Hi:

Old X5 owner that sold it in 2007 and got R-350
Was in 'BMW hiatus' for 3 years and now back on board with a 2007 CPO X3 (prem pck, sport pck, heated seats, xenon, park sensors)

BTW, got great deal from Prestige BMW for very clean x3 (my neighbors thought it was brand new)

I was returning home (about 100 miles) with my new SAV fresh off the lot and about half way, a deer jumped in front of the car in front of me, that car hit it but deer continued to run and came in front of me; I swerved like I have never done before and I could not believe how well that sport pckg suspension handled my wild move, didn't even squeal and completely avoided hitting the deer.

I remember my old 98-528 and 2001-X5 handling very well, but this car is something else. So far I am loving the ride and no tranny issues that I can feel at all either.

Just one great sav!
