Archie, amazing match up. Probably the first time I am seeing these in a race. Learnt a thing or two about BMW, it's crazy how much more power these engines all make
You always have fantastic match ups, even though they aren't always direct competitors like this video, but for me this is something I wonder all the time is the upgrade "worth" it and how big of a jump is it really from one model/engine to the other. Always some great content 🙌 can't wait to see what's to come
X3 M40i owner here. B58 pulls faster of the line than S58 but then gets caught up. Always loved the X5 but the new screens there give me headache so opted for a 2018 X3 m40i as the X3M was too stiff for me. Zero regrets from my purchase. Except the seats maybe. Those in the X5 are unmatched. But so is the nimbleness of the X3 imho.
is this guy archie blind? he is literally pulling away and he's like " I cant get rid of him, OMG", I know he has to be dramatic for the video but cmon man, we can see it...
The power to weight ratios of the cars are nearly identical with the X5M just slightly higher. M cars are pretty much all the same pace within the categorys like saloon / suv. The X5s price is just for the space, bigger engine and class.
I'm pretty sure that the X5M was jumping the start. On the first drag from a launch the X5M looked like he jumped the start. The other 2 drags from a launch it looks just alright. On the first rolling race. 100% the X5M was starting ahead by at least a half car length. No doubt it. I really like the X5M. I'd take that over the X3M if I had the choice. I think his X5M is slacking somewhat. Probably doing to many launches or not running good oil. Cheap fuel. Those big rims. Something about it was off. I generally think the X5M is faster. Just not his. And he knew it. So he had to make it look like it was. That X3M is nice. I almost think I like the look and shape of it better. Maybe it's just the curvature of it. It's proportions are perfect. It's lighter and the engine is better balanced. The X3M needs to have the S63 stuffed under the hood. That would be incredible.
If the x3 had the s63 it would then be an X5. The X5 launch control could be letting the vehicle move off the line just a little faster, but without actually being there we'll never know.
I’ve had both, now in an M4 Convertible. The X3M shocked me. Doesn’t sound as good outside but inside that engine is delicious. It feels faster than the X5M day to day but of course it isn’t. But it’s more nimble and new they’re about £90k now new as no deals now
@@jordanlegard3764 nah the X5M definitely had really loud engine noises when flooring it, amazing sounds! First time I thought something had broken but it’s infectious. X3M the sounds at times sounded artificial. But now the M4, just had it’s run in service, pops and cackles so well and as it’s a convertible it’s natural.
I had a 2019 x3M Comp and have recent;y exchanged it for a Standard M5.... Can you put a standard M5 and M5 comp and M5 CS next to each other to see the difference?
My Boss just got the X3M Comp and it's a great car. The X5 comp is not worth double the price. Its just if you need a bit more room but at double the price the X3M comp is a no brained and you could tune it a bit.
Tried both, 2024 X3M and 2024 X5M, I found X3M to be more comfortable and more room for tall drivers. Bought almost fully loaded X3M for 40k USD less than X5M. I love it. It feels and drives much more like a car compared to X5M.
Did the same in 2020 brother. I wanted the x5m in the worst way but after driving the x3m and about 35k less I was blown away. With a simple tune and without risking reliability/replacing secondary parts you can increase the boost on the turbos and make it faster than a 5m or 6m. Great bang for your buck. I’m now at 42k miles and I loved every single one of em! God bless man, enjoy and drive safe!🤙🏼🤙🏼
You can’t tune or downpipe without a tune in the uk. All bmw ecu’s from miss 2020 are locked by bmw now. Only place to get a map is to send your ecu to Finland
I have the x4m, i added the racechip gts which they claim 611 hp with it. I did a quarter mile in 11.3 with draggy, and a 3.4 sec 0-60. Theyre wild. But your honestly paying for the v8 with the x5 and also the space and size. And the x4m is super harsh on the road so im assuming the x5 is more comfy. So i can see the price difference tbh.
Thoroughly enjoyed that race. I have a 2022 X3 30i that I think is really fast, but after watching this race I’m thinking about trading it in on a X3 m competition. Lol
its so funny how me and my friend where discussing this bmw 6cylinder but he was mentioning the car...video where there's the f30 m4 and a m5.....but the m4 beet the m5 on a drag....how does bmw do this? or even allow this???? but i must say it makes life so intersting eish.😍😍😍😍😍
whats wrong with an m40i ... sounds way better than the M, low end torque so better for city driving, much comfier, has a more reliable engine, and can be tuned with bolt ons to make well into 600whp reliably.
Surely you arent back AGAIN hating more, you are the guy that was calling the rsq8 video boring, surely your life isnt that bad to return again. Your life must be terrible, either that boring, or you are jealous of this guys channel, can only be one 🤦🏻♂️
I mean.......if the x3 was just as fast why would we buy the X5. Was nowhere close !! The BMW M engineers have their house in order and know what's being put out there.
I hope you enjoyed the Drag Race! WIN VIP F1 Tickets Here;

Would love to see these compared now with an MHD stage 1, 2 etc.
whoever driving x3m doesnt know how to race he keep letting x5m take off first on the dig races
I’d actually prefer to own the X3 m competition if I was in the position to buy either.
I'd buy the x3m comp and if it comes to the saloons I'd get the f90 m5 comp
Archie, amazing match up. Probably the first time I am seeing these in a race. Learnt a thing or two about BMW, it's crazy how much more power these engines all make
Can't deny the x5 looks absolutely on point 👌 nicely done Archie 👏
100% beautiful car!

