What does this mean? Sorry I don't understand at all.
The rear tires are farther apart on the X4 giving it a wider track (stance) compared to the X3.

So there is more floor space for the spare tire on the X4.
While the X4 has a 1.2" wider rear track than the X3, both the X3 M and X4 M are listed at 63.9" front and 63.1" rear.
I guess they are underestimating it for marketing reasons.

Not unlike BMW to do such a thing.

I agree. The rear is especially FUGLY especially the tail lights.

Yep. This shape works on the X6M, but not on the X4M.
Does it though? 😬

Well. In my opinion it does. I'm rolling in an F86 right now.

Bmw please stop being a knockoff Mercedes and get rid of the Piano Black around the shifter. Thank you.

Aside from that, I quite like the fengshui of the interior!

Yeah, I'm sure that's what will happen.

Just seems silly to have a sticker price that high for this X3? M or not?

There is absolutely no value proposition!!!

It's ~$7k more than a comparable M4 coupe. It's also more vehicle, updated model, nicer interior, etc. It might be more than people think it's worth but it's not out of line on the BMW pricing scale.

I agree. I was going to order one but not with these prices...I'll wait until they're ready to get serious and offer reasonable discounts.....($1500 loyalty discount is not nearly enough; new model or not)

That's to be expected.

But as soon as the initial rush is over they will no doubt sweeten the lease deals.

It's stepping into the old X5/6M territory.

I really want to like this and the X3M over the GLC63's because they will probably drive a bit better, but not really feeling it. Perhaps it's the pics, this interior is , IMO and the pricing is a bit steep. I'm also an Android user and so far, BMW has kicked us to the curb. . Guess I'll just have to drive them to make the ultimate decision, but leaning MB at this point...sad to say.

That's because Android can easily allow hackers to potentially hack into your car.

When that's no longer a concern you might actually see it happening.

I however would not get my hopes up if I were you.
