I was so disappointed because it drove well, and fixed the biggest issue I had from the regular X3 (other than the dated interior) only to introduce a new issue. I'm sure the X3 M owners will disagree with me, but that suspension is a deal-breaker and just because the letter M is on the back of the car doesn't mean the ride should be harsh.

Honestly, when I drove it, this was the first thing that came to my mind

It was definitely harsh and I can normally deal with that, but this being my daily it would get tiring fast. Seat design looks amazing though and ALMOST make the interior passable but not at $100k Canadian. Couldn't do it...
