BMW X6 M Sports Activity Coupé
The BMW 2010 X6 M (Motorsport) Sports Activity Coupé has Dynamic Performance Control (DPC), xDrive, special M suspensions and Adaptive Drive. The twin-scroll twin turbo 4.4 liter V8 M engine delivers 414 Kw (555 hp) at 6,000 rpm together with 677 Nm (500 lb-ft) of torque from 1,500 to 5,650 rpm. This will make it go from 0-60 mph (96.5 Km/h) in 4.5 seconds.

You can take one home for €108,500 if you live in Germany, and according to bmwblog it will be priced in the high $80,000 range for the US.

On the BMW X6 wikipedia page there’s the following about DPC and xDrive:

DPC is a drivetrain and chassis control system that works to regulate traction and especially correct over- and understeer by actively spreading out drive forces across the rear axle. Torque is split not only between the front and rear wheels (xDrive) but also from side to side at the rear for improved agility and added stability (through the DPC rear axle).
