I'm sure the X6 is very fast and very good etc and it may even be a whole new class of car (a SAC of coupe).
But as biggbn said, it won't sell for any of the official reasons the marketing department use to justify its existence. Nobody needs a Sports Activity Coupe. It'll sell because it's huge and very very aggressive-looking and wears the right badge.
Calling all Small men who thought the X5 wasn't angry enough and the Dodge Ram was too 'country' - your new car has arrived!

Props to BMW for turning out all the weird designs of the last few years. They keep things interesting and some of the designs almost work.

"When there's a new Alfa, sales are very good at first," said the company's Italian spokesman, "but people don't come back for another one."
