Bought a 2014 X3 35i with 75,000 miles on it from a Denver BMW dealer. The car was prepared very well and I checked the service record; the car had been serviced regularly. It also drove like new. Also, the water pump had been replaced at 60,000. It is just a maintenance item, every 60,000 replace it. I was very fortunate that the X3 came with the 18" wheels and the run-flats had been replaced with high quality all season radials. It rides firm but so nice. I dove a couple X3s with run-flats and I would have had to replace the tires right away - rode like crap. Previously I was driving a 2008 Lexus RX 400h and a 2001 Audi A6 2.7T 6 speed that ran perfect. We kept the Lexus but sold the Audi. We wanted a second SUV and I wanted one that handled sportier than the Lexus. We accomplished this. It took a while to adjust to the X3 but now that I have I am enjoying it so much. The N55 engine coupled with the ZF8 transmission, the BMW steering and suspension make driving pure pleasure. The 28i just did not do it for me had to be a 35i. The Lexus RX 400h is an incredibly comfortable and reliable car with great hybrid drive. 174,000 miles and no repairs besides maintenance. I probably won't be as fortunate with the BMW but I think I did buy a good one. I will drive sensibly most of time and do all the maintenance and hope all goes well. No matter, for what I paid for the X3 versus new, I can absorb some maintenance for the driving pleasure. Bought in November, 2023 for $16,000. It has a $68,000 list price in 2014.

Con - problematic, expect expensive repairs every year especially after warranty expires. Pro - eye catching design, rocket fast and absolutely a blast to drive Update- Spent additional $3000 in repair costs. All total we’ve spent over $5000 in repairs since warranty expired. Unfortunately, my wife will not consider another brand Update 12/2022 50000 mi No major repairs for now but service is due and I’m sure they will find something. Unfortunately for me wife still loves the car Update 6-12-24 No repairs in a year but I’ve noticed oil leak on garage floor. We were planning to trade up for M40i but now considering other brands Update 12/17/24. The Oil Pan began to leak leaking puddles of oil on garage floor. Needs new brakes, new tires and more. Total cost was going to be over $4000. We decided to trade in for a 2025 X3 M50. I tried to persuade wife to look at another brand but she stuck on BMW. She actually cried the day we left the POS 2015 on the lot. This one will be gone before warranty expires

I wasn't a big German car fan because of operating costs and reliability. So I did something way, way out of character for me and purchased a higher mileage (93k) 2014 BMW X3 35i M Series xdrive. I covered my bases and purchased an very good extended warranty, so I'm protected just in case. But I have had really great luck with it so far! The only thing that happened was the passenger side front inside door handle (to open it) broke. Other than that nothing has went wrong. It drives amazing and has a ton of power! Especially in sport mode it will flat move!! I'm very happy with it and I'm sure I will keep it until the warranty runs out and then trade it for a New BMW X3 M Sport! :)

Purchased our 2014 BMW X3 28i as a certified used car at our local BMW dealer. It had just come off of a 3-year lease with its previous owner. It drove and handled well. Materials and workmanship were excellent. Ride was more sporty than comfortable, but not unexpected with a BMW. But we were extremely upset with the value of our purchase. Got multiple "low tire pressure" warnings, but the dealer just said that was typical in the winter. Got multiple warnings that the battery was failing to charge; again, the dealer attributed that to cold weather and advised us to keep the car on a trickle charger overnight in our garage. When the car needed routine oil change, local dealer couldn't get me in for 8 days! And if I had needed a loaner car, I would have had to wait over two weeks. Not exactly what we had in mind for "luxury car" service! Finally, the car doesn't hold its resale value. We bought a 3-year old vehicle, thinking the previous owner had absorbed the bulk of its depreciation. 15 months later this X3 lost $14,000 more of its value. We traded it for a new model of a different brand, and never even thought for a moment about getting another BMW.
