I like your review speedings and acceleration in different ways that helps much for people are watching how the car is, not like others just driving talking around.
Great review but you might want to check the 0-60 time. Quoted at 4.4, which is the exact same as the Porsche macan turbo (without performance pack) This is because the power is not quoted correctly by bmw, after several companies Dyno tested it, they found it to be at over 400hp.
YorkU Degree thanks for watching! I've got some new audio equipment that has been giving me a hard time. Should have it nailed down in the next few videos. I appreciate the comment!
In the video you said this SUV doesn’t need any more power but your mind would maybe change after you drove the new X5M. Just wondering, have you changed your mind?
Jamie Rowland haven’t driven the x5m yet but I drive the x3m competition and for an everyday sub I like the m40 better. The x3m is too still and I think it actually has a smaller backseat and trunk
If you want the ventilated seats, the colors are limited. I wanted that orange/brownish leather but you can't get ventilation with those. So I opted for black ventilated seats. Ventilated seats also lack adjustable side bolsters. On warmer days, the ventilation helps.... Somewhat. Very disappointed with that. It's important to note for discerning buyers that the seats offered on the new X3 are VENTILATED. They're not AC seats as in some BMW vehicles.
It also depends on the leather choice. I wanted merino leather but couldn’t have the ventilated seats. Only available on vernasca leather for some reason. Must be to do with the porous nature or grain of the different grade of leather.
It’s definitely a 2018. The steering wheel for US made M40i in 2018 didn’t actually have the M steering wheel. The badging in early 2018 production was above the tail lights and in late 2018 moved to the bottom of the truck gate.
I hate when people do car reviews and the camera angle is on them. Put it from the back pointing the cockpit and windshield, listening to u guys is good enough for me. I don’t need to see u!
Rode in an X1 yesterday...I didn’t even know that was a thing! Kinda dig the smaller BMW SUV’s...X1-2-3. 🇩🇪 Fun little side-roads...but I’m headed for Stelvio Country...because Alfa!! 🍀 (Also cross-shopping like a nerd, though...) How about a Volvo XC40/60/70/90 video, just because it’s an option for us in WI with our nasty winters? Curious about the whole ‘Care by Volvo’ subscription service...tbh, it sounds like a great way to get raped by an automaker, but I could be wrong.
Thanks for watching Grant! I really liked this X3. I haven't driven the X1, but I like small and tossable. It's essentially a hatchback in my eyes so that's a plus - lower center of gravity. The Stelvio is fun, I have a video on that one too!
Whenever I take my M40i into the dealership, they seem to give me a X1 as a loaner car (wondering why they don't just have other X3's to lend out). The X1 is a fun subcompact SAV.
I almost bought one of these but it only has a 19.4 degree approach angle compared to the 37.6 degree approach angle offered on the ‘87 Cherokee. Im so glad I went with the ‘87 Cherokee. BMW doesn’t even have a Laredo package either, unacceptable for any car at this price point.
I just bought one today. Changed my life.
Were you fine with possible repair cost buying 5+ years old used car? I am thinking to do same.
@@muditmathur5844it’s a B58. People are driving them 200K miles

Its always fun to watch car reviews when the driver is pumped about the car, makes buying it that much easier 😎
Glad you liked the energy! It really is a good car
What a great emotional delivery which excited and informed everything good and powerful about an unassuming SUV. Well done!
Thanks!
You know your stuff, GREAT review I'm considering this vehicle in the fall.
John. Get it. Hahaha it's awesome I just drove it again recently. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Is this definitely a 2018? I have a 2019 and thought the model badging went to the bottom of the lift gate in 2019.
I have a 2018 and the rear badging is indeed up toward the top of the gate. I love it. Also, great video!

Chief Wiggum woah awesome thanks for commenting!
The "light curtain" comes from under the doors, not the side mirrors like on other cars. That's why the lights don't move when you open your doors.
I wish they came on automatically when I approached the vehicle.
Hey I'm with you, I also have Android, really disappointed in BMW for lack of Android
Another good review man.
geo cape thanks for the support!
For your roller shots, was your camera man in the trunk of the car in front!? 😂
hahahah yup i think i remember that was probably the case
Fantastic review. Difficult to hear properly, but the knowledge of the technical and drive is a must watch.

Fantastic car
Do you own this car or which
Reuben Ahmed I do not own it, I borrowed it from my friends at International Autos BMW in Milwaukee, WI
The car in this video doesn't have adaptive dampers. Not sure why he talks about how well they work. Good video though.
Oops my bad. I was driving and filming with the same car. One had the dampers. Thanks for watching!
Looks like 19 model
Twilights and rear badging
It’s definitely a 2018. The steering wheel for US made M40i in 2018 didn’t actually have the M steering wheel. The badging in early 2018 production was above the tail lights and in late 2018 moved to the bottom of the truck gate.
Interesting. I have a 2019 and thought the badging was up high on the 2018.
I have a 2018 the badging is up high on the gate. On mine, anyway.

Good review but half way through the constant noise of the road joints really became distracting especially when watching with earphones
Ahh I apologise. I'm getting new audio equipment

BMW will probably never get Android Auto. Apple Car Play will become a subscription.

Brian Clayton hahaha just get an XJ Brian!🤣
Brian Clayton, apples and oranges dude.
That's hilarious
I have a 2019 as my daily and my weekend ride is a 6MT Rubicon.
These two go together.
What more could you want? 27 more hp, which is why I bought a 2021, mouwahahahahaha!
İts a real shame european cars dont pop n bang due to emission bulshit
State of those roads are awful ...
Yes they are
He looks yummy!
Why do you drive it with so many pot holes, german cars were meant for Germany, our American roads are horrible.
