Every car guy/petrol head is that way. Heck I even watch minivan and by far the worst type of car for me personally, a small suv or cuv reviews because I'm interested in the car world overall. As far as this channel goes I'm actually surprised they don't have many more subscribers. The quality of the content they put out and consistency with uploading new videos are spot on!

Finally, someone understands what BMW is doing with their interiors. I hear far too often that BMW interiors are boring, and that they can’t keep up with Mercedes or Audi. That’s not true. I work for BMW, and have been told by Corporate that they want an easy to use layout, so that driver’s can focus on the road.
Well I wouldnt say boring, the interior leather and ambient lighting just makes it so much better, interior layout is nothing if there is no quality and with that, BMW delivers. BMW offers far more interior color choice than audi and Mercedes on most of there models, I think BMW interiors are great.
@@cowmath77 my point is, BMW refuses to go with flash over functionality. Everyone is already complaining about how Mercedes and Audi new interior screens washout in the sunlight, and how there’s fingerprints and dust everywhere.
People say BMW's interior is boring. I'd say it's timeless while other brands' interiors are saturated with one thousand screens that go obsolete three months after release.

Not really related, but this "boring" interior is why I prefer the 7 series over the S class. Not too many screens going on in the interior. I just hope their exterior designs become more cohesive going forward. The new 3 and 4 series, the i series cars and the XM aren't looking good at all, and that will hurt the brand image.
As a truck driver I can say you almost never see these vehicles in places where you can hit it hard. The majority of the go fast cars I see are downtown in the most packed parts of the city. Street lights every 8th of a mile. All of this to say 0 to 60 in 3 secs but these owners rarely tap into half of that.
@Max Bloodnovski appreciate that you have an above-room-temp IQ and vote red, but the point remains that there are simply far too many people here now and new Yorkers are like a plague of disgusting locusts inflaming the already bad traffic and insane home prices. Kindly go back up north and spare us all or we'll have to start getting aggressive with yall 🤙
In the opener, Mark calls it a X5M. Not sure if that was a simple mistake, or a clever way to point out that the x3 and x5 are virtually indistinguishable from each other without the badging.

Ah I think they are distinguishable mainly because of the size, expecially as m-cars. The otherday I saw an x7 next to an x5 and didn't know if i was looking at an x3 and x5 or not tho
Usually I agree with you two but I drove the m40i x3 and the maccan back to back and i loved the x3 more. The iDrive is so good that I never use apple car play anymore. The engine is superb and one of the smoothest turbo charged engines in the game. The m version sounds even better.
The X3 M40i is a little bit less precise than a Macan, but it has more character. Sometimes a car being a bit 'too perfect' is not quite as fun ... The B58 (particularly how they tuned it in the M40i at 382hp) is all rough and rumbly and has torque at just about every RPM, while still being smooth when you don't push it. I enjoy it very much too. And while it's not as fast as a X3M (B58 vs S58), it's still plenty powerful and it has a much better ride than the X3M, particularly with the 19" wheels ... I think it's a better compromise for road usage honestly.
The Macan is very nice but it feels like a compact hatch to me (I’m 6’4”) It doesn’t feel nearly as great as everyone says. They are beautiful and do all of the things really well, but I feel like the purpose of the Macan in this world is to give auto journalists a foil for which to play other vehicles against…a magical Halo vehicle that everyone tells you is perfect, best ever but no one but some journalists have actually driven in top trim with all of the things. Then I wonder, what is it about the Macan that makes it so magical for someone and after driving one…I don’t see it. Around town you could not tell me it’s better than another quasi-comparable option. I think the Macan at its limit might be as magical as people claim, but for normal hooning there is absolutely no way I’d walk away from it saying, wow that is the best of its kind. Ever. No fricking way it’s good, really good, great even…but vehicles have character and Macan represents a refined character but not necessarily the most desirable character. I think the Macan exists simply as a tool used by journalists to try and keep car companies honest and not too big for their britches.

Mark and Jack understand "boring" BMW interiors. When one desires a functioning interior, the design coalesces around one particularly functional design. Physical controls are not completely abandoned for deep menus for immediately needed controls. Alternatively available user designated shortcut switches are available. The owner can make the information systems work for them rather than being forced to adapt to some pretty abstract video game parlor design.
This so much! What's funny is BMW kind of invented the useless interior in 2002 with the e65 and have since come full circle and now build some of the most useable modern interiors for high end cars.
And now they are, smh unless you ordered one in the first year they now all come with the new giant screen iDrive 8 interior. People say it’s not all that bad but no way it’s better than physical controls, screens are great for most things but climate control or volume control physical controls are so much better.
I have 10k on my 2020 and everything you said is spot on! For the average enthusiast the X3M 40I with the B58 is a way better proposition but I traded that in for this and the S58. The turbo motor that sounds, revs and acts like a NA. Revs to 7200rpm maybe 7400 limiter. I love the Idrive 6 with the old fashion speedo and tach in the 2020 and not all the complicated menus and metal on the dash. If you turn off all the nanny's mdm/dsc there is nothing to save you except your skills. Every time I fire her up I feel like I am going for a ride not a drive. I plan on keeping this one for a long time! I love that the average person has no idea that this will blow the doors off of 99% of anything on the road in acceleration and handling. Keep hating also because I like to drive rare cars that don't cost a fortune🤑 but are rare. The only thing that changed is it used to cost $30 to fill up now it is $60🤔.
Living vicariously through Mark and Jack! @Jack you were right about the NX. We picked it up last Saturday (F sport with all the bells and whistles and to be honest, I’m a bit underwhelmed! I’d buy this if the NX wasn’t my wife’s car! On the flip side, my IS500 is arriving next month!!
Curious to hear about your IS500 sir. I'll be honest, it's a tough sell for me over the M340i personally. And I say personally, because I already have a V8 rwd sportscar for the summer--I think I would want a more sober daily vehicle than the IS500. That means AWD, larger cabin, better tech, etc.. but, on the flip side, you have the long term Lexus reliability, which what you also want for daily driver.
@@jamesmin2837 I totally get that. And for us, the IS500 became the right car due to the V8 (I’ll be parting ways from my E39 M5), we have had more lively cars too (Porsche 911 and Caymans) which are too low for my wife since she had a knee procedure, and so the IS500 offers that combo of retro, luxury, and analog that I was looking to get. For me, its not about going fast, it’s about the handling and connecting with the car as your reach speed. The M340 is a phenomenal car, but after spending way too much money in modern BMW maintenance, I promised the wife that I would lean towards reliability which “limits” me to her own perception of reliability based on “facts” which is Lexus and Porsche. So at this price range, for us this would be a well equipped Macan/Macan S or the IS500 and I prefer the understated (somewhat) perception of the Lexus vs the Porsche and lower maintenance costs. Again, I’m a unique use case, but from the dealer that I have been working with, most people are looking for a reasonably fun, luxurious ride and are long term Lexus fans. Perhaps the same folks that wanted a GSF but didn’t pull the trigger at the time.
@@jackholmes8105 thanks! Appreciate your honest thoughts! If you are ever in Atlanta, you can borrow it for a little tail of the dragon/road atlanta “spirited driving”
I test drove 2 GLC63S (1 SUV and 1 Coupe) and then felt like something was missing from the drive. (it didn't help that I just got out of my M2 to walk into the GLC test drive) I then test drove an X3M and immediately remembered what was missing; the driving engagement/fun to drive aspect. Although I do agree the X3M is on the firmer side, the GLC was the complete opposite and way too comfortable for it to be engaging, it felt disconnected from the road. I size down to 20" for winter setup here in Canada and it does help smooth out the stiffness a bit. Honestly at this price point there is nothing that drives like it in the segment other than the Stelvio Quadrifoglio but I heard too many reliability horrors with it to gamble with it. As always, great review !

