Found these vids on the facetubes. Thought I'd throw this up. Some 3rd person views and raw sounds of an X3MC from a test drive. Thanks to whoever filmed this. Last edited by Mtxzptlk; 06-14-2019 at 08:12 PM.. |

I wouldn't be so quick to jump on some sort of engineering deficiency with the vehicle. |

Is the M Town Tour event something where you take the car out on the road or is it in a closed circuit in their parking lot (where you can experience some "M" driving)? I signed up for it but not sure how wild I'd get with an M850i if I'm on the 35 mph roads around my dealership lol

I just got back from a test drive in the X3M Competition on the BMW M town tour here in DFW. Was pretty excited for the X3M as my 2016 F80 is going to be replaced sometime in the near future. They let me take the car by myself on a 4 mile loop mixed highway and city. The car was the Donnington grey with yellow/orange inserts, pretty sure it's the same car in the video, it had around 5100 miles on it now.
I did a few pulls from various speeds and pretty disappointed with the S58 motor. It just didn't feel like a 503 hp, not sure if it was the weight of the SUV or what but it felt slower than a stock F80 non ZCP. On the plus side the interior was really nice compared to F8x and the transmission was really good with lightning fast upshifts. The ride was pretty compliant and the steering feel was not bad for a SUV, pretty direct. I just can't see dropping 80K+ if I didn't love the engine. Hopefully it feels better in the upcoming G8x M3/M4. |

Not sure Cosmos what you were experiencing but most everyone else seems very impressed with its performance for what it is. I know I am jaded having driving 600+ hp cars for the past several years (M6 full mods 720hp, X5M full mods 725hp, Alpina B7 607 hp to name a few) and I am curious as well. Mine will be in the dealership in about a week and a half so I will definitely post.
