The X3 M Competition is certainly a true M product; it shares little with the regular X3 when it comes to suspension and engine. It’s a tremendously fast SUV, too, and a die-hard M car fan might be willing to live with its rock-hard ride, but rivals such as the Mercedes-AMG GLC 63s manage to be more cosseting without skimping on fun. For most, the cheaper X3 M40i is plenty fast, and its softer suspension setup makes it much more liveable day-to-day.
