I really love the new style of the X3, it just looks a bit more tougher, with it's contours and grilled front. Now after having driven the X3 for a couple of days, I'm happy with my choice, I like the power in the 35i engine vs the Q5. So happy I went with the X3 over Q5 now.

I park next to an Audi Q5 every day, and it just looks smaller than the X3, maybe because the X3 looks more muscular. Its not a bad car, but to me performance comes first (unless the car is just horrible looking) and the Audi can't even compare to the X3 35i in any performance measure (handling, power/speed, MPG). Plus Audi never discounts their "hot selling" cars, at least in the US BMW will still give you some sort of deal.
