I'm ticked off that the X4 does NOT have interior recessed handrails, for when you're a passenger and you want to hold on in a corner or just a nice place to hold hand while touring.
This is something BMW hast to add to the X4, it will not impede and head room whatsoever. |

Awesome this post/thread made the front page!
I regret not making the video a bit longer and filming the engine bay. In defense of the X3M, this color combo really doesn't help. I think one of the 2-tone interior options would go a long way. Still for a "Competition" model - it is underwhelming for what it is.

My only complaint is the quad exhaust is barely noticeable!!!! In every picture and video, can barely make it out that it's quads!

I'd agree...but am still tempted I have 3 of the 4 options packs on my 40D and its financed on £47k after getting a nice Pre-Reg discount. Will be sometime before these are realistic.

Struggling to see why anyone would buy the X3M over the X3 M40i at almost $30k more. If it was a lot quicker or looked drastically different maybe I could justify the price, but the X3 M40i seems like the better choice in every scenario.

Could have used better simpler wheels. I agree with the OP, it doesn't look much different from the M340. Fenders should be similar to X5M, little more enhanced.

Anyone can knock down any car over the wheels because Wheels are personal preference. If you don't like them sell them and go aftermarket. Those wheels are built for strength to meet TUV standards over anything else. |

I agree it doesn't have haunches or flared bodywork or really much more in the way of being aggressive. The F82 M4 also underwhelmed compared to the F80 M3. |

I hope everyone shares the emotions of this thread's posters. If this thing doesn't sell, lease deals will be killer!
Hopefully we have an M3CS situation here!!!

I am confused, are you referring to F30 (non M) to F80 M3. Just park both side by side and see them from the rear, somebody has to be blind to not be able to tell the difference, on how (way)more muscular the M3 is. Now do the same on X3 and X3M, ehmmm....someone says you need magnifying glass to tell the difference. This is what everyone is talking about, the car is beautiful but not enough distinction from non(real) M X3. Again, it could be blessing in disguise, maybe discount from the get go on X3M/X4M |

There are significant differences between the M40i and X3 M. Engine, Brakes, Suspension and weighty structural reinforcements. Looking from the back comparing a M40i to a X3 M you'd notice the different rear spoiler, bumper, exhaust and maybe the M mirrors. |

In this case I was looking into the future and comparing M340 vs new M3 or existing M550 and existing F90. This "not enough M" is getting old. All Porsches are identical one might say so what? That's called brand. |

Just IMHO, and I guess I have 10 other people as of today in the poll above.
And I assume people who disagree have their names on the list for allocation at the dealers |

So yes, $83,400 for a loaded X3M Comp, so maybe not as big of a spread, but $80k still seems REALLY high to me for a smaller SUV with a claimed 0-60 of ~4.0. We all know it will probably be faster than that, but just hard to justify in my head still. Will wait for reviews.
