Great SUV!

This is the smaller of the SUV'S but has lots of leg room for people who are sitting in the back and great cargo space.

I Love This Car

I love everything about this car except that it doesn't have the satellite already active in it. I need to get it hooked up at the dealer. Would have rather went without wheels than satellite radio!!!

Never going back

This car has such a smooth, quiet ride. There's plenty of pick-up and a ton of trunk space considering its a compact SUV. Perfect car for my husband and I as we start our family! Its safety rating is superior and for an SUV, the fuel economy is great!

Love this car!

This car is so stylish and drives great! It?s a 4WD which will be great for the winter. It?s also great with gas. I am very happy with it so far!

Hated this car from the moment I took ownership

My first expensive car and I hated it. Suspension felt cheap, technology was horrible and the interior was not comfortable at all. Charged for every extra. Also the dealership was not nice - BMW Freeport NY - salesman handled a few customers at same time and just kept us waiting and waiting and waiting.

Sporty and useful

I have owned many BMW's over the years and they never cease to put a smile on my face. The build quality, engineering, and performance are top notch. My only regret is that BMW now uses run flat tires and while I've had them on other BMW's, I still don't like their ride comfort.

Solid performer in a competetive class

Surprised and delighted by the practicality and style of this vehicle at the entry point of the BMW X line. Lively 4 cylinder turbo shines in high altitude. X-drive performance in heavy snow better than most, including other BMWs. Exceeded expectations for CUV with usable interior space and passenger head room.
