But thats your likes and so be it, doesnt impact my fun one bit, we all have our likes and u like fast trucks and i like sportscars. i would never call a durango anything or trackhawk lolz fun no matter how fast it is but i dont have to, i am glad u do thats why there are so many choices in the world.
But bacl to the OP, for a daily driver and especially for winter considerations, the X4MC cannot be beaten and it can surely kick its ass out with one press of a button if one so chooses.  |
The X3/4M just isn't fun. It's fast, but not fun. There's a difference. My M50i is also fast, but not fun. They're just very serious in how they drive.
I like sports cars too. X3M was no more sports car than X5 M50i, which is no more sports car than a Durango hellcat. Don't get me wrong, I liked X3M, it was my #3 pick. But the only SUV that drives like a fun sports car is the Stelvio (Admittedly, I did not drove a Levante or Grecale, but I suspect they aren't fun like Stelvio). The rest drive like perfectly capable, but also serious vehicles. They all are designed more with every day practicality in mind than making every drive fun.
Trust me, drive a Stelvio, you'll see what I mean. It drives like a go kart, with insanely fast steering, it loves to rev, and it makes every drive an event like a good sports car does.
