Badges stay IMO. Why spend the wrong side of 70k on a car then make it indistinguishable from. A 40k one??

As a compromise, between the two different views (take em off or leave em on) how about moving the X6 badge across to the left hand side to even it out a little?
Saying that i dont think its a decision that will be troubling me in the near future, a bit out of my reach them babies, would love to have a go in one though, as i bet they are rapid.

Wheels don't look at all right both in style and the wy they sit (or don't !) in the arches.

Glad you have high gates to keep the peasants opposite out.

looking ******* nice to say the least.  Could you do me a favour and get a picture from the front so I can see the new Performance kit?

Cheers.

Had to read that twice to understand why you wanted to keep pheasants out  :D

I'm not sure I'd have phrased it quite the same as 535dboy, who is admittedly far more efficient than I am with his words, but I'd like to have seen the standard rims for comparison.  Either way, you pays your money and you takes your choice

That motor is truly mouth watering, I think it looks awesome & I used to enjoy bullying other cars in my X5 & that just takes it to another level!!  :))
