BMW has been going off-beat with its model range. We first had the X6, then the 5 series GT to be followed up by the 3 series GT and these two – The BMW X5 M and the BMW X6 M.

While the M Series brand is under criticism for these 2 new models during concepts and market testing, they have been both equally well received at the New York Auto Show. To ensure BMW M DNA in every model, BMW has done the unthinkable – They have made M versions of their X5 SUV and X6 SAC. These two models are going after the successful Porsche Cayenne Turbo and Mercedes Benz ML63 AMG.

BMW’s M (Motorsport) division has finally entered into the world of high performance SUV’s. Prices in USA are expected to be in the range of $90,000.
