@@thedaybreak6576 it’s been amazing. I still long for the full M. It unfortunately was rear ended just yesterday. But not too bad. Waiting to get it back.
I have one and I will say, I don’t have any buyers remorse. Once you Officially make it an M Car, you’ll lose MPG’s. My M40i get about 30 mpg’s and it’s a SLEEPER!
got mine 2 weeks ago (2019) X4M40i , same beast , was with X3M35i before and it's totally different !! cannot explain the feeling , it's not a 25% more power/torque , I can feel +40% better than my old X3
Wonderful review , I was about to trade in my 2019 Miata RF for the GR Supra but some things came up 🤰🏽. Found one of these with really low milage and will hope to pick up this Friday !! This review solidified my purchase thanks !
LOL nice your in Edmonton too! Just on observation that Phytonic Blue looks purple in some lighting and angles. Do you see this too? Blue and purple confuse me, particularly dark blues.
This isn’t a full M car. It’s an m40i which is apart of the M performance line ie m240i, m550i, m760i and the upcoming m340i. BMW has announced we will be getting an X3 M and X4 M.
Ryan the Boston Detailer That is incorrect, the M340i was just unveiled along with the new 330i in the G20 chassis. What you are referring is a 340i which is just the F30 335i with the B58 engine, not an m performance car.
I guess its a last "F series" style look in 2019. Next "X" division will be like "G series " PS: i love that back tail lights. Remind me our favorite BMW look
14:15 you almost said “sport plus mode” lol then had to think about it lol i believe it should have it after you press the “sport” mode button the second time
Wow, a really nice car, I'm actually beginning to really like the x3 over the x5 (especially in looks), my main pet peeve is that in such a beautiful interior the rear seat sun shades are freaking terrible, I don't know why it drives me a bit nuts :) Kinda once you seen it, you can't unsee it... Anyway, great review dude, lots of detail!
""Priced at" and "worth" are two different things. If I were to buy the X3 then the front wheel drive one with the smaller engine (sDrive30i) is actually a good deal at around 40K.
There’s nothing in this that makes me want to have a $2000 car note for the next 36 months.... picked my 2011 x3 up for $13k.... but in 3 years I might take a look
Nice gloss over. Even now, SUV asks if you want to attach to its wifi which isn't available on X3s. Gesture control comes on even if you're just reaching to turn AC on, which btw is located inconveniently, far right and is a small button...If you want your drink in the cup holder, gesture control comes on and so on and so on. I turned it off. BMW doesn't know why air comes out warmer on the passenger's side than driver's. Beats the hot air it was blowing before the recall for a couple of recent software updates, which did not mention the ventilation...Ventilated seats are loud and minimally effective. BMW comes standard with run flats- be prepared for additional cost for M&S all seasons to swap out. Back seat's still a bumpy ride, regardless of tire type. No 2019 BMW rubber cargo mat yet. Lane departure control tries to jerk you onto freeway on-ramps, so keep a tight grip...same issue on an M4 I test drove. Odd inconsistency in programming, because if you don't signal a lane change, it seems to track the line to the left. Cargo cover is a cheap, thin flimsy thing. You're paying for the engine and brand...For the price, the interior should be more like the X5. $80K X3 looks cheap inside, especially the back seat, mesh storage, lack of console storage...M40i is a fun, zippy suv to drive though. Six footers fit fine in this compact, but obviously aren't going to be stretching out their legs-need an X7 for that. The price is high because upgrades are packaged. Want a normal feature you'd expect, then you have to pay another grand or two and get stuck with lame add ons.