Size down for summer as well tbh. Find a rim/tire size you're content with and keep the same dimensions but just swap winter/summer tires. It's an SUV not a gt3 RS... There is literally ZERO need for 21@s apart from cosmetically and quite honestly they impact the driving experience so are a negative overall.
I remember when iDrive first came out, and people just tore into it for needing way too many steps to get something done. But it sounds like being persistent in improving it over the years has paid off for BMW. (Lexus, you listening?)
I've had 4 versions of iDrive over the years. It has improved significantly in each rev, for the most part. I actually think iDrive 6 was the best of them, rather than iDrive 7 in my current car. It was VERY intuitive for use with the iDrive wheel. 7 was born with Touch Screen assumed, and some features are now a little awkward to use with just the wheel (which is easier to use while moving without taking your eyes off the road at all). Thankfully, the voice commands have improved and do work for most of the slightly awkward bits of the OS.
Do you still like 2 years later? Is it as crazy as it looks to be? I know it’s shockingly livable every day, but does it truly impress in your experience?
Or a competition for who is the biggest douche in town. Here in Central-Europe you barely see any decent human being in these cars. Mostly wannabe thugs and i-am-a-wealthy-entrepreneur-look-at-me type of people.
Great to finally see a professional review of the LCI! Looks like you guys thought the suspension was unchanged, some people are saying the LCI is improved, or that a software update improved things, could just be a placebo. At least our roads are smooth in FL. Glad to see you liked it, I placed an order for this same spec last week (not frozen)! Cheers

I live in Naples. All the complaints on the ride unfortunately make this baby a no-go for me. I do not find our roads to be smooth. The texture of them and NVH they cause is horrible.
Great review guys! My wife drives one daily and I always grab the keys when it's not being used. As far as the ride comfort, the aftermarket solves this. We run MSS adjustable springs coupled with the stock active dampeners. The softer rates have improved the ride and my two kids haven't complained at all on roadtrips. Have serviced it twice at BMW dealerships and they haven't said anything about the adj springs or denied any claims (they replaced a whole headlight assembly because of led failure). I love this thing 🥳

Half of the problem with ALL new cars and people complaining about harsh rides is the fact they have SUV's running on low(ish) profile tires and 21's. There just isn't enough cushioning between the last metal point of contact and the road. Best solution for an x3m? Go down to 20's and a 10mm wider tire front and rear along with a one size larger profile than stock so 255/40r21 to 265/45r20 for example. It makes all the difference, suits the car looking meaty and helps ride quality without ripping the OEM suspension out. Personal opinion but low profiles on cars nowadays is fucking gaudy and pointless. It's nothing more than a vanity item as the majority of owners will never push their car enough ON TRACK to warrant rim/tire setups brands give you from the showroom. Bit of a rant lol.
Honestly most dealerships don’t care, bmw is the one that cares and they won’t single you out, unless you have a tune and you keep breaking parts then that’s when you gotta worry, we got modified cars with meth injection all the time and they’re still fine regarding warranty
Great video!! The full M version is amazing. Comparatively The X3 M40i is just superb! THE X3 M40i is the car I ended up purchasing over the more ridged ride of The X3 M which is absolutely phenomenal. It simply came down to which car “rides/drives” the very best as daily driver in fun full send beast-mode and as a regular daily driver. This is the best review for this car and it covers the one thing this car has yet to address *ride quality. I’d love to see a side by side comparison review of the X3 M (non-competition) and the X3 M40i. Lastly, the summer tires that these cars come equipped with are fantastic for “SUMMER” the same tires in the “All Season” variant the Yokohama AdvanSport / AS simply make this car a flat out joy to drive! Better stopping and takeoff when temps are below 45F as they are now! QUESTION. What are the winter tires on the car as reviewed? Thanks.
"you're not buying this as a sports car replacement" I bought an X4M Comp precisely because I could not get a Z or a Supra down my steep drive into the garage. So while an SUV suited me for towing jetskis, accessing an incredibly steep driveway and general coastal lifestyle I did have my heart set on traditional sports car so the performance & handling as well as the practicality were up there for me.
I just swapped my 21 BMW M2 competition for a 2022 X3M competition, and many people look at the price tag and think it's alot but when you look at the performance numbers this is like BMW mini trackhawk, it defies physics in so many ways. This thing can pretty much annihilate anything on the road in it's stock form, when you see what any srt product is currently going for, this is pretty much bang for your buck and way more upscale than those vehicles when you consider this to be at least $15-20k less in the current market , it becomes an enticing offering, once you drive sports cars and use to the ride that sports cars are supposed to have this honestly isn't as bad as advertised by some reviewers but some people don't understand what they are signing up for and think they will be gliding on Aladdin's carpet but I daily drive this and it is truly a joy to drive and this is a keeper in the long term
@@trephination1 You swapped one of the best practical sports cars on the market for a crossover with an identity crisis. Y.... you're too far gone if you don't understand why that is a decision that makes no sense whatsoever.
I probably would've just bought a track Hawk. I don't think I would've ever thought about buying a Jeep over a BMW, but the track Hawk probably has better resale and it's about as reliable as current BMW products

