Love that BMW is sticking to round exhausts on their M cars without foolish fake outlets like their competitors. Hope this continues...

So is the X3M a reality or what?
We've been speculating about is and looking at spy shots since 2016! Is there an official word from BMW that the X3M is actually going to happen? or are we just getting the X3 M40i? |

I have been waiting for a replacement for my X5M, but I feel like BMW is too far behind the curve on this one. They REALLY should have introduced the X3M on the previous platform instead of making us wait (We've been talking, speculating about and asking for this for years, for crying out loud!).
Competition has now beat them to market with better and more powerful variants. So what's my motivation? Brand loyalty? Meh... |

All the new stuff is going to be a whole other level of complex cracking and tuning.

The X3 M has been spied inside and out during winter testing. These are the first interior photos and revealed here is the new M shifter and red M1/M2 buttons (camouflaged with black tape) just like those introduced in the F90 M5.

S58 plus all wheel drive sounds like a winning combo to keep up with the Alfa suv and maybe faster off the line than the M4 until that gets all wheel drive. Will be nice if they include a drift mode as well as off road capability with appropriate tires.

This will be a nice upgrade once the M40i gets old

Is the button on the top of the shifter for controlling the gearbox aggressiveness? DCT please!

I think the M3 or the M2 will be the last DCT M cars. They have this same shifter and regular ZF (M tuned) in the new M5. The real question is whether the X3M will have the same M All will drive system. This thing been a long time coming. Its still like a year away right? Gotta keep saving those pennies @_@

I'm pretty excited about this car. I'm still pretty young and a few years off from getting married and having kids and what not, but this would be an excellent family hauler. I'd prolly be looking at the next gen lol.

wonder if the price tag will be over 80k(well equipped). I would rather to drive a M3 if it has the same price.
