Motorweek full review of X3
Breaking news (LOL) only 7 minutes into it (at least on Directv)
It looks like they gave them a green i30, which no one on the forum has polled with! They have both now. "M40i can be a bit loud and abrasive at times" They experienced a "disappointing" 23.5 mpg premium fuel average on the i30. It will probably show up on youtube today. If it doesn't a may try out my still-in-box hdmi capture device and post it myself.

The Motorweek 30i tester has the spare tire + raised floor. After putting my dog in yesterday for first time, convinced this is a non-issue, get the spare if you want it.

Can you fit two carry-on sized bags on top of each other (or on their sides) underneath the cargo cover? I'm on the fence about the spare. If I can't put two carry-on bags on their sides or stacked on their backs, it would make me think twice... -Hendoo in SoCal |

Just watched the X3 episode. I thought it was fair and the X3 looked great on TV.
