My colleague tried to convince me to get an X5 instead (like him) because the X3 was a "woman's car." So I started paying attention to X5 drivers. Turns out they are mostly Moms. Not so sure about X3 drivers, as I don't see so many. But my new car will be fast as shit with black leather and sport seats, so my ego will be a-ok.

Also, I've lived in NYC and definitely wouldn't want a car that was any bigger than I absolutely needed. Still, I agree with others that you should buy what you like or you'll regret it.
