The first X6 was an unexpected success and bmw moneymaker and you should have included that bit of history. Despite the motoring press bashing it, people were buying it like crazy. Target groups were the soccer milf, the rich kids in Dubai or the pro athlete who scored his first contract. And others are now imitating it, eg Merc GLC Coupe, so in my book its been a success.

Mr. Goose, ppreciate the hard work makes work not as unbearable. Hope all is well and glad I can finally support. Shoutout to Jack too

Immediately gave a like for that Quasimodo.

BMW has more segments than a Jenga tower. How the hell is somebody supposed to pick a car lol. Might as well just get an X5

the people who buys these cars are the ones ordering shot mixes with the funny name at the bar

18 months ago I purchased a 640i GT largely based on your review. If one doesn't want an SUV but wants the ride height, the GT is so much better than the X6. It actually specs a larger cargo space.

I just don't understand the whole coupe like SUV concept. Not a single plus with a whole lot of negatives.

For those of us that drive x6’s it’s about the power and beauty really is in the eye of the beholder.

One of the very few journalists that I trust, not to mention the extremely high production quality and the humor. Thank you, so much for honest, high quality automotive related content.

I saw an Accord Crosstour earlier and I thought it would be the low point of the day. Then this video appeared and the earlier trauma was forgetten. These seem like they are tailor-made for the would-be sedan shopper who is afraid that if they hit a pedestrian with their new sedan, the pedestrian might survive and sue them.

Look we all know y’all make amazing reviews and this one was as well! But what impressed me is you have backup audio that also works! Y’all attention to detail is phenomenal! Thank you for all the content :D

My name is Skylar and this is my BMW X6. I just left a dim sum restaurant while taking a vertical selfie video about how much I enjoyed my meal. I continue to film this video while driving to pick up three more pairs of nylon yoga jeans.

I'm sorry gooseman, as great as your cinematography is, I had to skip the montage of exterior shots because I could feel my eyes starting to bleed.

BMW: $97k today, $80k tomorrow. $60k next week...

Always great to see a Jack Singapore review

My wife drives a 2017 X6, and she loves it. It has one of the high end interior packages (the cool kids refer to it as peanut butter guts). Very nice inside, rides great, good power. We can fold down the rear seats and throw in our 2 Oru kayaks and head out for a day paddling, which you cannot do in a sedan or coupe. We drove it from California to Florida towing a 16 foot enclosed trailer with our racecar inside in total comfort. We have bombed through Angels Crest Forest in it and had a great time, despite it's weight and size. Is the rear seat and cargo space compromised for the styling? Without a doubt. I have sat back there in comfort for long durations and I am 5'11", but anyone taller would start to complain. My wife doesn't like the look of the X5, so this is a great compromise. She gets a car she loves, and lets me borrow it to tow the racecar to the track on some weekends and haul our kayaks around on the others. Is BMW slicing the pie thinner and thinner with all the X models? Absolutely. They wouldn't be doing the X6 for another generation if it wasn't profitable. To each their own! My daily is a 2019 Miata, but I can still appreciate the X6 for what it is. Keep up the great videos!

Whats with the Chevy SS (aka Holden Commodore SS)

I've always seen people talk shit and hate on the X6 and X6M. But you can't deny it's a huge succes. At first they don't give a shit, now the truth is every luxury and performance manufacturers are doing the Coupe SUVs. The first follower is the last gen GLE63s coupe which is a true beast just like the X6M. And after that came the Cayenne turbo coupe, the Urus and the not that coupe 'RsQ8'. You can't deny X5M, the normal GLE63S and the Cayenne turbo are a little bit too boring for some customers. Not everyone wants a real two door coupe or a supercar. Or you would assume thay the X6M buyers already had some supercar and real practical vehicles. The X6M really feels more gangster than any other BMWs.

When ugliness and disproportion becomes the norm, things get a little dangerous. There are so many bad car designs nowadays, that the public starts to believe that they are beautiful. Thank you for pointing at the right direction.

God, I wish you guys would take a trip to Europe and review our BMWs. Like the base 5 series with a 2 liter diesel and 150 HP. Would be hilarious!

Crossed his arms and said “550i” so confidently like he was right😭😭 hilarious

Love these videos. This is my first month as a Patron and I'm already loving it. I'm going absolutely nowhere!!

