Its white and cute: it runs great.
No problems so far, has been working great. Anything wrong that happened was a result of user error. Except for the air conditioning, that had to be fixed a few times. Other than that I have no negative thoughts towards the vehicle. It's been great to use.

Great car for driving on snowy roads.
Pricy to fix. Problems with electronics. Headlights very expensive. Radio broke and the cost to reset antenna was 2500. Seats are kind of low and I have a problem seeing over the wheel. Car is very small inside. People cannot fit in it. Car is also very low to the ground. Front end is long and it is easy to hit things.

The only one BMW are the best and high quality vehicle you could ever have.
My vehicle is one of the best. Very strong, high quality and fast. My vehicle is very comfortable and really good. This is the vehicle you can't imagine how good and safe this is. You going to buy this more if you try it. This very high maintenance too. Its kinda pricey but still you get what you desire for this vehicle. It's awesome and a great deal to everyone.

Smooth, fast and sleek ride. I love it.
I purchased this BMW with only 75,000 miles. The interior is white leather it has a sunroof and a great stereo system. The vehicle drives really smooth. It can go from 0-60 in around 5 seconds. This vehicle is the smoothest riding vehicle I have ever purchased. I love this car.

I really liked the x3 I drove as a courtesy car when I had my 1997 318ti. I finally got my x3 and it is disappointing. It kept running rough and stalling. $4000 to fix it. Now the battery keeps draining for no obvious reason. Next car will be a Lexus!
2010 bmw x3 not reliable. It has too many hard to diagnose gremlins. Bring back the quality, design, and dependability of my 1997 318ti. I drove that car 14 years before it got unreliable.

BMW x3 2010, golden brown exterior and Caramel interior.
It breaks a lot and the maintenance is extremely expensive because it is a foreign car. I love the interior and the exterior of the car and how much space there is in the back seats. It is perfect for a family of five or below. I also like that in the back there's a cover so you can pull over your cold groceries.

It has a shiny black coating of paint.
Gets decent mileage for an SUV, good space(less than my old vehicle but still decent), it has not had any major issues yet. I haven't had to spend too much money in repairs or maintenance as of now, but I have only owned for 4 years. It is only at 67,000 miles as of now. I never let the gasoline meter go below 25 percent and keep relatively good care of it.
