I wouldn't care if they were the exact same price..... I still say the M50i is a better vehicle.

M50i pros:
M50i - Same power capability once tuned
M50i - available air suspension
M50i - Available tow package for my motorcycle
M50i - more comfortable seats
M50i - cheaper insurance
M50i - $20k+ cheaper purchase price.

Full M pros:
Full M - cooler bumpers.
Full M - bragging rights that you drive a "full M" vehicle.

I'm with you. I suspect that most people who buy an M50i could easily afford an X5M, if that's what they wanted. Both are awesome cars that do somewhat different things. For me at least, the M50i is the far better choice.