What has been seen, cannot be unseen. Thanks Mark and Jack. My only wish is that car companies bring back actual wagons; that are, in many ways, just as capable, and easier to live with on a daily basis. Thank you to VW, Volvo, Mercedes, and to some extent, Subaru (does the Prius Wagon count??) for still building and selling wagons in the US. The US needs more wagons, and fewer abominations...

I could wait and pick one of these up used after it depreciates by 75%. The motor alone would be worth it.

Correction: X6 was the first, the GLE coupe came later. MB said, "Lets make our own version of BMW's Turd"

The rear taillights are actually unique. When they make all that high style marketing material this actually looks the part. Abstract, yes. Pleasing to everyone, no. The equivalent X5 looks like a Grand Cherokee from the rear. Sure its less practical but you won't see them all over the place and the belt line in the rear is so high it looks intimidating compared to your standard SUV.

Hate coupovers. A more ridiculous segment I cannot imagine

The X6 practically started the coupe-suv segment. It created a niche market where Mercedes and even Porsche now cater to.

That face @8:05 .. was my exact reaction. For some reason this was all the video I needed on this model .. blissfully short. Excellent video and nice skits in-between.

Thank you so much for adding the arrows when referring to different components in the undercarriage section!

Waiting for that SS review as it sits behind you

An upload from you two in the morning is my favorite way to blow through the first hour of work

When you need 500 hp to get to the mall.

*I guess I’m part of the minority that actually likes the X6 designs :(*

I have a feeling that song choice wasn't a mistake 2:07

The X6 is basically a properly proportioned sedan, like we used to have in the 1940s. But we became used to the squished cars in the 1960s and that stupid trend became the norm. The only demerit that I see is that X6 is a liftback. But then KIA Stinger is like that too, and it gets a pass from the media. Nobody who complains about the CUV trend and prefers sedans has any right to complain about X6, then.

You know that position dogs get into when they take a dump? It looks like that... lol...

I love my new 2021 X6. It's unique and better looking than the traditional boxy suv

If I could watch youtube on my old flip phone I would have never upgraded

The sun came out for one of your videos!!! Great work as always, the best car reviewers on or off line.

I got more excited seeing you standing in front of a chivvy SS than I did for the entire rest of this video

"Coupe like SUV" I want to die.

Jack is really, really good. You guys make a killer team in these videos.

Your content is so good I watch every video intently. Even videos on $64k useless vehicles for morons. Congrats on 400k. It might have taken longer than other automotive channels, but you didn't drop quality, didn't pander, and never gave in to clickbaiting, and there's a lot to respect in that.

That title is so fitting

ALWAYS love the camera work and music in these videos! Great job goose!

But Cayenne coupe looks better, and Cayenne has way better front visibility around A pillar.

Don’t get Americans fussing over the X6’s exterior while they are building SUVs that are mini-buses😂🤣 The X6 is incredible in the flesh. Whereas The Cadillac Escalde is just a train carriage😅😂😂

I have an appreciation for how consistently good your audio is after that short bit there. People commonly say how good the cinematography is (and it is) but audio video to video and location or scenario to scenario?... the best of anyone I watch. Also this X6 is truly hideous and undignified, there's going to be SO many of these running around on leases. IT'S PERFECT.

Its beautiful IMO, they started the segment now every company have a x6 wannabe

Savage Geese channel is so underrated. The video quality is unmatched

This is the best and most fun auto channel on YT. Thank You Guys!!!

Quasi cameo was a nice touch 🔔

I thought the point of the liftback bodystyle was either fuel efficiency (see Prius), or lower mass center (Mazda6 hatch vs. Mazda6 wagon). This car has neither.

The rear looks like a Pontiac Aztec. Are people BLIND

Your vids really are the best out there among car reviewers. The editing, the music, the transitions, the information are all without doubt the best. Only flaw is sometimes you're bit harsh on transmissions and performance, but understandable considering those are the kinds of cars you like and own.

All good until rod bearings fail, timing chain gets loose, electronics fail... God, after 2 BMWs in my life I did what I rarely do - I promised myself to never buy BMW again. True nightmare.

BMW's answer to the Pontiac Aztek.

"That was 200" Love it.

The camera work honestly is something else!!!

"That was 200...." haha nice transition ending 👌

I like when the Audio fails and the video is still above average quality. Phenomenal review again!

