A sporty fun SUV after driving a staid sedan!

Love my certified pre-owned X1!! I traded to this from a series 5 sedan because of difficulties getting out of the car due to arthritic knees. The X1 sits higher, and getting out is now very easy. The turbo engine gives me the confidence to get onto the freeway easily. It took some getting used to the engine resting at a complete stop like in hybrid cars, but it starts up immediately when I release the brake. The gearshift was also new to me--press the button on the left side with the thumb, then push away from me to go to R, and pull toward me to go to D. But It was a minor adjustment, and the tradeoff is getting to drive an excellent machine that now even feels like a sporty "teenaged" fun car instead of a staid sedan.

I prefer and bought the x3!

I do like it, but I think the exterior and interior need an upgrade. I ended up getting the x3, but even still I think it just needs a little modern tweak to the looks.

Nice entry level new BMW.

I have loved driving this car. It is zippy. I need a bigger car to meet family needs. Get leather seats.

Handles well on the road and around town.

I like the luxury styling but smaller size from regular SUVs. It's definitely a contender for my next vehicle purchase.

Don't sleep on the X1!!!

Originally I was going to get a 328i xdrive M Sport. I am SO happy I changed my mind to an X1 M Sport. Now, I'm sure I would have been very happy with the 328, but not as happy as I am with the X1. It's just more fun in every way, and more conducive to my active lifestyle. I LOVE that it's not quite a car, not quite an SUV. There is something really refreshing about that. It's also so quick in such a safe, solid way. Every time I get in it I feel like I am on a mini vacation. I genuinely feel blessed to call this thing mine.
