I have had two other BMWs in the past and loved them. This is my first foray into BMWs SUV world. I have to say that I love this vehicle just as much if not more than my others. It is a medium size SUV but is engineered inside to provide maximum storage and comfort. With the upgrade to the 6 cylinder (which is the engine I am use to having), the fun to drive factor and performance is definitely still there. My family had to run from hurricane Irma and this was our vehicle of choice to do so because we could count on its reliability, mpg, and roominess for us to take our two dogs and other essentials. Update: Still loving this vehicle and have had no problems with it. Update: Have had this vehicle for 3 years now with no problems. I still enjoy driving it and being able to haul around whatever I need to in it. I still love it. Update: I have now had my X3 for 5 years and it is still a great vehicle. I have had to get a new tires, a battery and do a brake fluid change out but other than that and the normal oil and filter changes, everything is in good shape. I recently took it on a 1,500 mile road trip and it did great. I STILL love it and am glad I bought it! Update: I have now had my X3 for over 6 years and have used it to run from yet another storm, Ian. The only issue I have had since my last update is the transfer case. My BMW dealer wanted to replace it for $7,900 to get a new one or a couple of thousand less for a refurbished one. I went to my german car specialists not affiliated with a dealer, and they serviced the transfer case, using a Porsche produced transfer case fluid and my problem has been fixed for over 2,000 miles now for just under $800. Overall, being vigilant on the service costs, I am still happy with my X3 and am now at around 32,000 on the vehicle. Just a quick and most likely my last update for my X3. I have now had it for 7 years and am still very happy with it. For its most recent service done last month, it only required a brake fluid flush in addition to the normal oil change and overall check. However, it is now about to go to a family member as I have ordered a new vehicle. Update: I no longer have this vehicle.

Perfect size - not to big or small. Love all the technology - satellite orientation including view for parking. Love the BMW ap for ease in destination info from my calendar. Love the “heads up” info in the drivers view on the front window. Very comfortable seating w/ plenty of room in the back seat. Includes CarPlay for integration with my iPhone! Best of all our experience with purchasing the vehicle at BMW was exceptional - no “car salesmen” mentality or pressure. Appreciated the visit with their BMW ‘Genius” to go over all the technology and bells/whistles. He answered all our questions and went over everything in approachable manner. Driving the X3 is a great experience.

I own a 2004 x5 v8 which I passed on to my son, Pretty good performance, and utility, and durability. I started shopping 6 months ago for a new vehicle. and I drove everything before returning to BMW ( I had a loaner x3 w/ 2.8 engine , and felt it was "pokey") So this time, I tried a 2017 x3 3.5 xdrive WITH M Sport package- I am a big fan of the seat cushion extension- and WOW. This machine really moves. I feel like the Little Old Lady From Pasadena- except I am 70, & living in Scottsdale. I can't say enough good things about this vehicle. Perfect for me at 6'3" , and I can haul lumber, boxes, whatever. The styling is great too. Worth the $$. Tony.

I love this vehicle! I have the x3 v6 msport. Purchased in July last year and have about 6k miles. It's so quick, it hugs the road, corners extremely well, and is so fun to drive. The interior is comfortable and the technology was very easy to figure out. I have a 4 year 50k warranty bumper to bumper. The maintenance program went to 3 yr 36k for the 2017 model year, but ok with me. I test drove so many vehicles before deciding and couldn't be happier with my choice.
