This is probably the worst X3M review I’ve read so far. Completely off. Numb handling? Dull powertrain? S58 is heavily based on B58? 0-62 in 4.1 sec? outright stopping power feels a little undernourished? Transmission lacks urgency in shifts? That’s just lazy and wrong. They have probably spent 30 minutes with this car.

For comparison, check out these two reviews:
