Thanks to everyone who has subscribed, liked & commented over the years. You have no idea how much it helps our channel grow!
You don't always include the prices of the cars in your description 😭
I have an ‘22 X3M comp. Enjoy every mile. I always hear people say how stiff the ride is but I don’t find that to be the case at all. If you’re considering I wouldn’t let that scare you away. It is exactly what I’d expect from an M car. Get a 1982 Cadillac if you want to float everywhere.
'21 X3MC here...love the ride, even on the stiff setting. The complaint of stiff ride is weird.
There are levels between the two you know...
😂😂😂 how would you say space is for family of 3 with 1 new born Me and my girl ? I’m thinking of that or m5 comp
@@tee2x965 You should be fine. I looked at the M5 as well and honestly the space inside is really the same. I have a bigger family than yours with a toddler and I’d say when we are all in it’s cozy and comfortable.
Blessed to own one of these beasts the article is spot on it’s an amazing machine love the firm ride but then again I’m 🇬🇧 and love my holidays in the 🇺🇸 but their hire cars suck ….
I'll take the X3M over the Macan every day
Facts like the only upside the guys mentioning is turns like realistically who's taking a macan or X3M To Nurburgring lolol lmao
There's just something about BMW's. I'd go for the X3MC anytime.
You crazy. Porsche is the better brand, better engineers, better build quality, more respected, and hold value better. Unless you are going on looks alone, then it should be Porsche every day of the week.

Always enjoyable and filled with tons of great information.🙏
Great review.. I just purchased a 2023 X3 M40i and I love it.. Not as powerful as the full on M but the power it delivers with the crackling sound never gets old. Thanks for the excellent review on the M!
The intros are the best I've ever seen. Cinematic magic haha. Keep it up!
I've been subbed for a while. Love the content. Just wanted to say that. Keep up the great work!
X3M is larger and you can put a mountain bike in the back with the wheel still on it with the seats down. My BMW dealer gave me an X4M Competition as a loaner. I loved it and maybe it’s because I’m old (44), I didn’t think it was particularly stiff. Some of the cars I drove as a kid were buckets of bolts.
Great review!
Hi Mike, love this and all of your other videos, especially at the moment whilst I have vision issues. You are doing and living my dream, much appreciated and great content and videography!
Many thanks Bob and Rosette Rogers, Roberts Creek BC
Awww nice to hear!!
Mike, when Porsche updates their Macan next year and puts all the same seat belts, you can take credit! I love your insights and comparisons! We appreciate you!
Thanks for the video brilliant ive have a x3m comp on order comes in june cant wait man thanks again
How’s it going?
My neighbor has a similarly spec'd X3m in that amazing army green color, except he has the yellow headlights and some other parts of the grill blacked out and its one of the nicest specs ive ever seen on an x3m and its one of the few cars that ive seen with those yellow headlights where it actually looks good and actively makes the car look nicer.
Great vid. Subbed. Got a 2022 X3M Comp in the Marina Bay Blue a few months back and I LOVE IT!!! My dealer told me the wireless phone charging trays have been deleted to save on the microchips, due to the global shortage.
Got a 2023 X3 M40 . Amazing car . Wouldn’t change it for anything. It’s a beats . Can’t imagine the M Competition. Great review btw .
Liked and subscribed.
One of the spots in the back storage area was for storing the cargo cover.
the music you use in the intro is fire!
I have this car, love it, carrys the large dogs and still beats pithy mercs and audis anywhere. Tuned takes these to a whole new level as well.
BMW M IS JUST MONSTEROUS IN ANY FORM FROM THE 'M' LITE TO THE FULL M. JUST MIND BLOWING 👌👌👌
The area you referred to as the wireless charging is actually used as a location to set the other “keys” for the vehicle (phone or card key) in order for them to be recognized. Not all are equipped with wireless charging. I made this mistake on my 4 series
Dope vid. Picked the comp every single time. The macan is tiny. This thing is a nuclear animal at all times. Probably it’s love hate relationship lol but they did a great job at getting the lci dialed in properly.
Pound for pound $$€€ and what I examined/asked as my X3M was getting Expelled wrapped at the same time as a GTS; BMW M definitely is top 🔝
I would pay the extra 10k for the Macan GTS, I want the more comfortable ride. (Not that I can afford either)
Great overview.
