2008 BMW X3 consumer reviews

I am 1st owner in my 2008 bmw x3 , I have 110,XXX. This car has been so reliable that I will not get rid of it, I mean why? Besides Wear n tear, ive replaced the alternator and coolant. The key is to buy the bmw brand and a mechanic who knows how to work on it. Before this car I had a 94' 318i in 1998-2007 that finally gave out at 220,xxx. Had I known the mechanic I have now, probably would've lasted longer.

Great SUV but like all BMWs the plastic cooling system is very poor design. I'm pushing 200k on mine and that's the only complaint I really have. It's a fun vehicle

Great car! If you appreciate engine technology, you will like the power coming out of the relatively small engine. How about 26 miles / gallon? That's what I am getting! Beautiful inside and out! Comfortable, safe feeling. However, even with warranty, service can be costly. The GPS is not great and my model misses some features, like adaptive cruise control, lane sensor, etc. that other much cheaper cars have. I would still buy another X3.

Constant cooling system issues due to failure of plastic components. 3 expansion tanks in 1 year. 1 radiator. 1 electric fan . All hoses in the same year. These cars are designed to self destruct. They will eat you financially, even if you an ex BMW tech doing the work yourself.

2008 X3 drives like a sports car, hauls like an SUV. The body styling in this model year is one of the best. After 12 years it is still fun to drive.

Love this car this is my 3rd X3. Great driving experience, fun to drive. Find a used one with lower miles and your golden. My other two an 06 and an 04 are both still on the road. They aren't cheap to fix but the 2.5 and 3.0 litre engines are bulletproof. Be prepared for oil leaks and coils to be an issue. Like my mechanic says you pay for the German driving experience. It's a pretty good experience. I get about 22 miles to the gallon.

This car is very comfortable, great for a family, can be packed full when necessary by putting back seats down and Has a very solid feel. Looks great and is the BMW I always wanted to own.

It has a lot of features for have comfort. It's is strong and safe. Nice shape and it is comfortable even its size. Enjoy driving it. Not big troubles so far.

The car is perfect... It drives great, the interior is beautiful and it looks great. We couldn't be happier with our purchase and the excellent customer service.

This BMW X3 has excellent performance, and you can feel the power in the car when driving. In particular, the car is great on the highway / interstate and has a sound system second to none.
