It is amazing to me how small and sleek the car looks in those pictures. In person it is BIG!
It is also heavy as hell! Same weight as an X5.

Has anyone seen the Chateau leather in person?

From the pics it almost looks a little purple.

It's not really purple like in the pic above. It's more like a dark red. The saleman has actually given me the sample to take home. There you go:

Not true!

Please get your facts right. The X5 and X6 equipped with the only 2 engines worth of comparing (the 3 liter diesel single turbo and TT) have the same weight.