The little gully in the back, under the lid is for the cargo cover when it's removed from the cargo area.
had a porsche macan gts - looking at this next this review is helpful
Thats station wagon shoulder uptick bodyline/window line kills it for me !
definitely picking this one!!!!
Great video! I just placed an order for one in Marina Bay Blue. I decided against the comp pkg so that I could get the 20"s for a slightly smoother ride. I've had bad experiences with 21" wheels on the crappy roads that I daily drive. Also that "Umbrella holder" in the floor of the trunk is actually to store the retractable cargo cover in case you put down all the rear seats and want the cargo cover bar out of the way. My current X3 M40i has the same. Will also add that I had a Macan S before the M40i and although the Macan S was a great driver it lacked a lot of utility that the X3 offers.
Are you ceiling Hex lights RGB or just plain White? Because being able to use hues to emphasize or deemphasize aspects of the video will look cool. Just the ceilings. No additional side wall lights and all that visual noise.
Bimmer will always hold a special place in my heart. Always
I have a 2018 x3 m40i and a 2022 x3m comp. I love them both. The only Porsche I would think about getting is a gt3 rs 😅.
I recently sold my BMW 320i, I bought about 5 years ago. Not working and starting a company and looking forward to get a New BMW. I was thinking a 2022 or 23 M4, but this SUV is killer. Curious as to how many units were made? I see you do a lot of video reviews is this vehicle price a USA price? I love the the attitude man thanks so much for the information on this Uber nice beast!
Just ordered mine 2024 x3 m competition lol can wait 1 more month!! And I subbed as well
Same! Just ordered mine today
@@shoedude627 your going to love it!!
Would love 2018 M2 and 440i videos! Some videos for us buying used cars 🥹
Omg!! That takeoff!! Wow
This is pretty much an suv version of the m3 which I love, In snowy places it’s tough to drive a car so if you want an m3 but live somewhere snowy, this is a good substitute
Watched only picture of video. Nice crocodile color. Good wheels, mixture of 666 and spider. Anyways, G X3 is best looking. Not boring BMW in 2022. Looking forward for more.
I would go for the X3MC. It looks better and is more practical. Stiff suspension rarely bothers me since I daily sports cars...it just reminds you that you're in something special.
Lmao just found this channel and the enthusiasm got me vibing already!!
"Sicccckk....Siccckkk....Siccccckk" lol
Great vid bro, big up us Canadians
Of the two I would go Porsche. However I would personally choose the Stelvio Quad over either of these.
OK, I'm going to ask the obvious question.....why isn't the corn cut? Although "top heavy and super stiff" I kinda like this, and I'm not a BMW person. I love the color and I've already emailed Michelin to sponsor you. 😎
Ghost voices by Virtual Self at 0:17 😌😌😌 nice added touch
that color combo inside and out is bar none
That color is bussin’
Great review! Also how much coffee do you drink?
None! Imagine if I did. Would not be watchable!
We’re loving our ‘22 X3 M40i, and it’s stiff enough as is. I’d hate the ride in this I suspect, though that color is 🔥🔥🔥!
Enjoy the m40, went M from one and regretted it.
Keeping in mind that it still is an SUV Is a factory hitch available on the X3m? It doesn’t specify on BMW site nor is there a max tow weight.
I had the X3 M40i, great car, just upgraded to a 2023 Mercedes C43, waiting delivery at the end of the month!!!
Let us know which one you like more, I didn’t like GLC, felt much less space in driver seat
I just ordered the x3mc today in carbon black. I couldn't decide to get the regular x3m or the x3mc. I didnt get the drive pro package or whatever and saved 1700 that brought the difference between a x3m with executive and pro drive package and the x3mc with exdcutive and no pro drive to about 2500 dollard difference
So I was debating this for a while. Ultimately ended up with the 2023 X3M Comp. I LOVE Porsche. But at this price point and it being daily driver SUV, I want the creature comforts like heads up display, digital gauge cluster, ambient lighting, and more space. Porsche doesn't offer that in the GTS and it's still more money, and the rear seats in the Macan are laughable and not good for any road trips or 6' people. I would forego all the creature comfort stuff I just said if we were talking about a 911 which is an incredible beast, but we're not. This is a daily driver comparison and you won't take it on twisty roads most of the time. Just my two cents.
