I got the car and its just honestly the one car for everything, have the power for when you wanna have some fun and the space for when you need to move stuff. I dont understand why people dont understand that and try to make fun of it. Like a commment below tried saying you will never use the power, that goes for like almost all performance cars on the roads. How many people actually go to tracks or all that? Might as well say they shouldnt sell performance cars at all.
I simply could not choose this new model over my recently purchased 24 M40i. It has more power and torque, but it is heavier. 0 - 60 time is the same according to BMW. Add to that the boring, bland new exterior and an interior full of cost cutting and a miriad of feature losses...the 24 is a higher quality, classier place to be. The minor tech advances simply aren't worth the new price tag. Constantly glad I just chose the 24. A better choice instead of the M or the 25 X50.
Yes Tim. Nicely put and presented. Few gripes. Shame the panoramic roof doesn’t open whatsoever. Would have been a nicer design if it was split to tilt and retract. Especially on sunny days. Headlight design looks less sexy than the modern day angel eyes twin lenses. Front grills look too XXL and the rear end rather boxy looking. But overall very sweet.

Methinks *M* is as much about status than anything else. It's why so many M owners are upset about M Performance cars.
So, no, X3M imo is about status
😄 your words! Gotta say I agree a tad!
Yeah M SUV's are just a status symbol 🤣. To let it be known that you spent more money. They pretty much rarely ever use all that power.
100% agree with the power thing! 😄
