The X1 is a blast to drive! Do yourself a favor and pay the extra for the V6. It accelerates faster than any sports cars I've been in, yet it doesn't guzzle gas like a V8 would. The all-wheel drive handles perfectly in the snow too. I live on a dirt road that always gets plowed last, but the X1...
Seriously, are there any vehicles that can compete with the appearance of the X1? There is nothing else like it on the market. I was originally looking at the X3, but I couldn't resist the X1. Plus, when you drive both, you find that the X1 is so much more agile. It is as fun to drive as it looks!...
