How fun! Shifting into sport mode makes this car fun. Lots of compliments. Has a surprisingly nice growl in the cabin when accelerating. Love the panoramic roof and leather interior. I got mine used....bmw owners generally maintain their cars above average so if you can find a low mileage model just out of warranty, snatch it up and you won't regret it.

You have to drive an X3.

I have a really loaded 2007 X3. It's an unbelievable machine. I buy new cars very frequently and have gotten kind of bored with them. The X3 has given me that teenage excitement of having a car again. I really enjoy driving it. Its acceleration, handling and braking are just awesome. All of the latest safety features are in it. The fit and finish are top notch. The leather interior is beautiful. The transmission can be used in regular automatic drive, sport drive and manual. Hands free communication and BMW assist are very convenient. The BMW is in a class by itself.

Not a huge fan

My first BMW; so excited to get it and compared it to all mini-SUV models. Have had it six months and trading it; hubby and I loved to drive it; hate to ride in it. 6 year old gets car sick the ride is so rough. I loved the idea of a BMW, but have found perhaps I am not such a fan of German engineering after all. I wish it would have worked out. Plenty of power, we simply cannot handle the rough ride.

I have owned BMW, Lexus, Honda, Mitsubishi, Ford, Cadillac, Pontiac- I love this car. Purchased it used 80,000 miles has 145,000 now. Replaced water pump, the 3 light transfer gear issue, O2 sensor, air conditioner recharger, tires, brakes- that’s it. First off, yes it’s expensive to repair. Bosch dishwashers are expensive to purchase and repair. You get what you pay for! Find a great mechanic with reasonable rates and you will want to keep this car forever like I do! I want an x6 but I don’t have a car payment and I love my X3- BMWs are by far my fav to own and drive but yes “bring my wallet” isn’t a joke. If you can’t afford to fix a car that handles amazingly and is pretty fast... and of course premium gas... maybe get a Honda? I loved my Lexus too. No problems with them ever but they just weren’t as fun or as fast as my BMWs have been!

Don't be a sucker for BMW

Okay, I have myself to blame. I buy a new car every two years, last one was a 2004 Acura TL--not the most expensive car I've owned, but far and away the best car in every category. I read the reviews for BMW X3 and know the car was not higly thought of in the past--but that 2007 was a NEW year with many improvements. The gas mileage is bad! 18mpg city/highway. The tranny is rough, and at low RPM there is almost zero torque and a rough go until about 25mph. The electronics are less than high tech--the radio is pathetic for a $44k vehicle--and the rear seats, despite what the catalogue said, do not fold flat, making the rear space useless for boxes, dogs, and anything else.
