Be Getting 1!
 

Traded in my Mini CooperS!

I will be ordering a white with black interior 2.5 X3 sometime this week.
Any1 has pix of the combination? :)

Is there any things to take note of? "Problem"

Thanks!

Wow, that will be a change. The Mini Cooper is a handling machine, not that the X3 can't hold its own but the Mini is crazy.

You might want to go for the 3.0 X3. I only say this because the 2.5 X3 did so bad in the states, BMW pulled it after 2 years in and made the 3.0 standard.

Thanks Wagnes! Yes i know it a big different from the Mini but my second car is Z4 and having both 2 door car for the last 2 years, i just need something with a little more space.

What is the main reason BMW pull the 2.5 out of the U.S?

Sales I believe. I had a X3 3.0 as a loaner while my X5 was getting serviced and it was awsome. Go for it.

Main reason is because americans like big engines. I hear the 2.5 sells better than the 3.0 outside of the US.
Nothing wrong with the americans nor with the 2.5 engine. It's a very good engine. I got a X3 2.5 loaner once and couldn't feel the difference with my 3.0 while city driving.

Thanks guys! I am arranging for a test drive on the 3.0l tomorrow. Price different in my country is around US$15,000 for the 2.5 and 3.0l. Crazy pricing here!

Damn definately not worth an extra 15k just for the 3.0

Its relative..The X3 itself is probably around USD90,000....

I dont know you guys do it over there! :wow:

Congrats!

PML sucks! But with your Z4 and Mini, I'm sure you know them pretty well already!

IMO, X3 with 2.5 is more than enough for day to day use, including weekends to Sentosa or drive up north!

Good luck in your purchase!
