do you have the sport plus setting?

Yes, we have a Sport + setting. It goes from:

Eco Pro > Comfort (Normal) > Sport > Sport +

I/we find the ride fine on 19" wheels, but I also drive a MINI Countryman with 19" Runflats, so I actually find this "luxurious"...

I honestly do not feel a change in suspension. Perhaps others with a 2015 xLine can comment as well...?

On my M-sport with 20" wheels I do find a difference in the suspension when going to sport, however, it is subtle. The biggest difference is the engine truly comes alive.

I have not tried sport +.

Beautiful X3 indeed! We're getting ours in 2 weeks and have a somewhat similar spec, except our is white on oyster. I wanted to ask, how do you like the HK stereo? I bet it must crank up pretty well with 600 watts, my 135 has the HK and with only 300 watts i like it a lot, so i can imagine it's gotta be fantastic with more space and more wattage. Can't wait to get ours!

Honestly was quite unaware of the wattage for the HK system. All I know is that it sounds really good (at least to our ears). I find what complements the stereo more is how quiet the vehicle is overall. While you can crank the volume, you don't have to as ambient noise seems very low...

Planning an order with the same brown/mocha combo but leaning towards the lighter wood as I have always liked it.

How do you feel about the anthracite? Would you get it again or choose a different trim?

If you don't have dynamic handle package (DHP), the things that change are the steering stiffness, the throttle response, and the transmission shifting.

If you have DHP, in addition to those mentioned above, the suspension will stiffen up and the steering ratio will change.

The only thing Sport+ do that is different than Sport is that Sport+ turn off the traction control.
