I think that the X3 in this configuration is really underestimated as a performance vehicle, it feels amazing with these options to drive. (Dynamic Handling Package, etc)

You do sit higher up and feel the weight a little bit more, but the for me has been much more fun to drive than my 335i.

Why so? Here are my reasons:

1.) 8 speed auto is super fast and exciting to drive
2.) N55 has a really cool burble and pop on the upshift than my N54 didn't
3.) Sport and Sport+ really sharpen the car up, and makes it more exciting than my 335i with sport suspension.
4.) Heads up display - makes me feel like a baby X5M!
Agreed on ALL counts!
