Time to Move on....
Hi All,
Just wanted to let you know I'll be parting ways with my E70 today. After 10+ years, a lot of blood, sweat and frustration at times, I'm moving on... I've always felt I would never part with my E70, except for an ///M, and I now have a new 2020 X3M BSM/Black It's been a ride for sure, it's going to a very good new home, and I'll miss it!! Thanks for all of the help and advice, John

Ride is just a bit stiffer than the 20" on the E70 (even with no RFTs) but better than my 22"... I have the ///M, not the Competition, it was WAY TOO HARSH.
Space inside is very similar.

I agree 100% as will any review you read, which is why I did the ///M not the Comp. I drove my E70 on 22s in Sport mode 100% of the time, but the X3MC is a completely different level of PAIN and SUFFERING. Driven dozens of X5Ms over the years, but never took the leap... the X3M is a good "little brother". If you like the X5M, want something $50k less, not as agressive, a VERY tiny bit smaller, and don't need ~600HP, it's a very good fit... try one.

95wildtt How is the build quality so far? Notice any issues? I'm curious as I work in Plant Spartanburg and it's always interesting to hear feedback directly from customers
