excellent car, spacious, and fun to drive

this car has it all, styling, handling, power, and fun to drive. BMW really knows how to deliver the driving experience and luxury all in one understated, non-ostentatious package. Be careful with the warranty expiration. My annual shop costs went from almost nothing to 2k, to 4k within a few short years.

Great car!

Handles nice, drives smooth and looks great! Although this was a used vehicle, it looks brand new inside and out. I was extremely pleased with the condition, low miles and good price.

An Absolute DISASTER.

We bought this car used in June 2016. In the last year, we?ve had it in the shop for about 4 months total time. We have spent THOUSANDS on frivolous repairs, due to the horrid engine and shoddy craftsmanship (My trunk has been unusable for the last 8 months). We are now facing having to replace the engine. BMW has turned a blind eye to a known problem, and they are selling junk. It?s a beautiful car, but looks aren?t everything. BMW could have made a lifelong customer out of me, but instead I will NEVER buy another BMW, and I shout it from the rooftops to everyone I meet to avoid BMW. I have saved at least 3 people from having a similar fate. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Rated a 10.0 by US News & World Report!

This BMW X3 met all of my expectations for a small SUV. It is fun to drive and gas mileage is good. I felt safe driving my grandchildren in this car.

Awesome sports performance for an SUV

I purchased my X3 35i used and had it for over 3 years now. I am very pleased on how it has performed. Great Handling great acceleration and very good on gas for the size. I totally agree on the BMW advertising - it really Drives like the Ultimate Driving Machine. it's Powerful, comfortable to drive, offers great handling and acceleration. But you need sets of winter tires as the all season run on flat tires doesn?t grip on the snow.

Disappointing test drive

I had very high expectations for driving a BMW for the first time after test driving a few Audi?s over a one week period only to be disappointed. Comparing the two, the Audi was head and shoulders above the BMW in nearly every way from driving dynamics, interior style, exterior style. The only edge I would give to the BMW would be the Navigation system was more intuitive.

Perfect Vehicle For Teen

I was thrilled to be able to get my granddaughter a BMW! I have owned 2 BMWs (I still have one). They are safe, reliable, look great and are the best driving vehicles.
