"Someones gonna crack that code and it´ll be a breakthrough" Well...BMW has already. If you had pulled the button the same way one more time the sunroof would have gone all the way back :-))
After seeing the review and test driving the car my self I can understand what Brian was saying about the car feeling 'disconnected'. I believe the feeling comes from the throttle tip-in problem on the BMW. The throttle is not linear with the throttle pedal movement. You get what feels like 85% of what your foot calls for. It's a lame fuel saving trick IMO.
World wide, sure, Blackberry is still popular. When I'm in South Africa it seems like the bulk of people walking around are carrying a Blackberry. But in NA, where this video (and I assume most of the audience) is based, Blackberry is floundering.
In my country is very expensive, because the goverment taxes are so high, i see the ticket in the page of BMW USA, this particular X3 3.5I starts in $41.000 US dollars, but here...the price is other, $103.000 US dollars..with taxes...so any car of BMW is expensive...and not and entry level car..!! if the prices are equal than the United States...any can buy a luxury car...here.
Awesome car but sadly, those motors are just horrid. High Pressure Pumps, Injectors, Coils, Turbos.. Sad because the power, handling, and utility of these are just unbeatable.

3:03 i think Brian Cooley was like '' You sure can't afford this car''

How much do they charge you each month for that 3G connection?

This is the way Reviews should be Great job CNET. I like the looks of the new X3 but they really need to quicken up that interface.
As always great review.

First viewer and commenter!
American labour: getting cheaper by the day.
nyak63RUS that phone you’re typing on was made in China, be grateful prick.
hahahahah!
Ehh the Q5 is still a nicer car in this segment
this is such a bad review lol
Why
The X3 is destined to be a ugly car. Not the grandieur of the X5 nor the sportiness of the X1.
