The complete new 2008 X6 pricing has just be released to dealers and we’ve got them! We will update this post when we recieve the wholesale prices as well.
Base price for xDrive35i is $52,500 and base price for xDrive50i is $63,000. A bit of a mark up from its X5 brethren. The xDrive50i comes standard with Navigation and multi-contour seats. The X6 will feature many technologies that are new to BMW, like torque vectoring all-wheel drive.
Packages and individual options are as follows:
Here it is, the book each US 1 Series owner will get their car for 2008. What you see in the photos below is a pre-production copy. This is number 56 out of 120 that were made.
With the introduction of the 1 Series coupe and convertible BMW has gone retro, at least in marketing. At releases they have mentioned comparisons to the 2002, had them present for the viewing public and have even named a concept with the suffix tii. So what is the reason for all this? Is it to feed the publics’ love of nostalgia in order to sell more cars? Is it simply BMW going back to their origins and what made people fall in love with the brand: a practical and sporty car?
That is for you to decide but here at Bimmerfile we thought we should give the 1972 2002tii an introduction to all those too young to have experienced the car in its hay-day or for those of you that wish you had never sold yours a trip down memory lane!
Based on the reader comments from our recent 135i review, it looks as if quite a few of you have questions. Lots of questions. And since we’ve driven the entire 1 Series range and learned just about everything there is to know about the car from the recent BMW press event, we’re here to answer them. We’ll start by answering a few of the questions posed in the comment section of our recent review. If you have any further questions not answered here, be sure to ask them in the comment section below. We’ll plan on posting answers (if we can) next week.
Q: Do you think we’ll get any idea about when the DCT will make to the 135i in April too?
A: I don’t expect the DCT anytime soon on the 1 series and it might not make it during this generation. However you can expect it eventually.

The Geneva Motor Show (4 – 16 March) will mark the world premiere of the BMW Vision EfficientDynamics, a concept car designed to showcase the future direction of BMW’s performance enhancing and emissions lowering innovations. Mild ActiveHybrid technology is combined with a twin-turbocharged four-cylinder diesel engine, a new eight-speed automatic gearbox and even roof-mounted solar panels, and all shrouded in a BMW X5 body.
BimmerFile is dedicated to bringing you the most interesting news, links and reviews related to the BMW brand and it's vehicles.
We believe in the old school BMW ownership experience. We believe in garage nights with a six pack and some friends. We believe in 2002s, in E30 M3s and E34 540s with the 6 speed. We believe in progress in both design and engineering but we haven't lost sight of what made the brand and its products great all those years ago. And yes, we believe in the manual transmission.
We long for the days of the wave and for the days of roll-up windows. Yet we love the gadgets on the inside and the xenons on the outside.
In short, we can't get enough of BMWs. This is BimmerFile.