Back when they first came out I test drove the X3 M40i and SQ5 back to back.. The X3 blew my mind as to how sharp and focused it was. The Audi on the other hand was like a fast mattress. So cozy and isolated. I walked away that day with the Audi as my pick because I loved the top notch ride and cabin isolation. The powertrain of the Audi was adequate but far from remarkable. The powertrain of the BMW was unforgettable, however. I've seen and heard so many comments about the bad ride in the X3m, I wouldn't be able to consider one on that alone. It sure is a mean machine, though! I wonder if the refreshed M40i is any improvement in ride comfort over the M.. So glad BMW is somewhat "back".. Another great review, boys!
I really don't get the sporty suvs, specially when they compromise on the suv advantages which are ride and space. Audi does them excellent because they are still very comfortable which is what people want on a daily suv, but it is plenty fast for when you want to race someone or just have fun. If you want a very sharp and focused vehicle, just get a car and not an suv.
@@evaristocorripio5434 only advantage an suv has is the clearance height which also allows for higher visual depth. Good for driving in heavy traffic with trucks blocking exit signs on the highway. Not so great at cutting lanes at high speeds. 1 slip u dead
As a previous 2020 X3M owner I had 2 main gripes. The ride (as you mentioned in the video). The powerband. Unless you were using launch control it was a total dud under 60mph. Useless for stop and go daily driving. Above 60 it had so much power I couldn’t even use it because I was in triple digits in no time. Traded for an M340i. Not as fast in the quarter but that single turbo spools so much faster than the twins that it’s much better in traffic. I also picked up a trackhawk. That satisfied my off the line throttle response and softer ride suv. Not as refined or pretty as the X3M but I enjoy driving it much more than I did the X3M.
Great video guys, though I would add one note - an X3 has far, far more space than a Macan. I’m 6’2 and considered both those, a Stelvio (which I ended up getting), and a few others like the XC60 and SQ5. I could fit behind myself with room to spare in all of them with the Stelvio being tight, but the Macan was an entirely different level. If you ever have anyone in the backseat or use cargo capacity, the Macan is simply too small - smaller even than my GTI. That could be a deciding factor and I think was glossed over.

Yes I totally agree. I have a first gen q5. I assumed the macan being closely related would be similar size. It's slightly smaller on the outside but somehow significantly smaller on the inside.
Agreed. I've been considering a Macan and that's part of my hesitation. I have an XC60 R design currently and the back seat is really nice! I wish it had some recline, but I rode half way cross-country back there and it was wonderful! The climate controls in the second row really help with overall comfort.

But I wanted it because the 4 cylinder is considerably more powerful and (surprisingly, since bmw underrated) a lot quicker - I think the Stelvio traps at about 100 in the quarter vs 95 or so for the X3. Plus, I owned a 2017 340i and found the ZF 8 speed to be way too slow in comfort and over aggressive in sport and feared the same for the x3. I love the Alfa ZF tuning. Lastly, just thought the Stelvio was cool. Is the interior as high quality? No, but the main touch points (steering wheel, sports seats, paddle shifters) were nicer IMO. It was also SIGNIFICANTLY more fun, way better steering and ride, and I have the performance package with adaptive dampers and the rear mechanical LSD, the former of which few x3’s have and the latter which no 4 cylinder x3’s have. X3’s are kind of a mom car to me, and I found the Stelvio to be fun, unique, and have a lot of personality. I really recommend driving one if you haven’t!
May I ask why is it necessary to buy a SUV while the 3 series has plenty of space for a kid + has decent safety? Simply do not understand this false sense of safety what people feel in the SUV-s. Meanwhile everybody buys these shitcans and it is a nightmare to drive in town because of them.
Always find it interesting when youtubers still comment on capacitive touch buttons for favorites in BMWs. I have these in a very entry level E90 from 13+ years ago and never use them
X3M owner here. Totally disagree with the "its pretty small, it cant be a hauler" part. I've driven 5 full sized adults around in it, I've driven 2 adults and a 200 lb dresser. I've driven 5 adults, a grill, camping supplies and a giant cooler in the back. The idea that I can do this with a 500hp race car (that still gets 21 mpg when my wife's crosstrek gets 24mpg) is absolutely hilarious. The other thing I might disagree with is the interior. My buddy picked me up in his Q5 the other week and my first thought was "WOW, this leather is way nicer than my car." Though it did seem like infotainment, etc wasnt as good, so I could see what you mean there. Otherwise, great review!
These are much much better than the x3 from 10 years ago, but can't imagine buying one off lease with 18 months of warranty. Last I heard, BMW water pumps and thermostats were running $1600 and that was years ago. Those had been failing at around 60k miles. Combined with the xdrive gremlins, blower motor failures and $500 replacement batteries requiring dealer pairing with the car, and the impression is that even if you buy a cpo BMW, it's umbilical cord remains attached to the service department.
I own X3 m40i and its perfect as a family car with 2 kids. I have passive suspension and 20in staggered wheels so ride is stiff. Looking to upgrade to X3M probably next. The Macan is much smaller and rear seat is almost useless if you have kids with car seats.
So i just picked up a 22 X3M Comp in Marina Bay Blue in Mid December, over the month i have had it, its quickly become my favorite car i ever owned. It is fast, yet practical. It sounds good and looks even better. The ride while not like driving on a cloud is much better then the 20 and 21 versions. Its a good daily driver. The MPG could be better but its not the worst in its class of high performance SUVs. Love the car
Agree with the review. It’s a very rough ride for a daily driver. I test drove it with the OEM run flats and the ride was very harsh and jarring in comfort mode. I’m sure it would be better shod with regular tires.
This looks really, really good. And I'm old enough to remember when every BMW in the lineup looked good. These days, about 30% of BMW designs look like they're from Crazytown.
Hey dudes the reviews are always great but WHO makes your intro music? It’s ALL great. Just watched the 911 GTS and GTS cab vid, that intro music was great too. It’s all so good. Is there a playlist of it available?
Definitely deserve two thumbs up just for having the Lost Boys soundtrack pulled up on the infotainment… “I still believe” w/ that jacked saxophone dude! lol. such a great movie & such a great soundtrack! 👍👍
I used to be such a BMW hater but they are indeed making some great products these days. Great engines, great transmissions and tuning, good interiors and infotainment and the reliability is much improved. Thanks for the quick look at the updated X3M Mark and Jack.
The only criticism that I have about the channel is that you often miss out while talking about the purpose of SUVs..which is to haul luggage, pets, people etc. I hate trying to find other videos that highlight how practical or impractical the trunk/boot is for these SUVs. I have specific needs (large dog and kid) and need to know whether both would fit comfortably in a vehicle. Otherwise, you guys do a great job in keeping us entertained
i have one, it is a great vehicle. i drove a 9114s and turbo s, it is absolutely comparable and 2 thirds cheaper, and you can do all the fun stuff with a washing machine in the back, worth every penny compared to anything else. harder ride does not bother me at all and welcome it to have such amazing handling on twisted roads, hit 200km like nothing and is extremely stable at high speeds....love it.

