My X3MC

Hey guys, long time lurker. Thought I'd stop hiding and say hi to y'all, and thank you for your wealth of experience and data points that helped me through the process.

Went from an '18 x3 M40i to an X3MC. Honestly wasn't looking for a new car, until I went in to service during the May sales slump, and, well, the rest is history....

Black Sapphire with Tartufo. Took these pictures when I took possession with the M40i next to it.

Funny story, a day before my RIS, an ass with his massive pick up decides to spin his wheels at the lights, kicks up a sizable piece of rock, and cracks my windshield. Despite that, she's done really well and I love it.

Added some pics. Includes my then 9 month old baby falling in love with a Bimmer early.

Awesome pics. Congrats on the new vehicle. Love the shot of your baby "driving"! Start 'em early! Shame about the rock, but at least it hit the glass and not the paint.

Thank you! That's the saving grace on the rock hitting the car. When that happens first thing in the morning, it sets the mood for the day lol.

Congrats and welcome.
Start them young as we always says.

As other said, good thing it was the windshield, not body panel.

Congrats! Nice color combo. Hope the windshield is the first & last issue you have with your rig. Your little one is adorable!

Congrats on the new ride. Looks like you definitely have a future BMW driver there. Ugh bad luck with the front windshield.

Welcome and congratulations! The picture of a future M (electric most likely ...) driver is priceless.
