Yeah, the 30-60 performance is also good, but for my past experience this is where the M40i was in it's prime, 30-60 when the twin-turbos were already spooled up was neck-snappingly quick. The iX3 is close for sure.
The only place I've found the iX3 lacking is the 60-80 range. Not that it feels sluggish, but it definitely lacks the punch the M40i did when entering a motorway off the slip road.