I agree has that bmw has the best interior in terms of function and quality, except for the dashboard. On the other hand, Audi’s new interiors have gone downhill quality. The plastics on both the new a3 and q3 are terrible.

Audi a3 and q3 doesn't compete with the x3, competes with an x1. Audi competitor to this is the audi sq5 and in reality its not because there is no rsq5.
@@evaristocorripio5434 yes I know they are not true competitors but if you listen to the video he said bmw as a whole has the best interiors. I am just pointing out the interiors of Audi have gone downhill in terms of quality. The q3 and a3 were my examples. Also there is some cost cutting with the q5 interiors (the plastics on the Interior doors are too hard and the plastic below the hvac unit is pretty cheap.)
Rewatched the GV70 review recently, where you guys mention x3 in context of "who cares for that extra". I guess when money is not a factor, this is what you would get, although then you can basically get anything you want... I understand the engineering advantages and etc., but still I'm confused.
The GV70 is not a sports SUV. The Genesis brand is more focused on comfort. Compared to a regular old X3, the GV70 could be a much better deal for a comfortable and well equipped daily driver. But it won't deliver any thrills, like the M versions from BMW do. So really, it depends on what you want. Sports or comfort.
@@weedmastersr but that's the point - there's such a margin of people wanting sport sedans or coupes, and with SUVs - that's even less than that. At this price point - this is a very, very niche product, even with current SUV brain damage trend we are at right now.
Great video. I love it in blue. I reviewed both the X3M and the X5M last year. Crazy fast and crazy expensive. For $90k you will see a lot of depreciation, for that price i would choose a slightly used X5M over a new X3M. The X5M is more powerful and the engine/exhaust sounded so much better
That cool shortcut buttons feature that shows you what they do when you hover your finger on them is actually a long time(ish) BMW feature! My 2011 M3 had them, and im sure most other E9x cars (or at least LCI ones). Surprised me when I first discovered that they did that and thought it was really cool and well thought out by BMW. I used my shortcuts to turn off the iDrive hump screen and dark mode for the nav.
I have a love and hate relationship with the x3m because even though it has great performance, it’s very existence is preventing us in North America from getting a m3 station wagon 😢
Very well done guys!! Owned a macan turbo and went to a x4mcomp. Agree the porsche is so competent but that same competency makes it boring day to day. The x4mcomp rawness is so different than anything on the market and it's the only suv that gives me that experience that only Sports cars are usually only able to provide. Not to mention x4mc is in a different league when it comes to speed than a macan. Most important although you mention it's a bit harsh, you realize that there is a component of of people who specifically want that from an M car and especially a comp, very few of the other reviewers seem to understand that. That handling capability and its ability to communicate what the road surface is saying(through the seat, not so much steering) is what seperates it from the others.
Will i ever even consider this vehicle? No. Did i still watch the whole thing? Yes! The best auto channel on UA-cam, as always, great attention to detail, well spoken and packed with info. Great job as always guys.

Finally, someone understands what BMW is doing with their interiors. I hear far too often that BMW interiors are boring, and that they can’t keep up with Mercedes or Audi. That’s not true. I work for BMW, and have been told by Corporate that they want an easy to use layout, so that driver’s can focus on the road.
Well I wouldnt say boring, the interior leather and ambient lighting just makes it so much better, interior layout is nothing if there is no quality and with that, BMW delivers. BMW offers far more interior color choice than audi and Mercedes on most of there models, I think BMW interiors are great.
@@cowmath77 my point is, BMW refuses to go with flash over functionality. Everyone is already complaining about how Mercedes and Audi new interior screens washout in the sunlight, and how there’s fingerprints and dust everywhere.
I agree. Most people just look for fancy looking interiors instead of practicality. I always preferred BMW interiors to Mercedes or Audi.
@@TheDalitis8 I agree an in the end. BMW interiors always end up looking the most timeless. They age very well
In the Netherlands this thing costs $167.000 dollar!! (146.500 euro’s) thanks to the Co2 tax nonsense.. 😒
People say BMW's interior is boring. I'd say it's timeless while other brands' interiors are saturated with one thousand screens that go obsolete three months after release.

Totally agree - I've been praising them since the E90 flat-top dash.
Not really related, but this "boring" interior is why I prefer the 7 series over the S class. Not too many screens going on in the interior. I just hope their exterior designs become more cohesive going forward. The new 3 and 4 series, the i series cars and the XM aren't looking good at all, and that will hurt the brand image.
As a truck driver I can say you almost never see these vehicles in places where you can hit it hard. The majority of the go fast cars I see are downtown in the most packed parts of the city. Street lights every 8th of a mile. All of this to say 0 to 60 in 3 secs but these owners rarely tap into half of that.
Come to boca raton, we've got soccer moms and 16 y/o girls absolutely FLYING from stoplight to stoplight in cars like these.

