As a huge fan of BMWs and somebody who currently owns 3 BMW's, I hate the X3. It's under powered, and the transmission can be cluncky at the worst possible times. (as you wait for it to find the right gear while your hanging out in the left lane trying to pass, with all the horsepower of a lawnmower). On top of all this, my bigger 2006 V8 convertible gets better gas mileage. WTF? The seats are rock hard and everything (I mean EVERYTHING) is a cheap plastic. I have so many squeaks and rattles, it's kinda amazing. Seats squeak, the panoramic sunroof squeaks and the rear hatch makes a noise. Then, on top of all this, you have to do everything TWICE. Open the car? Pull the leaver twice. Turn off the car, twice (one to shut off engine, second to shut off power). Adjust the temp? Well, for that you got 3 manual adjustments. Sure, you can use the "auto" feature, but then you have manual fan speed you have to adjust and the manual temp adjustment for the center vents????? What a huge disappointment, I will never buy a newer BMW again. Stick to BMW pre 2008 and you'll be just find. Avoid these never models, they aren't worth it. Seriously, what was i thinking buying this thing?

2012 X3 M Fully Loaded WOW WOW WOW!

We are having an addition to the family so it was time to upgrade from the Mini Cooper. Baby number 3 is on the way. I have always wanted the X5 the one that seats 7. When it came out in 2007 I waited and waited so that I could buy a fully loaded used one. The one I wanted brand new was 90,000.00 but I was 22 and there was just no way at that age. Im 28 now, and baby number 3 on the way I went to my usual BMW dealership and saw the fully loaded X3 M. I thought. What the heck Ill just drive it and pretend I can have it. Its been a month and a half and I LOVE IT. I cant take corners in it like the mini but it will do. (I kept the mini anyway) Its luxury.

Great Choice

I'll preface my review in that this is my 3rd BMW. Each time I've gone to find a car, I have done an exhaustive analysis with spreadsheets multiple test drives and comparison figures recorded. Let's face it, cars aren't cheap and we should be happy with our choice after the deal is done and we drive off the lot. On each search, while the BMW wasn't the winner for all of the categories it had the best combination of features/performance and price that I was looking for. My advise, order one, and you can still work your dealers over and you can get a much better price -- even as good as one already built. Also work them on financing and get the deal you want you'll enjoy the final x3.

Love the car but...

This is our first 2012 BMW X3 35i M Sports Package. My husband and I love the car but it drifts right. Even on a flat road the car will veer to the right if you let go of the steering wheel. The dealership had it for a week and came back and said that this was normal for the X3's. Does anyone else's X3 drift to the right? It's very noticeable at high speeds but you can still notice it at lower speeds.

It can't get any better than this.

This is my 7th BMW and I couldn't be happier. Looks stunning. Drives like a sports car. Comfortable sports seats that hugs you. It's been 300 miles and I'm still getting use to the fun. I had the older X3 and this is night and day. The old x3 drived like a truck and was not comfortable at all. The 2012 model is extremely smooth with its 7 gears.

the most fun to drive suv

Production problems have bedeviled my 2012 X3. Continual drive train error messages/check engine light faults. I have driven a total of maybe 20 miles. It has sat in my dealers service area for 17 days out of the 18 I have owned it. My 5th BMW and quite possibly my last. I traded in a Q5 for this; what a mistake.
