I find this statement funny since the most accurate info about anything BMW, comes from these forums.

Here's my $.02....the X1 & X3 will compete in 2 different market segments and holding off the release of one to allow the other to gain market share does not make any sense. But hey, BMW has done lots of things that don't make sense, so who am I to argue?

As for me, I'll wait for the German made X1, which hopefully will have all the early production bugs worked out by the time it hits the US, than rush into a first off the line, US made X3.