@ExocticCarPlayPlace Love the videos. Curious do you have this knocking sound in your steering wheel? While I love this car I have had a few issues from steering wheel vibrations, rear axle replacement, leather seat replacement due to leather defect, and now this steering wheel knock. Might have to turn volume up to hear knocking. th-cam.com/video/NglMH2VBAXo/w-d-xo.html
super nice video. they finally brought the M steering wheel. Is there a HUD on this package? the new Josef Kaban grill is very controversial on the G20 (nicknamed buttox lips). for whatever reason, it is more subdued on this car but still, not easy to film wrap the M shaped front lip. The Meister kink is preserved (thank God!) as the G20 Audi Skoda look (Josef Kaban at VAG) is downright ugly as are the too obvious asymmetrically placed door handles. But not on this car, it kept key features that are controversial even on thr X5. question, how do the 21" wheels handle Canadian potholes? because i think people should be mindful of this as well as 21" tyre cost. I would go as far as customizing a separate 20" set if it saves truing headaches. Brakes- i love these but soccer moms will ruin them, An ill bedded M 4 piston set goes bad as quickly as one winter and it is 1500$. A well bedded one and I got 100,000-160,000 kms per brake set and with occasional track!! minor point but the mike sound generated a small echo.
That is a ridculous title! First, I own a BMW and fix my BMW to keep it running. X3 M40i is not worth $80,000, that is why there is x5 and x6!!!! Period! Also, turbo 4cy engine is a recent new technology which is a compromise between power and fuel milegae which comes up short verses V6 it is replacing. Look up the research on recent turbo 4cy vs V6. I did the study and research because I am about to buy a small suv.
Only bmw stupid designed on back seats, special on x5, they must be smoothly moved forward and backward for more room. They must think about it in future though. People like anything peace of mind when they're tall to be asked to seat in back seats.

Picked up a 2021 M40i this Saturday. It's so freaking amazing. I think it's THE perfect vehicle!!
Congrats, how’s it treating you so far?

Traded my boring, underpowered RDX for my 19 X3 M40i and love it!!!
I just got my X3 M on Friday in Carbon Black. I love it 🥰 worth every penny.
Really amazing SUV’s that drive as well as a car
Wonderful review , I was about to trade in my 2019 Miata RF for the GR Supra but some things came up 🤰🏽. Found one of these with really low milage and will hope to pick up this Friday !! This review solidified my purchase thanks !
Have an identical spec one, had it for 8 months so far, love it so much! Perfect daily 🔥
They are very nice SUV's
Do you still have it? How’s it treated it you? Reliable?
Just picked this one up. 16% discount
*OH NO YOU DIDN'T suggest the X3 M40i as a SOCCER-MOM child-mover?!* You seem to have missed the point of this vehicle completely, lol.
Ok I’m so offended
All cars today look like soccer mom cars... I mean suvs.
Did the seat remain comfortable?
Several reviews of the next level x3 m and m completion panned the seats as too firm
Good review. Another important feature that s changing with driving modes (not mentioned in the video) is the suspension (more or less stiff).
LOL nice your in Edmonton too! Just on observation that Phytonic Blue looks purple in some lighting and angles. Do you see this too? Blue and purple confuse me, particularly dark blues.
A very Doug Demuro Title
Thats quite the coincidence. Thanks for watching.
Coincidence 🤔
great review showing every detail about the suv
Thanks
My wife just bought a 2020 BMW m40i. Acceleration is very impressive for that heavy of a car. The engine braking is a little crazy. Handling is good.
Yes, and the overall machine is wonderful/ Lots of tech and performance.
Dang my 2020 comes with park assist. Parks itself. Crazy
Just got mine. Love the pops. People turn around to look at her!!!!! :)
Nice
Why is he wearing a life preserver?
Nice...lol
You should see my 5 ft nothing buddy with a 2xl can goose vest... makes this guy look normal
Ready for the next biblical flood
I love to drive my BMW X3 M40i!
Absolutely a great driver
Haha I see you had the shade 45 channel on. Me too sometimes 😆
Right?!
Great review by the way. Enjoyed watching this.
