All the information on the newly released 2012 BMW X3: http://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=408177

very nice!

Hmmm, I'll need to look closer at the X3 when it hits the show room. I need a replacement for my E60 soon.

I like it and will definitely check it out when I'm in the market, which will hopefully be next spring.

Nice it has a HUD that means next 3er will have it too.

So close, if only the front headlights didn't have a flat line on the top it would have looked like a mini x5 and would have blown away the q5....

i wonder if it will be sportier than x6!?!?!

nice interior

anyone else notice the gap right above the driver side a/c vent??? thats a little odd

car is decent and way above its predecessor

Most people view the X3 is a hospitable family transportation. The interior is quite nice and reasonably easy to clean.

Looks very nice! I'll will certainly get one with M pack.

I notice its being referred to as the "2012 X3" now, but I thought it was due on the market late this year?

I just got back from the Spartanburg factory tour last Tuesday, they said the production of the new X3 will start by September/October of 2010.

Thanks for the info.

So, unless they plan on putting off actual sales until January, its gotta be called a 2011, not a 2012

I understand that the dimensions (ect and int) are slightly bigger than the current X3. Can someone tell me how close they are to the first-generation X5 (ballpark)? IMHO it looks still significantly smaller, especially the interior...no?

exteriors a bit ugly, mainly the round fog lights..
just looks a bit weird

perhaps this is the legacy of the X3. Ugly

Backseat still doesn't fold flat...

I am so excited for this X3. Cant wait to see and drive this!
