Haven't taken the no-spare thing into much consideration. I rarely travel more than 2 hours out of my city, so I figure calling for help won't much of a problem. You can buy the tire sealant kit that comes with M cars just in case.

Will X3 do well for that, or should I think about getting other car?

Thanks in advnace!
It does just fine! Having the proper tires is the most important issue.

When you order chestnut leather, does it cover the back of the front seats or is it still the black colored lining?
It's the typical black plastic. I've noticed some cost cutting in this car...

Exactly my point. An option for those in the states, but not in Canada...the logic doesn't make sense.
