Ah what a vehicle (car) (suv) (sav)....whatever....it has lots of room and is practical, well like, a Suv. True story; i drove my friends porsche 911 4S and the he got a 911 Turbo S, i love both, the turbo S is not worth 200k more than the 4s at all, 443hp vs 640hp, yes but anyway, I would have bought the 911 4s for 180k, but did not want to spend that much money on a second car, so I bought 1 car that genuinely for me does everything I want and need. It's the x3m. You don't need the competition model it's only 30hp more, and when your hp is in and around 500 hp, 30 hp more or less is a moot point to discuss let alone feel. 0.01 to 60mph is not much unless you make your living racing cars, then ok....but the the case for this vehicle. Driving the porsche was very exciting and exhilarating and you felt special driving it.....I honestly have the exact same feeling driving this car and I can do it with a washing machine in the back which is just nuts if you think about it. It is fast as F%$^! I mean really porsche fast, actually this car is faster than the 9*11 4s, but let's give the credit to the turbo s at 300k plus to be faster, but not by much.......not by much......i've gone to 270kmh no problem and feels stable like the porsche, I only notice the wind noise due to height at about 240kmh, and get to 200kmh in seconds, really fast. might tune mine to 600hp, we'll see. love it and covers all the bases and then some......amazing vehicle.......really does it all so well....and 2/3 cheaper than a 911 and as much fun, so was a win win for me.

Okay, so here we are. 2 years later, 35000 miles. I’m pretty disappointed but greatfull at the same time. Positives: The interior is still so awesome. It still looks new although my daughter has gotten ink on the seats, spilt milkshakes etc. The type of material is exceptional as I was able to use a little soap and water and fully remove the ink. Love the ability to change the interior lights. It’s really cool especially when driving at night. The options to choose between BMW and Apple Car Play is great bonus for phone connections. The sound system plays great. I have NOT had any issues with speakers. I am disappointed that you can’t hear as well when the windows are open. The music almost get completely phased out by the wind. That may be impossible to fix so I won’t hold BMW accountable. What I don’t like about the audio: the hand signals work then want to. I’ve mastered the hand motions, but detection is disappointing. Connecting to my phone of choice is upsetting. I can be connected just fine. When I connect my back up phone or my Children’s phone they can take over effortlessly however, reconnecting my phone back becomes extremely dramatic. Sometimes, I have to travel a good 100 miles before it will re-recognize my phone. Even if I delete my phone entirely and re-add it, it still won’t connect regardless of BMW or Apple Car play. It is very frustrating. Therefore, please note that the sound system connecting via my phone and hand gestures are my greatest disappointment. Sometimes, I wonder if it’s my car or everyone else’s. The glove box I feel can be a little bigger but, the center console makes up for that. I love that this v4 engine especially when in Sport mode drives land feels like v8. It still feels good when I pull off at a light. Takes off fast, no lag. I’ve had tire issues since the very first month. One, I was told that backing out I was going to always hear that squeaking noise until the car got adjusted. 2 years later it’s still a pain to hear. It always sounds like I have bad breaks. Absolutely aweful!!! My back right tire was going down every single month. I had taken it to them and was told it’s probably just the heat. 8 months in the tire was replaced. Now it’s the back left tire. Same exact issue. I purchased the tire replacement package which was around a good 3k. But, guess what? Being silly I didn’t read the full contract. It only covers nails or major damage. Replacing 2 tires were a good 800 plus tax. No bueno BMW. My package should have covered atleast 1 tire change per tire regardless of the reason. The air conditioner pumps really great. Zero issues there. 2 years later and still getting great air flow even on the hottest days. My wheels, breaks and rotors are still in excellent condition. Wierdly enough, when the car sits the wheels appear rusted, but when I take it to the car wash it goes away. That may be normal but at first site it was a concern until I saw a car wash as any easy resolution. I have had 3 instances where the exterior mirrors (side mirrors), didn’t pop out unlocking, at start up or when the car moved. That’s no good. I was driving maybe a mile or two and realized it when I went to switch lanes. Pushing the mirrors out was a little scary at first because it’s very stiff. It almost felt like I was going to break them or push them off track. And when you push them even 1 knotch, when it’s ready to self correct it’s off track. I don’t like that all. The panoramic sunroof is awesome. I really love the ability to self start from the keys in the house and the ability to shut it down. The car starts out pretty loud but be very careful. There’s been times when it didn’t actually cut off and I’ll come out to leave again a couple hours later and the car was still running. There is no indicator or auto shut down even if after there is no movement for a couple hours. I don’t like that. But, a great bones. I was about 15 miles watching dinner on the beach while my car was at the hotel. My son had to get into the car. I was able to unlock and lock it back from that great distance using the phone app. Now, when present at the car. The keys have to be in exact range and you have to kick exactly in the middle back for the trunk to unlock. I love the 2 position access on all four doors. It allows you to unlock or lock with a touch. The inside screen is very large, but I wish it allowed you to play movies when tailgating at the ball park. I’m sure there is a way to lock the feature when driving. What a waist of this beautiful large screen and you can’t watch a movie when hanging out at the football field or beach. The trunk has additional space under the board. What a delight. I’ve been able to store clothes, shoes and back up personal items which remains. If I don’t feel like packing a suitcase everything I need is already stored in the car. I can literally hop in and be gone with atleast 5 days worth of stored clothes, shoes and accessories. The seating positions are great when done manually each time. For some reason the programming doesn’t automatically recognize my chosen selections. I’ve programmed it repetitively until I just gave up and do it each time. Does that make it inconvenient when I get in after my very tall football player child and feel like I just got slumped down when I initially sit. Yessss, it’s aweful. I should be able to push a button or have an auto setting on my key so the car can know it’s me about to drive and it auto puts my seat into the correct position. I wish the front had all of the options for connecting charger ports. There are two variations. One up front and the other in the center console. My cord gets smashed some times or if my daughter needs to charge she has to lean forward using a standard cord. So there should be one in the back also. I love the grill. I was able to change out my grill plates simply using some magnets or plastic grill pins to give the look an upgrade. That was great designing and is appreciated. The touch screen has not given me any issues at all. I’m use to BMW coming with a tool kit. This car didn’t have any tools at all. Very disappointing. Also, I personally believe someone at the dealership or when I’m route removed some of the small upgrades like the rear protective mesh for the trunk. I’m like how can that not be included? Makes zero since. You don’t recognize these things until it’s time to use them. I was able to lay the seats down and transport a 70 inch TV so spacing is pretty good. Originally the car felt like an x5 but after some time you realize it’s not and you stop living in the fantasy. The heads up display is a great addition. While it’s not really needed, because interacting with the very large screen seems to be by natural selection. Like, even though the display is there I naturally look at the screen, I still like having it. I can change music, get the miles, speed etc.

The X3 M with Competition package is the best luxury performance suv I’ve ever owned. I purchased the 2020 year and drove it for 3 years without a single issue then upgraded to the 2022 model. The performance, luxury options, sleek sporty look, and comfort are among my favorite things about this vehicle. The compliments always roll in whenever I’m out. The roar of the Twin Turbo Inline 6 engine is aggressive yet not obnoxious. It’s family friendly comfortably fitting 3 car seats on the rear seat and 2 adults in the front seat with nice cargo space. The optional roof box for additional storage is helpful. I also enjoy the ability to zip through traffic with ease when on road trips or navigating rush hour traffic. I highly recommend this suv.
