Did you get X3 for you (man) or for your wife?

bellorusha · 08-26-2011, 09:06 AM

I saw couple of X3 on the street and they do look tiny, and I always see posts here starts with "I got the new X3 for my wife" so here is the poll.

Harplayr · 08-26-2011, 09:12 AM

I am the primary driver of my X3.
In fact my wife hasn’t even driven it once yet.

warmtoes · 08-26-2011, 09:15 AM

I'm the same as Harplayr, it's for me and my wife hasn't driven it yet although she will in the future.

tagz · 08-26-2011, 09:49 AM

Same here.. my wife hasn't driven it!

washy · 08-26-2011, 10:05 AM

Bought ours for my wife as I thought she needed something more sturdy having written off my 135i convertible...gave up my order for a 1M coupe so she could have it too.

Radioactive · 08-26-2011, 10:36 AM

Man car. Although the wife and daughter have driven it.

sfax · 08-26-2011, 10:58 AM

I got mine because I got a wife and that led to children and more stuff to transport!

pokerface · 08-26-2011, 11:50 AM

man. LOL

Your poll is flawed!!!

You should include both as an option.

Married with 3 kids and a 1 car family.She wanted an X5M...I thought it was too big. I really wanted a M3 e90 but she felt it was a bit too small as the kids grew. Then came the X3 35i...PERFECT! UNTIL we hear about a possible X3M...

We were annoyed but will most likely order one if the test drive passes our approval...even if we take a bath on the 35i.

This Poll desperately needs a "PC" makeover

It should read:

I purchased the X3 for

 Myself
 My partner
 My garage

I'm a:

 Female
 Male
 Other
 Not sure

My partner is:

 Male
 Female
 Other
 Imaginary
 Canine
 Feline
 Inanimate
 None of your *#/%in business
 It’s actually the X3 (we have an intimate relationship)
 Leaving me for someone who drives a Ferrari 458

I bought it for my wife, and drove it home from the dealer - and that's it so far.

bellorusha · 08-26-2011, 12:17 PM

you guys are funny..

tuco44 · 08-26-2011, 12:27 PM

Got it for me (man) and wife has driven it once on hiway (she liked it a lot).

Le Chef · 08-26-2011, 01:42 PM

This is a funny post and I agree that the flaws in the poll would mean that the X3 is probably the Old Spice guy's car of choice. "It's a Man's car, man!"

But the heated seats satisfy my feminine side.

I ordered an X3 for my wife. I'd get one myself if I could get one with a manual transmission.

This thread reminds me of the thread asking whether the X3 is man's car or women's car