This is exactly what I'm thinking right now; however, I went the other way and bought the Macan, and now I'm regretting it : (
@@WillFrankling Man I just want to say I absolutely LOVE LOVE my X3M. It has everything I would need in a daily. And yes it’s stiff but that’s just the price you pay for having an SUV handle and keep up with sedans and sports cars. Plus it is totally fine for road trips and stuff. Done plenty already. Hit me up if you have any more questions
@@krishpatel3694 Thanks, dude. I completely agree and have always had stiff cars, so that's not an issue; not to say the Macan isn't stiff. I think that now having the Macan and living with it, it's just not as techy as I'd have liked, and the X3m has loads of cool features.
@@WillFrankling yes those were my thoughts exactly. And the GTS is just a bit more expensive than the X3M with less power and less features it just didnt make sense to me. The X3M has any tech feature I could want personally. Highly customizable Heads up display, carplay, heated/cooled seats, panoramic sunroof, idrive 7 (better than 8 imo), digital dash, etc. Very happy with it and it looks aggressive.
@@krishpatel3694 I think you've just hit the nail on the head for me as these are now my exact thoughts, thanks for your thoughts.
New X1 is killer.. Hover crafts coming soon!
What is this color and how do you get it? BMW USA doesn't list it.
I have an X3 M40i and absolutely love it. X3 M competition's suspension was just too much for me and I prefer the torque at lower RPM's on the B58 as well. Still X3M is a sick car, can'y go wrong with it.
Right call. Went m40i>M>GTS. M40i cheaper price, maintenance, better daily power delivery as mentioned. More than enough.
I now put a stage 2 tune on it, just cause I was curious what that extra *oomph* would feel like but most of the time I drive it in eco pro, as it's actually my dog's car. I'm just lucky enough to be his driver from time to time.. @@s2000killa1
I really like your reviews. Why don't you review Alfaromeo Stelvio Veloce? 2022/2023
Awesome performance for the price. I’ve heard this is one of the hardest riding vehicles on sale though, that would be a deal breaker. No reason for a family suv to ride like a GT3RS
Just picked up its little brother…X3 M40i, and it’s stiff enough as is. I’d hate to think how harsh this is.
I have one and its really not as bad as people say*
Running staggered 265/40/21 295/35/21.
On my "winter" set of AS4+ and it drives fine for me and the people in the back. I wouldnt let that hold you back.
@@DHIZZYJ fair enough, I had a 2010 rdx back in the day and one of the reasons I traded it in was harsh ride. But I would definitely have to drive an X3m before I bought one. My parents actually both own Bmw’s with “M sport packages” on them and they both ride fine. I’ve just heard this new gen X3 rides especially harsh…
@@jakes5530 They did a much better job on the lci version at soften the suspension. Also, with the p4s, lower psi, and 20 inch wheels will make it night and day. If you get a chance I highly recommend go test one out and see.
@@DHIZZYJ where do you live if you don’t mind? I want a winter set for mine here in Ottawa and I don’t know which set up to go for. Was originally thinking of going 265 all around Michelin alpin PA5
Awsome 🤩
First video I have watched from you and already liked after you sick intro.
Thanks we appreciate it!
I love BMW's new design language. Very beautiful yet sinister.
Love this car
I would go for the Porsche, I like the styling better and I feel you don’t see as many Porsches around as you do BMW.
Sick color
I’m stuck between both as he listed. I don’t have any kids or wife yet, so I don’t see the back seat being used often as it’s a bit less room vs
x3 m. All my friends and family have their own cars also.🤣 In terms of raw power, I am not an aggressive driver nor do I think I will ever need that much horsepower in regards to the competition level. Suggestions anyone? Price isn’t the problem but what’s more practical?
I’m trying to decide between the the Macan GTS and x3m the problem is you can’t walk into a Porsche dealer and buy a GTS, they don’t have them so I’m leaning towards the X3M. I’d love to know if anyone else has had this experience. I live in the Bay Area Ca. It just doesn’t make sense
5:46 the F30 had the same bracing visible
Its not for an umbrella, its for the boot cover if you need to remove it.
