Where do you live?
I don't own a X3M or X4M, but the vehicle interests me so I've been browsing here since it was released. I've noticed that there seems to be an unusually high percentage of owners from the U.K. (England, Scotland, Wales) than in other BMW M forums, like the F80/F82/F83 M2/M3, the F87 M2, or the older ZPost forum. It seems to be hugely popular there, and it's not a market where I thought it would be so popular.
(Note: Like most Americans, I'm woefully ignorant of geographical/political details/boundaries, so I apologise if I've lumped anybody together incorrectly. I can edit the poll for corrections.) If you don't mind, please indulge me and take the poll above.

I am local in San Diego, but I do agree there are a ton of UK members on this site for the X3/4 M

Have you, or do you plan to take X3M to an autocross? Are you a member of the San Diego Chapter of the BMW CCA?

I much prefer the nice backroads that we have in San Diego County and going through the mountains at a nice pace. I am a CCA member and plan to take the X3M on the cruise set for 2/23. Will most likely have a full load with my wife and twin babies, which is why we got the x3m over what we would normally want (m3/4). One thing that's pretty funny is the roads by me are super crappy and my wife's been driving the car in sport plus suspension around town and likes it! The suv is stiff! What part of San Diego are you in?

Long Island New York. I know there’s a few from the Long Island and NYC area on here. Just haven’t seen their cars in real life. I still feel like I’m the only one driving around in one in these parts. Lol

Mine has been off the road for 2 weeks due to PPF/Ceramic and giving another week in the garage to cure. I’m so tempted to take it out in the snow tomorrow to test my new winter wheels but she’s so clean! What to do???? |

Don't worry they're born offended.

The Pirelli Scorpion Winters did well (though I wasn’t pushing it). I did manage to kick on the anti-lock brakes when hard braking in a parking lot with only about an inch of slush. Perhaps I was expecting too much, but I figured with a dedicated winter tire it would perform as if it was dry? Oh and my car is a salty mess now. I was hoping hosing off with the ceramic coating would do it but looks like I still have to wash. |
