Thinking of buying the 2007 BMW X3?
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2007 BMW X3; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. The 2007 BMW X3 for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
What to check on the X3
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Owners filed 258 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, seats and power train; have those parts checked.
The numbers in plain words
Its powertrain is the 3.0L 6-cylinder with all-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.
The combined figure, 11.8 L/100 km, means roughly 35 litres for 300 km. Per 100 km, plan on roughly $20.65. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$4,100 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who rents the X3
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
What the X3 is like
Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.
A longer test drive
Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Rent the X3 for a week and see how it fits your life. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.
Which one to look for
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
What it costs to run
The EPA estimates US$4,100 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Over to you
Ask about renting first, and buy with a clear head.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2007 BMW X3 from us first.
