X5 M / X6 M [Official] The new BMW X5 M and X6 M
The X5 M is the high-performance variant of the X5. In April 2009, the X6 M version was announced, with a 408 kW (547 hp) version of the BMW S63 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 engine. The BMW X5 M and X6 M are the first vehicles from BMW M GmbH to have xDrive all-wheel-drive system and automatic transmissions, and are also crossovers as opposed to passenger cars.
I've prepared a table for comparing German performance SUVs.

Wooaahhhhhh! Blistering performance! 4.2 0-100!?!?!?
It's really surprising how good these cars look considering the sh!t they're based on.
Another proof that you can give the M-Treatment to anything and it will look splendid!
Both cars look brutal yet I prefer the more conventional/less silly(goofy) looking X5M.
Is it the lower stance... the new grille, bumper or whatever that makes such a difference!?
I'm wow'ed!
PS: The new colors are a pleasure for the eye. I'd take the less in your face Donington Grey tho.
EDIT: Forgot to mention... THAT INTERIOR in the X6M... best BMW interior in ages!
Perfect mix of sporty and cozy. Modern yet conservative enough.

No configurator yet.
It's a basic one where you can play around with exterior colours, the wheels, and interior colours. Click on "360 view" in the bottom left.

Ahh you mean the 360 visualizer.
Unless anybody else knows differently, the next launch for the M Division will be the M2 Coupe in the middle of next year.
Yes. Visualizer then.

BMW M
BMW M GmbH, formerly known as BMW Motorsport GmbH, is a subsidiary of
BMW AG that manufactures high-performance luxury cars. BMW M ("M" for "motorsport")
was initially created to facilitate BMW's racing program, which was very successful
in the 1960s and 1970s. As time passed, BMW M began to supplement BMW's vehicle
portfolio with specially modified higher trim models, for which they are now most
known by the general public. These M-badged cars traditionally include modified engines,
transmissions, suspensions, interior trims, aerodynamics, and exterior modifications
to set them apart from their counterparts. All M models are tested and tuned at BMW's
private facility at the Nürburgring racing circuit in Germany.