I caught that also..
its just a happy little accident. itll be our little secret
I saw that too.
Ah I think they are distinguishable mainly because of the size, expecially as m-cars. The otherday I saw an x7 next to an x5 and didn't know if i was looking at an x3 and x5 or not tho
Everytime you hear the word “Bespoke” add a Patagonia item to your cart.
Usually I agree with you two but I drove the m40i x3 and the maccan back to back and i loved the x3 more. The iDrive is so good that I never use apple car play anymore. The engine is superb and one of the smoothest turbo charged engines in the game. The m version sounds even better.
The X3 M40i is a little bit less precise than a Macan, but it has more character. Sometimes a car being a bit 'too perfect' is not quite as fun ... The B58 (particularly how they tuned it in the M40i at 382hp) is all rough and rumbly and has torque at just about every RPM, while still being smooth when you don't push it. I enjoy it very much too. And while it's not as fast as a X3M (B58 vs S58), it's still plenty powerful and it has a much better ride than the X3M, particularly with the 19" wheels ... I think it's a better compromise for road usage honestly.
yes with a different and softer suspension, which was his major beef with this vehicle.
The Macan is very nice but it feels like a compact hatch to me (I’m 6’4”) It doesn’t feel nearly as great as everyone says. They are beautiful and do all of the things really well, but I feel like the purpose of the Macan in this world is to give auto journalists a foil for which to play other vehicles against…a magical Halo vehicle that everyone tells you is perfect, best ever but no one but some journalists have actually driven in top trim with all of the things. Then I wonder, what is it about the Macan that makes it so magical for someone and after driving one…I don’t see it. Around town you could not tell me it’s better than another quasi-comparable option. I think the Macan at its limit
might be as magical as people claim, but for normal hooning there is absolutely no way I’d walk away from it saying, wow that is the best of its kind. Ever. No fricking way it’s good, really good, great even…but vehicles have character and Macan represents a refined character but not necessarily the most desirable character. I think the Macan exists simply as a tool used by journalists to try and keep car companies honest and not too big for their britches.
That S58 engine is a beast. The pre LCI did 3.3 sec 0-60, imagine what the extra Torque does to it.

I have been binge watching your content the last couple of days. Each video is a small movie. Great content guys!
i honestly don't like other UA-cam reviewers now because they don't get as specific and detailed. And with emotion
It always amazes me how Jack stays so calm and speaks so well as Mark drives like a straight savage.
Trust built over time, I guess.
(Maybe also trust in BMW crash safety.)
Mark and Jack understand "boring" BMW interiors. When one desires a functioning interior, the design coalesces around one particularly functional design. Physical controls are not completely abandoned for deep menus for immediately needed controls. Alternatively available user designated shortcut switches are available. The owner can make the information systems work for them rather than being forced to adapt to some pretty abstract video game parlor design.
This so much!
What's funny is BMW kind of invented the useless interior in 2002 with the e65 and have since come full circle and now build some of the most useable modern interiors for high end cars.
And now they are, smh unless you ordered one in the first year they now all come with the new giant screen iDrive 8 interior. People say it’s not all that bad but no way it’s better than physical controls, screens are great for most things but climate control or volume control physical controls are so much better.
I’m 18 months into mine and I haven’t stopped smiling it’s a dream machine
I feel like the Macan is a scalpel, whereas the X3M is a massive hammer.
My wife calls my massive hammer her "X3M"
What part of your body got the Porsche crest tattoo?
The Macan is a boat compared to an x3m, having driven both.
@josephkowalczyk7459 same here!
I have 10k on my 2020 and everything you said is spot on! For the average enthusiast the X3M 40I with the B58 is a way better proposition but I traded that in for this and the S58. The turbo motor that sounds, revs and acts like a NA. Revs to 7200rpm maybe 7400 limiter. I love the Idrive 6 with the old fashion speedo and tach in the 2020 and not all the complicated menus and metal on the dash. If you turn off all the nanny's mdm/dsc there is nothing to save you except your skills. Every time I fire her up I feel like I am going for a ride not a drive. I plan on keeping this one for a long time! I love that the average person has no idea that this will blow the doors off of 99% of anything on the road in acceleration and handling. Keep hating also because I like to drive rare cars that don't cost a fortune🤑 but are rare. The only thing that changed is it used to cost $30 to fill up now it is $60🤔.
X3 M40 owner, might be following in your steps upgrading to the X3M... Now that the Macan Turbo is gone.
I have a 22 x3m40 and have been thinking about upgrading to the X3M competition
Awesome. The gas issue is Bidens fault not the cars :)
How is mpg between m40i and M? I’ve heard x3m mpg terrible… worse than x5m…
A filled up tank costs €140,- euro's here in the Netherlands. This car costs €130.000,- euro's so please stop complaining
Living vicariously through Mark and Jack! @Jack you were right about the NX. We picked it up last Saturday (F sport with all the bells and whistles and to be honest, I’m a bit underwhelmed! I’d buy this if the NX wasn’t my wife’s car! On the flip side, my IS500 is arriving next month!!
Curious to hear about your IS500 sir. I'll be honest, it's a tough sell for me over the M340i personally. And I say personally, because I already have a V8 rwd sportscar for the summer--I think I would want a more sober daily vehicle than the IS500. That means AWD, larger cabin, better tech, etc.. but, on the flip side, you have the long term Lexus reliability, which what you also want for daily driver.
@@jamesmin2837 I totally get that. And for us, the IS500 became the right car due to the V8 (I’ll be parting ways from my E39 M5), we have had more lively cars too (Porsche 911 and Caymans) which are too low for my wife since she had a knee procedure, and so the IS500 offers that combo of retro, luxury, and analog that I was looking to get. For me, its not about going fast, it’s about the handling and connecting with the car as your reach speed. The M340 is a phenomenal car, but after spending way too much money in modern BMW maintenance, I promised the wife that I would lean towards reliability which “limits” me to her own perception of reliability based on “facts” which is Lexus and Porsche. So at this price range, for us this would be a well equipped Macan/Macan S or the IS500 and I prefer the understated (somewhat) perception of the Lexus vs the Porsche and lower maintenance costs. Again, I’m a unique use case, but from the dealer that I have been working with, most people are looking for a reasonably fun, luxurious ride and are long term Lexus fans. Perhaps the same folks that wanted a GSF but didn’t pull the trigger at the time.
Enjoy the is500. Im

I test drove 2 GLC63S (1 SUV and 1 Coupe) and then felt like something was missing from the drive. (it didn't help that I just got out of my M2 to walk into the GLC test drive) I then test drove an X3M and immediately remembered what was missing; the driving engagement/fun to drive aspect. Although I do agree the X3M is on the firmer side, the GLC was the complete opposite and way too comfortable for it to be engaging, it felt disconnected from the road. I size down to 20" for winter setup here in Canada and it does help smooth out the stiffness a bit. Honestly at this price point there is nothing that drives like it in the segment other than the Stelvio Quadrifoglio but I heard too many reliability horrors with it to gamble with it. As always, great review !

