I love it. It really feels like a drivers car. The car handles amazing during spirited driving. I was lucky enough to get it with every option except the ski bag. I originally wanted the 135i, but the 135i, with the same options, was over 50K after tax. Other than an amazing driving experience, the comfort of the vehicle is amazing in it’s own right. The 2gen idrive is easy to use. You can also store all you music on the vehicles hard drive or use the idrive to access you ipod.
How do you like your X3? They hold their value. I got 22K for my 06 when I traded it in last year. Both of mine were very reliable.
