I really want one of these but I think I'll hold on to the m40i til the x6m comes out. I need a v8 in my life haha

This will shit all over the X3 M40i...tuned or not. BMW likes to play games with 0-60 figures and HP. This looks to have a good chance optioned properly to be a sub 3.5s SAV. Can't disagree on the weight...4,600 pounds is crazy but look at what the current X5M / X6M can do with it's whale ass lol. I do wish I could fit that V8 where I park.
The price! I called it within a few bucks but a base X3M and a fully loaded X3 M40i are the same price. |
I hope you're right! But I'm afraid those numbers are reserved for the x6m/x5m though I was still expecting to see 3.8 at the least for non comp. Really don't understand why bmw would play with numbers like that but I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Anyway from the little rev I heard from the review it sounds like an s55 to me :/ in that regard I'll take my b58 any day. Sound is a big thing for me.
Very nice to see the price as well!