Size down for summer as well tbh. Find a rim/tire size you're content with and keep the same dimensions but just swap winter/summer tires. It's an SUV not a gt3 RS... There is literally ZERO need for 21@s apart from cosmetically and quite honestly they impact the driving experience so are a negative overall.
I remember when iDrive first came out, and people just tore into it for needing way too many steps to get something done. But it sounds like being persistent in improving it over the years has paid off for BMW. (Lexus, you listening?)
Ditto, I-drive was the worst product in the market when it was created. To hear this praise now is amazing.
These things are 13 years old by now, dont think much have changed since then except cosmetics. So I dont know if I would call it news exactly.
I've had 4 versions of iDrive over the years. It has improved significantly in each rev, for the most part. I actually think iDrive 6 was the best of them, rather than iDrive 7 in my current car. It was VERY intuitive for use with the iDrive wheel. 7 was born with Touch Screen assumed, and some features are now a little awkward to use with just the wheel (which is easier to use while moving without taking your eyes off the road at all). Thankfully, the voice commands have improved and do work for most of the slightly awkward bits of the OS.
@@GoldenCroc Which "things" and how does one "thing?"
iDrive took a big step from CIC & onwards.
Early comment. For once. Just here to say keep up the great work you guys are among the best on UA-cam
i've had my 2021 x3 m comp for a couple months and i love it. performed great during the last snow storm with winter tires
Do you still like 2 years later? Is it as crazy as it looks to be? I know it’s shockingly livable every day, but does it truly impress in your experience?
@@TheLumberJacked yeah it's awesome but I actually just sold it to get a jeep
A "competition" suv. For when you need to compete for that parking space outside of Crate & Barrel.
🤣
Or a competition for who is the biggest douche in town.
Here in Central-Europe you barely see any decent human being in these cars.
Mostly wannabe thugs and i-am-a-wealthy-entrepreneur-look-at-me type of people.
Does it have automatic braking because I like to tailgate every person on the road.
Spot on!!!
Electric Hummer will win that battle , esp. a bulletproof one.
Great to finally see a professional review of the LCI! Looks like you guys thought the suspension was unchanged, some people are saying the LCI is improved, or that a software update improved things, could just be a placebo. At least our roads are smooth in FL. Glad to see you liked it, I placed an order for this same spec last week (not frozen)! Cheers

I live in Naples. All the complaints on the ride unfortunately make this baby a no-go for me. I do not find our roads to be smooth. The texture of them and NVH they cause is horrible.
Picked up my X3MC LCI last week. 100% agreed on "Most special bmws on the market & This is thing amazing". Thanks for making amazing vid
Great review guys! My wife drives one daily and I always grab the keys when it's not being used. As far as the ride comfort, the aftermarket solves this. We run MSS adjustable springs coupled with the stock active dampeners. The softer rates have improved the ride and my two kids haven't complained at all on roadtrips. Have serviced it twice at BMW dealerships and they haven't said anything about the adj springs or denied any claims (they replaced a whole headlight assembly because of led failure). I love this thing 🥳
you tell those kids if they complain you'll give them something to complain about

Half of the problem with ALL new cars and people complaining about harsh rides is the fact they have SUV's running on low(ish) profile tires and 21's. There just isn't enough cushioning between the last metal point of contact and the road. Best solution for an x3m? Go down to 20's and a 10mm wider tire front and rear along with a one size larger profile than stock so 255/40r21 to 265/45r20 for example. It makes all the difference, suits the car looking meaty and helps ride quality without ripping the OEM suspension out.
Personal opinion but low profiles on cars nowadays is fucking gaudy and pointless. It's nothing more than a vanity item as the majority of owners will never push their car enough ON TRACK to warrant rim/tire setups brands give you from the showroom. Bit of a rant lol.
Honestly most dealerships don’t care, bmw is the one that cares and they won’t single you out, unless you have a tune and you keep breaking parts then that’s when you gotta worry, we got modified cars with meth injection all the time and they’re still fine regarding warranty
Great video!! The full M version is amazing.
Comparatively The X3 M40i is just superb!
THE X3 M40i is the car I ended up purchasing over the more ridged ride of The X3 M which is absolutely phenomenal. It simply came down to which car “rides/drives” the very best as daily driver in fun full send beast-mode and as a regular daily driver. This is the best review for this car and it covers the one thing this car has yet to address *ride quality.
I’d love to see a side by side comparison review of the X3 M (non-competition) and the X3 M40i.
Lastly, the summer tires that these cars come equipped with are fantastic for “SUMMER” the same tires in the “All Season” variant the Yokohama AdvanSport / AS simply make this car a flat out joy to drive! Better stopping and takeoff when temps are below 45F as they are now!
QUESTION. What are the winter tires on the car as reviewed?
Thanks.
Goose, you called it the X5M competition at the start lol.
He corrected it with the screen font
He messed up 😂😂😂.
@@stevensbombsable or was it intentional? 🤣
oh nooo,,,, you should probably call the manager
Silly goose
Sorry did you just open saying X5M Competition???
Yup. At this point I don't know if he misspoke or if it's a jab at all BMWs being the same.
"you're not buying this as a sports car replacement" I bought an X4M Comp precisely because I could not get a Z or a Supra down my steep drive into the garage. So while an SUV suited me for towing jetskis, accessing an incredibly steep driveway and general coastal lifestyle I did have my heart set on traditional sports car so the performance & handling as well as the practicality were up there for me.
I just swapped my 21 BMW M2 competition for a 2022 X3M competition, and many people look at the price tag and think it's alot but when you look at the performance numbers this is like BMW mini trackhawk, it defies physics in so many ways. This thing can pretty much annihilate anything on the road in it's stock form, when you see what any srt product is currently going for, this is pretty much bang for your buck and way more upscale than those vehicles when you consider this to be at least $15-20k less in the current market , it becomes an enticing offering, once you drive sports cars and use to the ride that sports cars are supposed to have this honestly isn't as bad as advertised by some reviewers but some people don't understand what they are signing up for and think they will be gliding on Aladdin's carpet but I daily drive this and it is truly a joy to drive and this is a keeper in the long term
you sold a m2 for a x3? lol

