"Lurching" acceleration off the line

I have had my X3 for about a week now and am still having an issue with acceleration. The trouble comes between 1-3k rpm. Once I get past 3k rpms the acceleration is smooth, controlled, and quick. However, when accelerating from a start the car barely moves when I lightly try to roll off the line. I have to keep pushing and pushing the pedal and before you know it the car lurches forward and accelerates to 3k+ rpms fast. I am not sure how to get off the line at a normal stoplight without looking like a complete jerk trying to race at every light.

Anyone else notice this or have suggestions?
