Redesign is a nice and needed touch

I bought the 2018 clone with convenience and premium packages. Coming from a Kia Sorento v6 I was pleasantly surprised at the pick up from the 4cyl turbo and it?s pretty fuel saavy considering it runs on premium. The ride is like the 3 series because it shares the same chassis and design. Gets pricey quick with options but after 6 weeks of test driving others this one wins. The media system takes some Learning and I?m just at a month of ownership so I?m still learning that it?s a very smart car and has lots of Buttons I have no clue what they do. BMW support was and has been great and the BMW genius is a very nice thing to have!

One beautiful ride (:

The car met all my desires from the heated steering wheel all the way to the foot to open hatch. The best feature by far is the voice command system if understands you so much better than any other car I?ve driven!

Good Looking Car, Great Road Ride

This cat meets all my needs, has great Room in the front and decent room in the back seat. The interior is sleek and very nice looking. It is a little confusing to understand but all in good time. I have yet to find ANY major drawbacks to this vehicle. I highly recommend it.

Miss the in-line six

I had a 2011 X-3 with a naturally aspirated in-line 6 cylinder and I loved it. Tested the 2018 with the turbo 4 and I?m sorry it?s just not the same. Sure it?s 0-60 time is comparable and it?s a little more efficient but it lacks the sophistication of the old in-line 6. The 4 banger?s sound, turbo lag and annoying start stop system were just turn offs for me. And yes you can bypass the annoying stop start if you hit the annoying bypass button every time you start the engine.
