just like a lot of BMWs, its for a very niche market. My wife for one! She loves the X6, but its too big, heavy, and expensive! now an X4 for around $55K loaded and she would be all over it. should still have enough trunk space for general usage, how many people constantly fill the X3 or X5 trunk to the brim anyway?

BUT this does beg the question, why the 3/4 series GT if you are going to have an X4? and what will be the price point, right in between the X3 and X5 which is pretty close already?

Guess BMW wants the strategy of capturing every segment and every $ they can, have $59K to spend, well a fully loaded X3 35i is ~$55K, and a X5 35i is ~$62K (with same options) so lets make a X4 to fit in there
