The only thing that we miss is the dual climate control and the REST button. On the plus side, the e46 electronics were/are less complicated so there should be less problems down the road.
My X3 was prewired for Sirius so I simply bought a BMW Sirius receiver, changed the wiring plugs on the head unit, and bought a subscription. No need for aftermarket Sirius.
There is not much of an aftermarket for the X3, but the big name tuners will make exhausts and springs for it. Nothing too dramatic though, and the push will be for the F25 for the future.

My X3 is prewired too, how much did the tuner run you? The stealership is saying anywhere from $800-$1000 to do this job, I think they just don't want to do it.
I'd likely buy the tuner and have a shop do the install.
