Mexico to
Over all great video
Which one do you think looks better?
@@EddieX X5 although with the x6 being the m650 or what ever it definitely sounds better
@@EddieX also I watched the video at 2x speed as I'm baking and don't have time
Calling an SUV a truck is my trademark now 😂
@@shobizz3000 my pastor when I lived in DC call his suburban a truck and I always made fun of him for that I moved to Mid Michigan though so it's a little bit harder
$519 per tire 🙃 I changed All four my 2011 Grand Cherokee tires with Michelin LTX for about that much
Paul M yeah I was not too happy about that. Being a 22” wheel that is 315 width, they get pretty pricey 😢
Take the M badge off bruh. Not a good look.
Well bmw put it on
No, they didn't. Ya boy did.
X5 is hideous and x6 is beautiful
If you ever feel like you need an X6, get a coupe sedan. X5 makes more sense all around. The grills aren’t as ugly on the SUVs as they are on the sedan, but they’re still not pretty.
Great video as always Eddie.
X6 are good with off-road and some people like big cars because they’re much more badass.
Bruh we wanna see the car not your faces man.
Lol
