I really like our X3. They slushbox is my least favorite, but either it has adapted to me or I've adapted to it. The engine is fantastic, and the rest is good compared to other SUV's in it's class.
I think that's the rub, compare it to similarly sized AWD wagons and SUV's and it really shines, compare it to a car and it has flaws. The usefulness is worth the trade off in my book. The X3 seems nearly twice as useful in daily life than the 330i. If you're never hauling people and dogs, or dogs plus a bunch of presents, or bulky items, then the usefulness may not be worth the driving penalty.
If they bring out diesel version I may be very tempted.
