I am pretty sure that my turned in lease '04 x3 is still sitting at Flemington BMW, certified for sale for 29K. Black/Terracotta, premium, heated seats, extra tint on the windows, ipod, step. It was an awesome SAV, never one single problem with it. It makes me sad to see it sitting there for sale when I drive by knowing what a great vehicle it was. Ask Ryan (alpine6speed) if it's still there becaus ethis is one I KNOW for a fact is a good one.

My leased 04 X3 had a residual of 23K, and not a single problem in the 2.5 years I had it. Avoid the 2.5, go 3.0 and get one with the moon-roof, it's huge!

Awesome driving car, a little ugly compared to it's big brother the X5. Used to give all sorts or sports car a run for their money going up 17. X-drive is the Sh#t.