It may look like that but its really really close considering the power difference

Been waiting for this particular race from a channel for a long time. X3M performance per dollar for an suv is unmatched.
Yes, been waiting for this.

@@donnie91 Thank you, brother. I am still 635 miles on the ODO.....break in period sucks.:)
Great race now l would like to see the X6M and X4M take on one another 😁😁😁
X5 is beats the X3 every day
Quote of the year " That thing is rapid!!"
Owner of an X3M here and I’ve nodded everything other than the engine…perhaps need to having seen this. Stage 1 with down pipe your 650bhp 🔥

Why not Jb4?
That X3 is a machine! It’s blistering and it’s making the X5 like a house on wheels. So slow. But so so cool.
X5 is much faster than X3 but i was talking about the X5 fully upgraded
'So slow'.... The X5 beat the X3 every race, admittedly not much!
The MSS suspension making the X5M bounce of the starting line…
Said this last year when I had mine, there monster's
I want to go to F1 but in my city Las Vegas but cheap tickets are well out of my budget
Over enthusiasm didn't hide the face the X3M got smoked standing and rolling start mate,
Thoroughly enjoyed that race. I have a 2022 X3 30i that I think is really fast, but after watching this race I’m thinking about trading it in on a X3 m competition. Lol
Same thing here. I have the X3 30i and although its really fast, its not enough. Looking for an X3 or X4 MC!
This dealership has a 21 x5M comp and a 23 x3M comp and they’re the same price seriously considering trading my mach1 in

Strange anough how those mods are still in place 😅
My only question is, which one can you fit 5 people in more comfortably, and which one sounds better? 🤔
Probably the x5m
More space and has a nice sounding v8
if archie didnt short shift it would be less closer, but still the x3 is a weapon for the money
Now do f90 m5 vs g80 m3 xdrive
X3 all day, i was behind a 2024 version the other day, in dark blue and it looked stunning with it's quad pipes
You know what they say about baby seats?
I am in the market for an X3M now, but they do not provide or allow a tow hitch. I may end up with an X3 M40i.....sadly.
whats wrong with an m40i ... sounds way better than the M, low end torque so better for city driving, much comfier, has a more reliable engine, and can be tuned with bolt ons to make well into 600whp reliably.
@@Mike-cz2yw I don't want one. I already bought a X3MC anyways and put the hitch on myself. S58>B58...and I also own a Supra.
Yes what a race very good 👍 👏 👌
what are you talking about gap not growing ? the m5 was always pulling
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏🏻, The X3MC is faster amazing!
I just want an x5m with the x3 rear 😩 i love the energy swords
Halo swords
Incredible m3
That fake laughter is worse shocking

The X5 M is big and heavy got the power 💪
Maybe the M3 Comp and the M340i next.
I got that b58 in my X3 after driving the m340i touring. Great car. Highly recommend that m340i
Say "that thing is rapid" again
Bro x5m vs urus🏁💯👌
If Rik Mayall did car vids!
The person calling the start always gets the jump. Just get someone else to do the start 🙄
X3M COMP VS RS3 8Y !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! COME ON
Keep the diff in 4WD (drag) not 4WD sport(race track) .
The X3's wheels look so much better than your chav wheels Archie
"That thing is RAPID!" Love it! 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
We all know x5m is faster but reaction time of the x3m was slow that could have helped big time
the x5m is definitely not faster. the x3mc is the fastest SUV bmw produces. The x3m40i is also faster than any non pure M spec suv bmw has
I mean.......if the x3 was just as fast why would we buy the X5. Was nowhere close !! The BMW M engineers have their house in order and know what's being put out there.
The difference is negligible though... for non racers... and again these are not racing cars...
I guess it goes down to size...
rs3 8y vs x3m comp make it happen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The x5 jumped in the second run...
I love X5m competition with all my heart❤
Get it to 700 bhp plus 😃😎
It's a good but on mute
Not sure about half the money comment? Isn't the X3 m about £92k?
With the ultimate pack and a discount
Dude in x3 is not a bmw racer
The gutter rash on your right rear wheel is horrendous 😂 that’d do my head in
The X5M is faster. Period
My ‘23 X3 M40i was $80K with tax in California 12/22/22 and there was only 3 things I didn’t get on it.
Rather x4 than the x3
How about the new M3 touring v Audi RS 6. 😎
لامكلعزلافتلافلاد
Correct me if I’m wrong but has that x3m got x3 m40i alloys on it🤮
Wrong they’re unique to the full fat M and are much larger than the m40i wheels. They look chunkier than the double spoke.
You can choose both options at spec
Not much larger, still both 21 inch the x3m is just a touch wider
The X5 is a 4WD while the X3 is a RWD. A fair comparison would be to turn off the front wheel drive on the X5
They are both awd
You can change from 4wd which puts more power to the front wheels and awd which puts more power to rear wheels. You set it up in your m settings.
@@markm5039 yes but they are both raving in 4wd which is what i meant. So it’s not like it’s not a fare race. Crappy x3m launch though
