Wow, just wow. I just read this entire post and see both sides. Honestly the X1 and M3 are apples to oranges and if you guys are going to compare them then compare them stock VS stock AND with equal road and weather conditions. Done and done.
I am an owner of a turbo current generation X5 and E92 M3. It is night and day between the two. Not even in the same class.
So I can only imagine the current X1 VS E92 M3.
Thanks...
