Thanks for sharing, Mani59 . As this LCI has the usual front and rear camo, wonder what was testing in full camo in Ibiza 's thread just a month ago? https://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1761348

Hopefully they fix or at least address the laundry list of nitpicking items that plague this platform. It's so close to being great right out of the box

The outside looks fine. BMW should offer full leather on this platform b/c the sensatacky dashboard and door-tops do not make this car feel special at all. Sit in an X3M and go..."Hmmm....doesn't feel $80k to me..."

It's still a nice cabin, but they really need to open up the Individual paint and interior options for the F97 program

always interesting to see what gets changed or updated in LCI process. I know a lot I see on here state the ride quality.
PS the red brakes look hot

Shockingly enough the X3M and X4M front and rear already looks out of date compared to the new stuff that's coming out. Hopefully BMW doesn't botch this facelift. And if it's not functional it has NO need to be there!
I would like to see BMW execute a proper facelift on the new M3 and M4 ASAP! |

To add to the discussion, having a beater is annoying;I was doing this with a tucson and a RS3. Turns out I was driving the rs3 alone all the time and taking the tucson on family drives and camping.
Now with the x3m, I go on track with it, I go camping with the family with it, I tow the boat with it, I go drive the b road with family with it. I was able to do a road trip + camping + have fun on the b road all at the same time vs having my rs3 stay at home. |

Depending on the stage of life you're in family wise and financially wise, having a specific car for specific reasons make sense. Can you do a beater in the winter and splurge in the summer on the nice M3, sure, but that's no fun. I think the SUV sized for your needs can function perfectly for all year round driving. However, for true track days or B-road driving the SUV isn't going to cut it even if it's an X3M. I just think there's something to be said about being in a true sports car that has you sitting a foot or so from the road and slinging it around corners. You can't replicate the experience you get from wringing out an M3, M4, or better yet Porsche. I thought about trading in my X3 M40i for an X3M, but then thought of the above and decided to use money allocated for that upgrade to start my Porsche GT4 fund for next year. Remember it's all owner dependent so to each their own. Just get out there and drive. |

Hopeful hopefully BMW will address and add what they have recently deleted, which has completely pissed me off 😡 which is the missing OEM hidden roof rack bolts/brackets.
I've never like the look of roof rails unless it's on a wagon, it's so much cleaner looking without them. And the built-in roof frame brackets are stronger and more stable when you have Thule rack mounted. BMW has completely deleted 😤 this necessary functional aspect from the X3 & X4 when you "delete" the roof rails. BMW needs to add and fix this functionality issue!

Loving those red brakes! I had mine powdercoated red. It's even nicer now from the factory.
