Some questions regarding the new X3

Hey guys, I'm a little excited about this new car, I've been invited by my local dealer for the premiere on 21st but for now I want to ask you guys about some things.

I want to use X3 as my second/first car alongside 135i, I've been thinking of getting X5 LCI, but for the last few days I've began to change my mind.

Pros of getting X3:
New dash
New car
Start/Stop tech
Cheaper

X5:
More of a masculine car
The phenomenal 40d
LCI

So now I'm thinking about X3 with M-Sport package in Alpine White (yeah, nothing original here). For now we have only 2.0D and 3.5i engines available but I believe that the 35d will come along by Summer and this is what I should head forward to.

So a few questions that I have are:
— Do you think there will be BMW Performance parts available for this car?
— Should I actually go for X3 instead of X5?
— I will be driving in snow in winter quite a lot, will X3 handle well?

Thanks in advance guys! If you want, I can post some photos from the presentation after it's over.
