My best vehicle yet!
My 2009 BMW X3 was purchased from the dealership and I am it’s only owner. This suv drives great, no issues, regular maintenance and body upkeep. BMW’s have a reputation for being a great driving machine. When I drive another car, I could hardly stand it. The handling was off, acceleration, responsiveness, driving in bad weather, other cars cannot stand up to mine. What can I say? yes maintenance is pricey, but not impossible. I try and make sure my BMW X3 is in its best condition so that this driving experience will last.

A very good vehicle to drive. Good on gas mileage, and has decent power and acceleration. Manual shifting is fun to use. Interior has a sporty and luxurious taste. The leather seats have very good craftsmanship. The brakes tend to overheat in heavy driving and are a big problem. Oil leak issues occur to soon with regards to mileage.

I appreciate not buying a car every 5 years. This car has provided dependable, high performance over the years. Regular maintenance is the key to longevity.
