I work in sales at the largest BMW dealer in Texas. We received 6 XM’s for the entire year of 2023 and they all sold. What I can tell you is that the type of buyer was not your typical X5M buyer (which is usually someone coming from a smaller M model and needs an SUV). So I’m not sure why so many people keep comparing the two. You mentioned in the video that you don’t understand the comparison to the G Wagen, well those are the types of people who are buying XM’s. Nicely put, they aren’t car people.

Interesting, this is exactly what I thought. Value is up to what people are willing to pay. This seemed to me, to be, ... Dunno how to say it... Like a luxury bag or something. People spend 30K for them or more, because of perceived value. It's not targeting x5m buyers. Some used to think this was -ugly- unattractive but then Tesla showed what ugly really looks like.
@ajlee69337 ай бұрын
@@Sold_a_dummy correct. It’s all about image with the XM. The guy I sold one to never owned a BMW before. He traded two vehicles, a Trackhawk and GLE 63s. He never asked the typical M car buyer questions. His biggest concerns were how the exhaust sounds, all the lighting features.

I thought this higher trim package was called the Red Label, not just Label. Going on their site to build one, and it is just Label. That to me sounds really stupid. It should definitely be Red Label since the XM logo is in red, you can get the exterior trim in red, you can get red trimmed wheels, and the interior trim and seats only come with the red on them. Plus, for this much money, you still don't get ventilation for the rear seats. X5, X6, and X7 should all have that as an option, yet they don't. Also, BMW needs to add a digital rear view mirror to each of these.

@@jeffs6090 All true, but the iX M60 has been shown to achieve a 0-60 time of 3.2 (BMW claims 3.6). So, off the line the iX M60 is just as fast. Though it does have a much lower top speed. The iX M60 has air suspension as well. And, I think the iX might have more interior storage space. But, I doubt many people cross shop between the two. I have an iX xDrive 50 and I love it. I could have almost bought two for the price of this XM label model. I did see an XM at the dealership and it definitely has nicer finishes and quite a presence.

I know they had a real locking diff on the first generation X7's but they discontinued that feature? Build a stand alone real SUV/SAV that can go off the beaten path? Make it rugged and purposefully capable to climb, Wade thru water, crawl, and go anywhere? Tired of seeing senseless vehicles that are one dimensional? Thank God for the INEOS GRENADIER 🎉
