Purchased my BMW X3 new in June of 2013 and I am very pleased on how it has performed. Great Handling great acceleration and very good on gas for the size. My car just turned 85000 kilometres and only a lightbulb needed to be replaced as well as the spark plugs. A lot of good tech in the car GPS with traffic updates, bluetooth and BMW apps. The only thing I am not pleased with is that it does not have a back-up camera. only sonar sensors front and rear. For the price of the car it should be standard. Also has All in all great SUV for Canadian families and AMAZING SNOW CAPABILITIES also!! would purchase again !!
