Then they called it an "M"? What does M have to do with this "thing"? I thought M stood for motorsport? lol

It is quite the vehicle!! Took it for a quick test drive but break in service still has not been completed.

I saw one today and can’t believe this is an M car - really sad how the brand has fallen.

Wrong. The base car sells for 2.3M RMB, which translates to ~334k USD before ~41k RMB luxury and vehicle taxes.
At this point almost all the buyers would go for higher end brands like Porsche/Aston/Ferrari/Maybach/Bentley you-name-it. Die hard bimmers would go for M5 at the very most |

Congratulations and decent spec! I personally would have added the gold trim but that’s just me. Btw is that chrome trim on the steering wheel?

The front and back of the XM look ok. The side, not so much. It reminds me of an Atlas, which for me is one of the ugliest piece of shit SUV’s on the market.
Remove the side trim - it looks terrible. Should’ve attempted going with frameless doors. |

This thing is horrific. Will be placed in the annals of horrible automotive styling next to the Pontiac Aztec. And unfortunately joining his baby brother, the G87 M2.

Here is a quick acceleration in it, prior to break in. So it is limited to 4k

Here’s one at Irvine BMW. I was ordering some parts and the dealer and didn’t expect an XM there but it’s there. It looks much better in black
Wish I took more pictures |

The black one looks good. Maybe black with gold. Dunno if I’ll get this or another x6m once lease is up.

… if I were the dealer, definitely putting my badge on that thing - so hideous you’d definitely garner some eyeballs 👀 |

Maybe they can tweak it enough for the LCI to make a difference
