Now, Brian Harris BMW, the leading BMW dealer in Baton Rouge and New Orleans, Louisiana is happy to announce that the 2004-2007 BMW X3 has earned the recognition as the best used/preowned compact SUV by Autotropolis.com.

With its frugal engine, spacious interior cabin and overall fit and finish, the 2004-2007 BMW X3 fares far well than other pre-owned SUVs. Though it's small in size, the BMW X3 is actually larger inside and offers better leg room for both front and rear passengers than its big brother X5.
