That's awesome!

Seriously though why is everyone so pressed with 0 to 60 etc.

I get it's a benchmark

What's it like to drive?

Speed would be so far down the priority
List for me with an suv.

Looks, comfort, and suitable performance for a Sport Suv.

Nice numbers OP!

Not sure yet. Somehow BMW can get SUVs to hook up better than their sports cars.

Looking good OP

I just drove one and I love it, very impressed.

Thinking replacing the M240 now
Damn, what are you up to?
Still getting the G80 M3?
Can't wait anywhere. Lol

Most likely I will get the G80. I went for a test drive to replace the 19' M240xi and test drove the X5 M50i and I like it until I got into X3M CP

It's hard to resist the X3M CP
who let u drive my X3M????

Right. So does it handle as good as a Porsche Macan? How stiff and buttoned down is the chassis.

I am strongly considering it.

Like the exhaust note for being stock.

That's the rub. It's an SUV, so will be fighting against a high CoG. Just all calm down and wait for the new M3/4. All the talk will then be about that and how well it handles and not just 0-60.

I love my F80 and C63S, for how quickly they can accelerate from 40-120mph. 0-60 just doesn't correspond to normal driving.

We may have an even better solution. If someone would take their X3M by Stealth Hitch in Atlanta, Steve there would be more than happy to see if their solution for the G01 is compatible with the F97. If so, I'm definitely getting a stealth hitch. I actually like it better than the factory hitch I had on my G01.

Thanks again.
They will also be quicker in the magazine articles since C&D, MT, etc use rollout for the 1/4 mile like my results above and also use roll out for the 0 to 60mph runs.

My 0-60 in 3.57 seconds did not use roll out. With roll out (12") it was 3.38 seconds.

Pure stock that is massively impressive. My F90M5 was 3.01 with rollout on the same "track". My F85X5M was 3.60 with roll out and RaceChip, Dinan Intake, Akra, etc. Pure stock was 3.95 F85X5M 1/4 mile on the same "track" was 12.2 at 114mph pure stock. 11.85 at 117.x with the mods. The stock X3MC is insane. BMW has a dilemma .....the new X5M is coming this fall....with the M5 awesome V8TT...but 600-620hp will not overcome 510hp and 900lbs weight delta.....unless BMW cuts weight on the X5M....the X3MC will be quicker/faster....not good...If they up the HP on the V8TT...the M5 market will be pissed....not good...real dilemma
That time also beats my M3 CS. According to BMW anyway. Now if my CS was X drive......
