Got stuck twice, once in my driveway (30 degree angle) starting from inside my garage and once on a completely flat surface. Same days, same places my 535i xDrive drove through like it was nothing. On the X3 didn't matter whether DSC/DTS was on or off. It was going nowhere in 5 inches of snow. Required being towed from the flat snow packed surface and shoveling my drive, when I was in a hurry to get it out. Dealership ran diagnostics and says nothing is wrong with the xDrive. One tech told me it was because of the Sport Package, another said it wasn't.

Personally I wouldn't get another X3. Will probably replace it with a 550 or whatever they are going to call it when it comes out with xDrive and 535's motor.