Back when they first came out I test drove the X3 M40i and SQ5 back to back.. The X3 blew my mind as to how sharp and focused it was. The Audi on the other hand was like a fast mattress. So cozy and isolated. I walked away that day with the Audi as my pick because I loved the top notch ride and cabin isolation. The powertrain of the Audi was adequate but far from remarkable. The powertrain of the BMW was unforgettable, however. I've seen and heard so many comments about the bad ride in the X3m, I wouldn't be able to consider one on that alone. It sure is a mean machine, though! I wonder if the refreshed M40i is any improvement in ride comfort over the M.. So glad BMW is somewhat "back".. Another great review, boys!
I really don't get the sporty suvs, specially when they compromise on the suv advantages which are ride and space. Audi does them excellent because they are still very comfortable which is what people want on a daily suv, but it is plenty fast for when you want to race someone or just have fun. If you want a very sharp and focused vehicle, just get a car and not an suv.
@@evaristocorripio5434 only advantage an suv has is the clearance height which also allows for higher visual depth. Good for driving in heavy traffic with trucks blocking exit signs on the highway. Not so great at cutting lanes at high speeds. 1 slip u dead
It's been a while since Mark smiled while driving a BMW
As a previous 2020 X3M owner I had 2 main gripes. The ride (as you mentioned in the video). The powerband. Unless you were using launch control it was a total dud under 60mph. Useless for stop and go daily driving. Above 60 it had so much power I couldn’t even use it because I was in triple digits in no time. Traded for an M340i. Not as fast in the quarter but that single turbo spools so much faster than the twins that it’s much better in traffic. I also picked up a trackhawk. That satisfied my off the line throttle response and softer ride suv. Not as refined or pretty as the X3M but I enjoy driving it much more than I did the X3M.
Have put 7000 miles on my X3M Comp. Coming from GLC 43 and GLS 450. I decided on this over the Macan purely due to the raw fun it provided.
How did it compare with the GLC 43? Loved that car but I never but want to try this X3 m comp really badly. How would you compare it?
Great video guys, though I would add one note - an X3 has far, far more space than a Macan. I’m 6’2 and considered both those, a Stelvio (which I ended up getting), and a few others like the XC60 and SQ5. I could fit behind myself with room to spare in all of them with the Stelvio being tight, but the Macan was an entirely different level. If you ever have anyone in the backseat or use cargo capacity, the Macan is simply too small - smaller even than my GTI. That could be a deciding factor and I think was glossed over.

What made you decide for Alfa Romeo and not BMW?
Yes I totally agree. I have a first gen q5. I assumed the macan being closely related would be similar size. It's slightly smaller on the outside but somehow significantly smaller on the inside.
Agreed. I've been considering a Macan and that's part of my hesitation. I have an XC60 R design currently and the back seat is really nice! I wish it had some recline, but I rode half way cross-country back there and it was wonderful! The climate controls in the second row really help with overall comfort.
@@JavonAnonimni Got it back in 2019 and got $11k (yes, really) off a $55k Stelvio Ti Sport. So, price! But I wanted it because the 4 cylinder is considerably more powerful and (surprisingly, since bmw underrated) a lot quicker - I think the Stelvio traps at about 100 in the quarter vs 95 or so for the X3. Plus, I owned a 2017 340i and found the ZF 8 speed to be way too slow in comfort and over aggressive in sport and feared the same for the x3. I love the Alfa ZF tuning.
Lastly, just thought the Stelvio was cool. Is the interior as high quality? No, but the main touch points (steering wheel, sports seats, paddle shifters) were nicer IMO. It was also SIGNIFICANTLY more fun, way better steering and ride, and I have the performance package with adaptive dampers and the rear mechanical LSD, the former of which few x3’s have and the latter which no 4 cylinder x3’s have.
X3’s are kind of a mom car to me, and I found the Stelvio to be fun, unique, and have a lot of personality. I really recommend driving one if you haven’t!
Savagegeese starts with snow intro...
Me stuck in a literal snow storm in a state that almost never has snow.
Well, what can I say. I love your test drives and car reviews. For sure. Especially if it’s a BMW car.
Well done guys! Well done!
Thank you for capturing the engine tones so well!
I was honestly surprised with how much praise you gave this car. Definitely seems like quite the machine!
Awesome! My sister is about to buy an X3 because she has a newborn (currently has a 3-series).
I love the X3 it's just a fantastic little SUV!
May I ask why is it necessary to buy a SUV while the 3 series has plenty of space for a kid + has decent safety? Simply do not understand this false sense of safety what people feel in the SUV-s. Meanwhile everybody buys these shitcans and it is a nightmare to drive in town because of them.
Already bought my vehicle after countless views here, but their commentary and videography format keeps me coming back
Always find it interesting when youtubers still comment on capacitive touch buttons for favorites in BMWs. I have these in a very entry level E90 from 13+ years ago and never use them
X3M owner here. Totally disagree with the "its pretty small, it cant be a hauler" part. I've driven 5 full sized adults around in it, I've driven 2 adults and a 200 lb dresser. I've driven 5 adults, a grill, camping supplies and a giant cooler in the back. The idea that I can do this with a 500hp race car (that still gets 21 mpg when my wife's crosstrek gets 24mpg) is absolutely hilarious.
The other thing I might disagree with is the interior. My buddy picked me up in his Q5 the other week and my first thought was "WOW, this leather is way nicer than my car." Though it did seem like infotainment, etc wasnt as good, so I could see what you mean there.
Otherwise, great review!
Spot on with the bmw interior assessment. Everything just feels right ergonomically.
Is there a Stelvio Quadrifoglio review coming?
Been watching your vids for some time now. You guys are the best on YT - keep it up!
"other than the ride, I don't have much to bitch about. I'll see you next time"
One of the best outro's ever. 😂
These are much much better than the x3 from 10 years ago, but can't imagine buying one off lease with 18 months of warranty. Last I heard, BMW water pumps and thermostats were running $1600 and that was years ago. Those had been failing at around 60k miles. Combined with the xdrive gremlins, blower motor failures and $500 replacement batteries requiring dealer pairing with the car, and the impression is that even if you buy a cpo BMW, it's umbilical cord remains attached to the service department.
You are confused between the older electronic pumps and the newer mechanical pumps. Quite different.
Great little truck the new s58 engine is legendary
I own X3 m40i and its perfect as a family car with 2 kids. I have passive suspension and 20in staggered wheels so ride is stiff. Looking to upgrade to X3M probably next. The Macan is much smaller and rear seat is almost useless if you have kids with car seats.
How old are your kids? With the huge car seats they design now do the kids have leg room?
The quality of your videos is always consistently top rate.
So i just picked up a 22 X3M Comp in Marina Bay Blue in Mid December, over the month i have had it, its quickly become my favorite car i ever owned. It is fast, yet practical. It sounds good and looks even better. The ride while not like driving on a cloud is much better then the 20 and 21 versions. Its a good daily driver. The MPG could be better but its not the worst in its class of high performance SUVs. Love the car
You realise your car has an inline-6, not a V6 right?
you paid that much for a car and don't even know what type of engine in has...
it's inline 6 (i6) not v6
Agree with the review. It’s a very rough ride for a daily driver. I test drove it with the OEM run flats and the ride was very harsh and jarring in comfort mode. I’m sure it would be better shod with regular tires.
Another wonderful car review thanks guys
Awesome vid, just picked up the X4M, love it.
I love the real world driving conditions as part of the test.
This channel has gotten so great!!! keep it up guys

This is the most useful high powered SUV video I have come across. No one reviews cars for their performance in non ideal weather.
Thanks for showing us the snow we folks in Miami like looking at it!!

