Although I do like the appearance of the X-Series (I used to own an X6M), I really think this design is even MORE attractive!
Great looking car! Wish we could get them in the US!

I love my X3 M40i but I'd get the M340i touring in a heartbeat if they brought it here to the US.

Saw an m340i last night across from me at a stoplight. Couldn't even tell it was a BMW anymore, simply due to the generic running lights now

I'll tell you what the new g chassis looks amazing as a long roof... I was skeptical of the camo spy shots, but hot damn that is a nice looking wagon... it really is a shame the US doesn't like wagons other than the handful of us enthusiasts who order them... if that was offered here I'd be thinking really hard about adding it to the garage... but I guess that means I just have to keep my e91 forever, I'm kinda okay with that too.

The F30 chassis had a wagon version in the diesel and 328i trims. Will bmw eventually bring the wagon to the US Or is it confirmed that wagon will not enter the US market at all.

“Animal Skin” if he is so eco conscious he should constrain his reviews to EV’s only
Anyway, about the car. Nice Touring - BMW get adventurous and produce a full on ///M version.

He seems to be a nice guy but I find him boring to watch.

The last F31 was poorly packaged and purposely priced at same level or higher than the US built X3 to keep would be buyers away. The F31 could only be had with a gas or diesel 2 Liter turbo engine, X Drive and no manual transmission option.

Interestingly, E91 values have shot up for specific optioned, 6MT cars. I'm sure the growing group of E91 M3 conversions have helped to hold or increase values also.

I always like the wagons but was turned off by the specs and the fact that backseats lost some legroom. I almost pulled the trigger on a F-series wagon but it only came with X-drive. Another thing, leasing is the sales strategy for BMW in the US and wagons really don't fit well into that model. Besides it's elevation which sells in significant numbers these days and our roadways are wide enough to accommodate. CUV, SAV, SUV's blah blah blah.
