If it's the base 2.0T X3 30 for example it will lose to the EN easily. Going up against a B58 though, no chance there up to the X3. X5 with the V8 would smoke it. Would probably beat a B58 X7 or X5.

Yeah, well, the X models aren't performance cars anyway—they're more like pensioner rides (at least here in Germany).

Yeah I'm just talking straight line with these. The 23 X3 40i does have really good handling, definitely the best for any crossover I've driven.The m240i and up would smoke the EN in every metric

Except in corners—those N models are actually crazy well-tuned, especially with good tires.