I have a 22 X3 M40i and absolutely love it! Very balanced…
The trick with these M cars is to ditch the Run-Flats ASAP, because they’re absolutely terrible. Makes a huge improvement with ride quality.
Doesn anyone know,what is the official name of this individual colour?
Hi
Can you review bmw x4 n x6. Please
Has an actual handle for the transmission - sold
I’d get the Bmw X3M comp, it’s more fun to me, it gets sideways, it’s raw. The Porsche Macan is too refine, too perfect for me lol.
7:45 I just see an X-Ray of a tooth. 🦷 This thing is beautiful and love the performance, but not something I would keep for more than 2 years.
It´s very good for that what it is.
Urban green is the best color !!!
Your son needs to do all the intros bring him back!
Master Chief...is that you?!🤣🤣🤣
Owned both, had 2 GTS (22/23) both great cars, but the chassis and suspension setup on the GTS is borderline witchcraft. Incredibly compliant in normal road, all down to the fact it has Porsches air suspension. Stick air on the X3M, which is what they should of done, I know which one I’d be choosing. GTS FTW
I’ve owned both as well. Old lady totaled my 2019 GTS and I was heartbroken. When I went to order another and I was facing a $121k vs $83k for the X3MC it became an easy choice. The Porsche suspension is BOUNDS better, but otherwise I’m very happy with the purchase and with the excess insurance payout I’ve ordered a Boxster Spyder.
SUVs that perform like sports cars and sedans. This is why SUVs are taking over. 🙂
pls get ur hands on that m2
How do you get that color?! it's not in the configurator 🥺
It’s called Urban Green. Paint to Sample colour.
were you just hopping a little bit?
Macan GTS is underpowered now that the Turbo variant is gone... My tuned X3M40 makes the same power as the top shelf Macan for so much less money. Bring the Turbo back and then we'll talk X3M vs Macan
i wish some1 here could map it instead of the ecu going to finland
“Umbrella holder” is actually to hold tonneau cover
I’m not as quick (barely) but still I’ll keep my GTS Macan over this.
Macan is my choice. I had the x3 and regretted every moment of the 3 years that o owned it. My new Macan is awesome and the feel of driving is just amazing g
Ah I remember that thing vanishing in my rear view mirror...
This is how BMW stands for
It's been a while that I've subbed to your channel and love the content you create, but I'd like to suggest you that It's the time for you to start making drag races videos as well with the cars that have the same specs, As the @Carwow guy does...
Thanks Mohammed, we appreciate it.
There’s a lot that goes into drag races - track costs, availability (not possible in the winter here), Canadian media/press cars aren’t allowed on race tracks so we rely solely on personal vehicles.
We’d like to get back into it, hopefully next spring.
@@ACCELER8TV
Oh i see, Until then keep these review vids coming... and best of luck for the spring...
Bring us the wagon ffs!!!
Is this vehicle wrapped? What is the color called?
It was a custom paint colour, not wrapped, but can't quite remember what they called it.
Actually, found it. URBAN GREEN.
6:18 - No. There are no 17 different M's. There are a lot of M-powered cars; I, too, have an X5 M50d - which is not an M. You actually can differentiate them by the manufacturer's code in the car's documents. BMW (and all M powered) cars are "0005" while all true M cars are "7909". That being said, there are currently the following true M's:
M2, M3, M4, M5, M8, X3M, X4M, X5M, X6M, XM.
Back lights are known as Pincers (lobster claws)
Definitely this. Because your other car is going to be a Cayman, and you don't want two Porsches in the same garage.
5:12 😭😭😭
Can you really afford to keep us waiting in Öhringen Germany???Oh Lord of Mercy
Test drive, anyone? BMW? Grötzinger Öhringen?????😁
Damn, you're rough!!
BMW is absolutely killing it. Their new design language is basically saying, F**** Y****, I'm here to pillage, plunder and eviscerate my competition.
Porsche Macan GTS or BMW X3M Competition?
Porsche Macan GTS
X3M competition nice review keep up the good work
Porsche if it’s a 22 or greater. The buttons down the gear shifter drive me crazy on the older ones.
I understand the Porsche would be favored based on ride quality alone.
Definitely X3 M
2 weeks ago ordered a X3 30i - Brooklyn Grey with 21" rims 🎉
