Can I ask how the ride is compared to an f90?

Hard for me to compare since we basically had KW Clubsports in the F90 right away Ride is very smooth in the X3M even in Sport+. My favorite settings at the moment are all options in SPORT.

I am not a fan of white cars but this X3 MC looks awesome as bring to life every detail. I have a opportunity to test drive one and is amazing. My only shot is they BMW did not put a Carbon Fiber Strut Brace as they show in their promotion. I think it is the missing piece to complete this great vehicle.

IMO, It would be in their M Performance line.

I found it.
To handle the extra power and improve the driving experience, engineers worked to stiffen the chassis. But if you place your order after August of this year, you'll have the option of trading your regular front strut brace for a carbon fiber-reinforced plastic one.

Here is the article

Very interested in where this build goes. I’ve got 500 miles on mine now and a couple of things are coming to mind:

1) I’m going to call it ‘the wheel well liner’ - it’s the body colored piece that looks like it’s bolted on to the inside of the wheel well. If it is indeed an appendage, then this part is begging to be replaced with something that flares a little wider allowing for bigger wheel/tire sets.

2) I’m no wheel figment guru, but the thought of 20” BBS FI-Rs in Diamond Black finish on my DMG X3M Comp is *very* tempting. Hopefully something like this is possible with BBS’ FI-R offerings.

Coupling the above can make the stance much more aggressive, IMO.

Note that the new cars are 5x112 which would limit you to the 20x9" 35mm designed for the R8 and Huracan and 20x9.5" 25mm designed for the RS7 and a bunch of other VAG products.

As the RS7 is a heavy bastard I'd go with that setup all around as they will be strong enough. I'm not sure if the Huracan one would be strong enough for the front of an X3M.

Stay tuned for more updates from IND!



































Great looking X combo as well.