I have it with the Ultimate package, you have missed a lot of the most amazing features like gesture control :)
Indeed. I have both the premium and executive packages (gesture control, HUD, 360° view, etc.). Amazing, amazing vehicle. True BMW spirit.
This isn’t a full M car. It’s an m40i which is apart of the M performance line ie m240i, m550i, m760i and the upcoming m340i. BMW has announced we will be getting an X3 M and X4 M.
True, closest thing to an M car at this time.
M340 has been out for a couple years.
Ryan the Boston Detailer That is incorrect, the M340i was just unveiled along with the new 330i in the G20 chassis. What you are referring is a 340i which is just the F30 335i with the B58 engine, not an m performance car.

awesome review
Thanks
Great review mark on this gorgeous Bmw !! Really stunning suv ❤️
Thanks for the positive comment. Cheers.
Excellent review
Thanks a bunch for the comment and watching. Have a great one.
Damn! ...I'm checking out the 'merge',....that things really Takes OFF!
She is a rocket
What about reliability ?
Love my 3x M40i ❤
Cheers
the right particular title for the particular video is "why is this particular car worth particular price"
You bet
Is it reliable cause I want to buy one?
So far the B58 seems to be quite dependable.
I paid WAY WAY less! This is so misleading. 80k - wrong!
That is the correct number in Canadian dollars which is where I am from.
Loaded about $66k in the states
that's before tax..fully loaded m40i is enough for you buy a regular 2018 x5 ..
@@dzekochen1202 fully loaded M40i is a better bargain than a sparsely loaded X5
Blame Canada
Nice Video!
Thanks for watching
14:15 you almost said “sport plus mode” lol then had to think about it lol i believe it should have it after you press the “sport” mode button the second time
Nice. Thanks for watching. I really enjoyed this machine. Really impressive altogether.
Excellent review I just received mine 2 weeks ago.
Thanks Clint. Accurate so far ?
Feel sorry for you

Thanks a lot for watching. Great comments as well. Cheers.
You should do more car reviews
More to come.
It's even faster than most cars on roads, performs better than amg on road and it's more sportier
True for sure.
I think soccer moms would be more inclined toward an X-5 because it's roomy and more comfortable. Good review.
Thanks Gregory, that could very well be. Cheers.
Of Course
Great SUV. Do you own one ?
really are nice cars nice but i feel like x3 little too small and x5 lil too big
That’s fair
I thought you hate BMW brand , per your other reviews ..... mostly about its reliability...
""Priced at" and "worth" are two different things. If I were to buy the X3 then the front wheel drive one with the smaller engine (sDrive30i) is actually a good deal at around 40K.
The X3 has a RWD based AWD drivetrain so even if you opted for the non-AWD version it would be rwd, not fwd....
There’s nothing in this that makes me want to have a $2000 car note for the next 36 months.... picked my 2011 x3 up for $13k.... but in 3 years I might take a look
No get a CPO for 55k. Lol
Got an X3 2012 for $12k in 2019 inline 6
Can this machine be able to perform well in off road like mud areas?
I would say only light muddy conditions, without a locking differential and tall tires with performance treads, it wont go far in the mud as stock.
Thank you
You are very welcome.
This looks like the older interior compared to other 2019 models.
this is a 2019
So the 2019 X3 M40i looks exactly like the 2020 X3 xDrive30i...😃😉🤔. Debating whether to keep or turn it back in for something newer...
M40i has wider stance and body
Of course
Of course...
Doesn’t break the bank? Lol it would to many people
U need make up ur mind with this bmw. Are they good or bad.
I like the. Overall and would buy one
Little advice, try to use word "offcourse" less. Nothing is offcourse, you need to pay for that :)
Of course!
Thanks really enjoyed looking at your face
Wow real tailpipe. Hey Audi learn from BMW. 🤔
Sweet ride
LMAO! I paid $49K for my fully loaded 2019 X3 M40i 😎
Are you in the US? Canadians get ripped on everything from electronics to cell phones to cars.
