Beware-Great drive/poor value

Be sure you have lots of money to spend on upkeep- once the warranty is over it will cost you. Dealer costs are very high and parts are astronomical. I love the way the X3 drives but if I were to do it over I wouldn't. My dealer wanted $500 to update my navigation map! Ugh!!In fact I just traded the vehicle for another non- BMW.

The X3 is a pleasure to drive, very responsive yet sturdy and quiet. I love the iDrive controller and the Heads Up display. Firm yet comfortable seats.

Very impressed with this 3.5 x3 after one month, the heads up display along with steering wheel voice command and what is now a very easy to use i drive system make it very simple to drive the vehicle, change radio, adjust navigation etc without removing your eyes from the road. Suspension and engine are amazing, if you can avoid the hilarity of flooring it, the vehicle gets reasonably impressive fuel mileage. Build quality is top notch and I like the fact that the styling is very conservative. With all the fun stuff, doubtful that anything short of the new Porsche can match it for speed agility and functionality.

Great if you have money for repairs

Very expensive to repair. Check engine light remained on 2x. Once for faulty fuel sensor and 2nd for software problem. Back hatch would not open - no manual way to do so and cost to repair was $2,000 and took full week to correct. Run flats are a joke. Good for about 30,000 miles and cost almost $400 per tire. BMW Connected Drive can be frustrating as it does not always connect. Find the voice activation poor. Other than that the handling and performance lives up to its reputation.

We have a double kayak and we love the height and ease of loading and unloading. Previous 2002 X5 was taller, but the same length. We also tow our utility trailer and trailerable sail boat with it and launching sail boat is so easy even on steep ramps. We couldn't be happier.
