Thanks for posting. I'm still not as convinced about the look as I hoped to be. Too subtle for an M.

Thanks for sharing P4NDAM4. First time I've seen an X3M in the wild without the rails, so that's an interesting perspective. Still not sure the reasoning behind leaving the roof rail bases in black rather than the paint color as they did with the X4M, though? Leaving the black rail sub-stripes looks reminiscent of early years inexpensive imports IMO. Why allow it to match in the X4M and not the X3M? Granted this is a pre-production vehicle but all images to date seem to suggest that is the theme they're going to follow with the X3M.

I really want to like this vehicle, but it doesn't look at all unlike the seemingly hundreds of X3s I see every day. Just fatter tires and lowered suspension. I'm REALLY tempted to get the Stelvio Quadrifoglio. Arguably better looks, incredible performance, aggressive pricing, and not likely to pass myself on the street countless times a day.

And I agree, it isn't aggressive enough at all, but I bet it's a blast to drive. I'm in no rush to unload my X5M for it. Plus there are stronger rumors of the RS6 Avant's return, but I'm not holding my breath.

While appreciated, these are pretty terrible pics of a preproduction car and I'm not making any conclusions about looks or driving until i get my hands on one in person.

although not too happy about that stupid gray colored trim on the outside, they should have gone body color or black. |

I honestly like the looks of the X3 M40i better.

Car looks and sounds good,
Not a fan of the wheels, Don't like the way they're throwing "Competition" on the x series too Why can't just being an M be enough for A crossover suv?
