Before we pat each other on the backs, what other competition is in the small luxury crossover category? This is not a crowded segment (yet).

I lol'd when they indicate the Q3 as "one to watch". I was at the auto show today and the specs for the Q3 were 200hp, 8.2 seconds to 60 and a whopping 20/28 MPG. No amount of LEDs in the interior can make up for that dismal performance.

I think the X1's competitors are Buick Encore, Q3, and GLA. Not sure if the GLA was considered yet or not. |

I think it's funny....
(paraphrasing) Long term review: "Why would anyone want to buy this strange car instead of the 3-series wagon??" 2014 review: "Buy the X1 now because it's the last real BMW--the wagon doesn't offer quite as much driving satisfaction!" |

HAHA my thoughts exactly when I saw the thread title. The long term review had a much different tone than this one
