I was really excited to get my hands on the brand new X3M Competition, if for nothing else to drive the new S58 motor. This is the first platform that features the motor for the upcoming //M models such as the G87 M2, G80 M3 and the G82 M4. I really saw it as an excuse to drive something, ANYTHING with that much talked about motor.. then I drove the X3M Comp!
If your M2 button is set to Sport Plus everything you better have a traffic defense attorney on speed dial. Incredibly quick, remarkably responsive and startling in how good it really is!
As was recently shown at the Sachenring circuit in Germany, the X3M Comp is only 0.04 slower than the M4 Competition, and faster than the Lamborghini Urus! I feel like the X3 can the be overlooked model, the 'little brother' to the bigger //M's, especially the X5M Comp.
This is no little brother, but a fire breathing performance car with room for 5 plus a back full of groceries and a bike on the roof rack! (Secure all cargo for sure.. you are going to need to do so!)
I am really impressed by this car, not just the motor, and it deserves a first AND second look.
Make sure to check it out if you get a chance!
