Calm [Like a Bomb]

OK, first the bad. Fuel economy isn't great. Ride is not luxury car smooth..... Now the good stuff. Ultimate sleeper SUV: at a glance, many won't notice anything other than a 'typical' X3. Fits four comfortably. Typical [excellent] BMW brakes, handling, seating quality. Put it in sport plus, and hang on....quickest of several BMW's I have owned, including other M's. The competition version engine is an absolute beast in this small SUV: will pull away from almost anything on the road zero to sixty, and acceleration at speed [60 and up] is immediate and impressive. Utility of SUV with an engine to battle anything coming out of Germany, while flying just enough under the radar to avoid too much drama....

Excellent ride & handling, peppy twin turbo 4 cly., exceptional fit and finish, well appointed interior, outstanding technology that really works ! And the Traverse City Fox Motors Dealership is the best of best. After a full year of ownership, I must express the BMW X3 is the best vehicle I have ever owned ( I am 66 years old and have owned vehicle since I was 16 ) … absolutely nothing went wrong or disappointed us. Very good features, excellent performance and high quality top to bottom, front to back !

Super quick sleeper

I’ve owned a 2020 X.3 M competition the first couple months it was released I love absolutely everything about the car. It’s a pure rocketship as for a ride harshness, some people complain about, a lot changed for the better once I went to all season tires and passed the 5000 mile mark.I guess it needs a little time to break in. The Conti tires that sometimes come with the car from the dealer are like driving on hockey pucks basically meant for Summer driving on a track. They handle well but the ride quality is very harsh. That’s why you need to change to all season to enjoy this car the most the interior the quality is top notch in The Drive quality of this car makes it so much fun to drive! Always look forward to having to take long trips and to an excuse to drive this car so much fun

Perfect mix of utility and absurd overkill speed with handling that makes you forget its an SUV.
