2Door X6...
« on: July 14, 2010, 04:13:31 PM »

Yup,
Incase you didn't think this confused SUV couldn't get any more impractical.  Why not try removing two doors!?  That said, it doesn't look that out of place...

"It doesn't look out of place" until you realize how big and tall this thing is, Turbo.  I agree it looks good, but for me only if I imagine it as 2/3 it's real size.

If this was a small coupe, like an Alfa Romeo or something like that (smaller than a Golf), that would look great indeed.


However, just park it besides any regular car and (IMHO) it will look quickly very odd indeed.


Can this be a two door a coupe?  Look how high the hood is relative to the man in the picture:

Now look at this picture.  It dwarfs the opposition by miles.  Would you say the CLS is a small car?  It looks tiny next to an X6... LOL

Honestly, a two door version of that thing would be TOO BIG...It would more sense to make a pickup truck out of it, IMHO.

It is an interesting looking idea but the wheelbase seems almost as short as it is wide.  That can't be good for handling.

I'm with RH, you have to think of it as 3series sized to make sense.

This is not real and never will be
Russian tuner desided to take existing car and remove 2 doors

So it's not smaller or any different, same exact car as any X6, just less doors

Here is the source Link

It was indeed "created" by a russian tuner.  Bummer they never made a real one...  I mean, totally unnecessary but its already an x6 so why not?

Hurst,
Its an SUV, of course its going to be taller than a CLS.  That picture is a bit misleading. The X is a bit closer to the camera than the CLS b/c its actually an inch shorter in overall length.
