As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the BMW X3 and the BMW X5.
Convenience
With the BMW X5, you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the BMW X3, due to its tank size and fuel economy.
Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Clearly, the BMW X3 is a better financial choice over the BMW X5, when considering MSRP.
Dimensions
Since the BMW X3 is much slimmer than the BMW X5, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot.
The BMW X3 is slightly shorter than the BMW X5, which may make it easier to park.
Handling
The BMW X3 has a smaller turning radius than the BMW X5, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.
Performance

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the BMW X3 does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the BMW X5.
Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the BMW X3 and the BMW X5.
The BMW X3 has less cargo space than the BMW X5, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
