The X3 is better in terms of ride quality. The 3 is better with its handling. That’s essentially the main difference. Of course there’s space and practicality with the X3, but otherwise not too much to separate both. You do get the pano sunroof with the X3 which is not available with the 3 series. Also I see the new 2022 X3 has a bigger infotainment screen than the 3 series. 12.3” vs 10.25”.

Yup. You are correct. If you try to spec it with the Harman Kardon, it’s gonna add a significant delay as well. It’s just a bad time and dealers don’t have much in their lots.

Planning on getting the ‘22 X3 as a lease. Haven’t driven it yet, but I’ve driven older models and they’re v enjoyable

I have similar dilemma, but with x3 vs x3 m40i (looking at 2019 model year). Haven’t driven the m40i yet and wondering if it’s worth the money for increased power.

Oh ya it’s worth it. I have a 2021

Do you prefer a sedan or a wagon/crossover?

Alright auto fishes, I’m in the market for a entry level luxury car. Open to used or a lease. I don’t plan to use it as a daily driver, live in an HCOL. Only restriction is that I’d like to keep my monthly costs at no more than $600-$700/month (including insurance, financing / fees, etc; have a parking spot already). Doesn’t have to be a European badge. Thoughts?

Hi car 🐟

Been looking into 2019 Infiniti QX50, Lincoln MKC, Mazda CX-5, Chevy Equinox, and other similar compact to mid size SUVs but having hard time making the decision.

What are some affordable SUVs that i can buy with ~$25k budget? Hopefully it's post 2019 model and has good fuel economy and reliability (low maintenance cost). I'm less concerned on the mileage but wanting good horsepower (~250hp). Any suggestions? Thanks for your insights.
