As far as suspension, my x3 had the standard suspenion as well--and I loved the ride quality. Some lean in corners but that's to be expected. Honestly, I think it rode a bit better than my current RRS. I think you'll be very happy with it.
Thank you for the insights!

Might want to watch this for 2 days and see what comes of it. Although, if I had to pick between a 4cl wagon and a 6 cyl x3, I'd probably take the x3.
I am tending to agree. There's a wagon in Charleston for about the same $$ as the X3, plus it has sport suspension. But I'm not sure about logistics these days and I wouldn't want to buy without a test drive.

The price on this 2017 X5 keeps dropping, too. But it's still a chunk more change: https://www.unitedbmw.com/inventory/...kr6c37h0u13020

And then there's this new Golf Alltrack, that probably could be had for $25k: https://www.stonemountainvw.com/inve...m17au6km522993