This looks really, really good. And I'm old enough to remember when every BMW in the lineup looked good.
These days, about 30% of BMW designs look like they're from Crazytown.
Awesome review! I really enjoyed this. I wish more people shared their opinion on this car 😁🙏🏻
Thanks for not using that jarring "bang" sound effect you normally use, after the soothing audio in the opening montage!
Hey dudes the reviews are always great but WHO makes your intro music? It’s ALL great. Just watched the 911 GTS and GTS cab vid, that intro music was great too. It’s all so good. Is there a playlist of it available?
Definitely deserve two thumbs up just for having the Lost Boys soundtrack pulled up on the infotainment… “I still believe” w/ that jacked saxophone dude! lol. such a great movie & such a great soundtrack! 👍👍
As soon as BMW has a 50% off sale - I'm getting one! ;o
As usual a superb video. Thank you guys.
I used to be such a BMW hater but they are indeed making some great products these days. Great engines, great transmissions and tuning, good interiors and infotainment and the reliability is much improved. Thanks for the quick look at the updated X3M Mark and Jack.
You guys undersubscribed, one of the best car channel on youtube.
The only criticism that I have about the channel is that you often miss out while talking about the purpose of SUVs..which is to haul luggage, pets, people etc. I hate trying to find other videos that highlight how practical or impractical the trunk/boot is for these SUVs. I have specific needs (large dog and kid) and need to know whether both would fit comfortably in a vehicle. Otherwise, you guys do a great job in keeping us entertained
What happened to the amazing music in your videos?
I just bought one in the same color exterior just different wheels and interior color. LOVE IT. Great video
How does this compare to F-pace SVR?
Fun fact: BMW has had the same hover feature on the radio favorites buttons since at least the mid 2000s with the e9x and e8x cars.
Great review, but seriously beautiful intro guys. Well done 👍👍
i have one, it is a great vehicle. i drove a 9114s and turbo s, it is absolutely comparable and 2 thirds cheaper, and you can do all the fun stuff with a washing machine in the back, worth every penny compared to anything else. harder ride does not bother me at all and welcome it to have such amazing handling on twisted roads, hit 200km like nothing and is extremely stable at high speeds....love it.
Great video! Such a cool car! That s58 is a piece of art!
I’m not a big fan of BMW, but I gotta admit, this is one the best performance SUV in the market today.

@@evaristocorripio5434 yes I know they are not true competitors but if you listen to the video he said bmw as a whole has the best interiors. I am just pointing out the interiors of Audi have gone downhill in terms of quality. The q3 and a3 were my examples. Also there is some cost cutting with the q5 interiors (the plastics on the Interior doors are too hard and the plastic below the hvac unit is pretty cheap.)
Thank you for this!! Great review as usual.
Great review, cant wait to pick mine up!
Rewatched the GV70 review recently, where you guys mention x3 in context of "who cares for that extra". I guess when money is not a factor, this is what you would get, although then you can basically get anything you want... I understand the engineering advantages and etc., but still I'm confused.
The GV70 is not a sports SUV. The Genesis brand is more focused on comfort. Compared to a regular old X3, the GV70 could be a much better deal for a comfortable and well equipped daily driver. But it won't deliver any thrills, like the M versions from BMW do. So really, it depends on what you want. Sports or comfort.
@@weedmastersr but that's the point - there's such a margin of people wanting sport sedans or coupes, and with SUVs - that's even less than that. At this price point - this is a very, very niche product, even with current SUV brain damage trend we are at right now.
IMO the Genny only competes with the top trim 4cyl X3. Even the M40i would annihilate it in every metric.
@@rosgoncharuk2403 you'd be surprised how many people want this.
You can still put it in 2WD mode for drifting correct?

Great video. I love it in blue. I reviewed both the X3M and the X5M last year. Crazy fast and crazy expensive. For $90k you will see a lot of depreciation, for that price i would choose a slightly used X5M over a new X3M. The X5M is more powerful and the engine/exhaust sounded so much better
Holy shit I’ve been searching for an X3M to replace my old Merc and the moment I come into UA-cam there’s a new Savagegeese video on it
That cool shortcut buttons feature that shows you what they do when you hover your finger on them is actually a long time(ish) BMW feature! My 2011 M3 had them, and im sure most other E9x cars (or at least LCI ones). Surprised me when I first discovered that they did that and thought it was really cool and well thought out by BMW. I used my shortcuts to turn off the iDrive hump screen and dark mode for the nav.
I have a love and hate relationship with the x3m because even though it has great performance, it’s very existence is preventing us in North America from getting a m3 station wagon 😢
Currently leasing a 2021 X3 M40…. When I’m the lease is up in a couple of years, I’ll lease a X3M, really like the X3.
Thanks for the great video. It really scared me there when you floored it on that slippery road 😳
That frozen blue looks incredible!
cool! what video camera?)
Is the M40i ride quality any softer for daily driving?
Yes
Great review ! Good job Savegeese
Thanks for the review, glad I ordered the new macan
It is a sad little jelly Bean ultimately.
Very well done guys!! Owned a macan turbo and went to a x4mcomp. Agree the porsche is so competent but that same competency makes it boring day to day. The x4mcomp rawness is so different than anything on the market and it's the only suv that gives me that experience that only Sports cars are usually only able to provide. Not to mention x4mc is in a different league when it comes to speed than a macan. Most important although you mention it's a bit harsh, you realize that there is a component of of people who specifically want that from an M car and especially a comp, very few of the other reviewers seem to understand that. That handling capability and its ability to communicate what the road surface is saying(through the seat, not so much steering) is what seperates it from the others.
Great video thanks!
Will you guys be doing the x4M comp?