I think it's rare that sarcasm is described as delicious, but that about sums up this video. Well done.

I actually like the looks of this vehicle.

1:19 hahaha the guy puking from the hunchback is priceless xD

BMW is doing a great job of making the Customer choose what they want. All the permutations of the chassis and engines gives me a "have it your own way" style of choice when it comes to selection

Can we talk about the Chevy SS in your background? When is that video coming out?

One of The proper reviewers ever existed.

I honestly, no troll, love the way it looks. I don't know what you're all hating on. Seriously.

really appreciate the flip phone reminding us to subscribe!

I wish they'd learn to integrate the screens into the dash this trend where they are all exposed makes them look like they just hot glued it to the dash and makes it look cheap.

The arrows are a nice touch

I dig the Chevy SS. Saw one with Holden badges the other day and I did a hard double take.

SavageGeese's automotive photography is legendary.

Looked like the test car had some serious wear on the inside of the tires

400k and more to come. Always love the content!

I just clicked the 'subscribe' button and 'liked' this video, Your content is high grade and to the point and enjoyable to watch. But thats where we start to differ on this cars review. I absolutely love the exterior of the X6 and it is much more sporty to drive then its sibling the X5. Not everyone needs the practicality of an suv. There is a demographic that's beyond having a family to move around and no longer needs the Costco runs and we are back to wanting a more sporty drive which these 'SAV's are filling that niche. I own a 2013 X5 diesel and also an 2022 X2 XDrive 28i. Both are great at what they are designed for but I get more enjoyement behind the wheel of the X2. Looking forward to more reviews even if you do get them wrong on occasion.

Y'all do an incredible with your video presentation and editing! It is phenomenal

The engineering investment in the like/subscribe/bell thing with the flip phone is slightly less than what BMW paid to style the exterior of this vehicle, and yet it looks so much better.

I liked the original X5 back in the early 2000's. Other than that I have never cared much for BMW SUVs. Thank you for reviewing this vehicle anyway and entertaining me with your humour. (:

I wonder, has anybody every actually met a person that wanted one of these “coupesuvs” and listened to the purchasing rationale? It’s like a compromise of a compromise. No matter what the purchasing rationale there will always be something that is better.

Jake is the only person in the world who would note the "door cards" as a major difference 🤣

I don't really understand the continual ugly comments. It is just a more coupe looking SUV. I understand the practicality argument, but continuing to harp on the looks is not really something a reviewer should do. We can see the vehicle. We know what it looks like. We can determine on our own if we like the looks or not. We don't need you to say over and over again how you don't like what it looks like.

X6 is still the gold standard for Coupe SUV

I'm amazed by how hard they tried to made it look as uGLEee as possible...

“At $97000 this is less money” that outro blooper was gold I’m Fucking dying 😂😂 More people need to sub to this channel y’all deserve it.

With all due respect, the video starts at 02:58 for me! And SG goes straight away with the criticism and irony that got him almost half-million subscribers :D

No fan of this segment but there are people who appreciate & buy these cars that's why it still exist As the title itile says I cover my eyes & respect individual preferences A-1 video review

7:50 - the tone of the drivers voice indicates that he loves how this X6 drives, even while he can’t stop complaining about it ….. actions > words, I think you guys secretly love this ride. later on - “power is tremendous” and “this thing is so stupid fast” …..

Excellent review! 👏🏻👏🏻

loved the humor, would of liked to hear more of the ending with the x6 m50i being a bargain compared to the Porsche

Even if i have zero interest in the subject vehicle, I always watch to see the amazing cinematography and to support the channel

Ready for the SS video!

I am tired simple 4-door sedans and bored with the squared (or even semi-squared) up SUVs, this car is fantastically offers something different (not ugly per the reviewer)...........Love it. Furthermore to the reviewers, it's a X6 M50i not 550i. I appreciate the review of underneath the X6.

Absolutely love your videos guys. Keep up the awesome work! Cheers from Sweden

It's about being different. The person with money wants to stand and not be like everyone else. Owning a X6 definately establishes that narrative

Mark, you can't just wear that t-shirt and not explain. Great video as always and I appreciate the honesty and not pandering to the manufacturers.

The music was just great, and as always so is the rest of the video

I died at the hunchback cutscene
