 One thing I can say is that the X3 drives like a sports car.Handling is exceptional as is its acceleration.The turbo engine and 8-speed transmission are a great marriage.Its power deliver seems limitless.Yet, the the ride is smooth and composed.It can be very relaxing when you want it to be and a canyon carver when your in the mood.I really this like this little SUV a lot - mainly because it doesn't feel like one, if you know what I mean.The navigation screen is a wide screen set up allowing for maps to be displayed beside radio stations/songs/artwork if you like it that way. The standard stereo system sound very good as well.So far, seven months and no problems.
