Yea alright!

17/19mpg that is some *****ing technology holmes,

I dunno about you all but i'm going to make sure if I get a hybrid, it damn well gets under 20mpg. Way to go in the right direction, before I was *****ing about lexus mid 20's sheeesh.


only 80 something grand too,way to safe the environment!

in the same market as the cayenne. The GTS gets 11/17 so i guess it is a step in the right direction.

IMO the X6 was already going the wrong direction in general.

Wait a minute (yes, I know, three posts in a row. suck it), the hybrid is a V8 too? Does BMW realize that the starter motor for a V8 doesn't count as a hybrid motor?
