New X3 Owner
Hi all,
Just wanted to report I am the new happy owner of an Alpine White BMW X3 2.8. I recently purchased the car for my mother, and had an amazing ordering and pick-up experience. We got a fantastic deal from David Aviles at Northwest BMW (bmwdavid@me.com) despite being from Florida, and did the PCD delivery. I would highly recommend David as there was no haggling, stress, and everything was handled over phone/email. I just recently returned from the PCD and I must say it was a blast. I had previously done the European Delivery for my M3, and this was very different but equally fun. We got to drive the X3s on the BMW off-road course and I was impressed by its handling. We also got a ring-taxi-like ride in the M5 with an instructor which left our adrenaline pumping, and did the skid-pad on the new 3-series with and without the DSC. The drive home on the new X3 was very pleasant. It does have a diesel-like sound when starting-up but the power is very smooth and plentiful. The transmission is amazing as well as the handling. We did the slalom at the PCD on the X3, and I felt like I was in a regular 3-series the handling was so good. Overall it was a great experience and I'd highly recommend the PCD for anyone considering a new X-BMW. I might be getting an X3 for myself as a second car after this...
