  My first BMW - 2011 BMW X3
  By joeb57 - July 30 - 9:46 am

  We have owned this vehicle just over six weeks and absolutely love it. The style, RIDE, performance and MPG is as advertised. We test drove several other models and kept going back to the X3. Plus its built in the USA and even my last Chevy was not. A little expensive but with their warranty and my lower mileage, it just made sense.

  First SUV -Its a Good One! - 2011 BMW X3
  By bimmer_dude - June 27 - 1:51 pm

  I wanted something different in my next car. Have been driving BMWs for 15+ years - mostly 3 series an Ms. Test drove the new X3 35i and was smitten. Wanted to buy it there on the spot but the dealership didnt want to sell it to me so I went looking. Found one at another dealership. Had 1 option I really wanted (HiFi Stereo) but soon realized I could live w/o it. This is my first SUV (SAV) and Im enjoying it very much. Not agile as a 335i - but darn close to it, especially with adjustable chassis and throttle settings. Getting 26.6mpg average. VERY impressive. Got that with my last 335i. Comfortable Quite and Fun!! Get one!!

  The ultimate driving machine, SUV edition - 2011 BMW X3
  By pbschroeder - June 20 - 3:33 pm

  We have had this car about 2 weeks. While not as fun to drive as our 335 coupe was, it is great for an SUV. It is faster than every competitor except itself in the turbo version. The seats are supremely comfortable and it has lots of cool storage features. We only got this because we needed a 4 door car, but we have been pleasantly surprised by how much we like it, since we are sports car people. Except a Porsche Cayenne S, nothing else even comes close to this.

I trade of my Jeep 2008 hemi v8 for bmw x3. good mileage about 18 in city. very handy to drive on city roads. lots of features, but very expensive compared to america cars with all those options. never mind bmw is much fun to ride than jeep. and only good about jeep is it was to good on heavy snow roads.

  My new X3 - 2011 BMW X3
  By north34949 - April 16 - 7:56 pm

  We took delivery of our new X-3 at the BMW Performance Center, Greer, SC. Anyone buying a new X-3 should take advantage of this opportunity, it was first rate. Our X-3 had the convenience package, premium package, tech package, and sports package. I wish BMW made more use of buttons than depending on the Idrive but it works well with a cutting edge car. I have test driven several X-3s over the years and found the ride to be choppy and the cabin less than comfortable. All has changed for 2011. At the performance center, we had the opportunity to drive the X-3s (theirs) at the edge of their performance envelope which demonstates how well these cars can perform. Pricing was negotiable!

  sets the bar above the rest - 2011 BMW X3
  By bmwrat - March 29 - 4:53 pm

  total redesign for 2011, the exterior a perfect balance between what sporty and luxurious should be. driving impressions feel solid and responsive. powerful v6 engine even for the 28i model. interior design and technologies completely brought up to date, unlike many luxury car makers whos interiors look like from 1985. idrive is improved but still too many sub menus, somewhat difficult to adjust while driving. priced slightly higher than competitors but well worth the money. you wont be disapointed.
