Congrats on your order. That spec must cost an arm and a leg in Norway!

There are already a few links to M Sport DSB in this thread but not sure on 18s or 19s. 2012/2011 is the same externally http://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=564466

Thanks, well not an arm or a leg, but I gave one of my kidneys
It's heavily taxed (40% of the price), and the total is equivalent to US$146.000,- (or 94.000,- quids)

That's about triple the US price... So if you think BMW's are expencive in US or UK? Jeez... Just think of us poor bastards in Norway. And of course the V8 supercars are even costlier. An X5 M is about US$434.000,- (277.000,- quids) over here. About the price of a small apartment in the city

I have spent hours searching for pictures, and some pictures in your link are the closest. There's one DSB that's really close but has black exteriour trim, not the alu ones. And it is the US setup.

OUCH! I thought it would be a lot and I wasn't wrong! You should post this on the thread where someone in Canada was complaining about the cost of their X3 and the limited options

Re. searching, this may not help you if you have already spent hours but try an advanced search on this forum with "deep sea blue" and set to return posts rather than threads.

I saw a DSB SE in person recently for the first time and it looked stunning - much better than in the photos. I think it was brand new or very clean!

We just got ours, it has black trim though since we don't have a choice with M Sport in the US, but it should look great with either. The color is very dynamic where it looks different in varying lighting conditions. Most of the photos of DSB, including my own, make it look dull blue, which it absolutely is not. Here is one photo that did not have us in it from delivery day, I hope to take more soon once I have some time.

Congrats. What a beauty

It's strange to see the difference in allowed combinations between Europe and US. At least in Norway we don't have any packages except M. Every option is avaliable individually.

And the range comes standard with Parkingsensors, Proffessional Radio/CD, 40-20-40 folding seats, Cruise Control w breaking, Low end hifi speakers, Heated front seats, el.windows, Auto start stop, Run flats, Climate control, fog lights, storage pack, Rain sensor and headlight washers.

This level of standard makes some of the options a bit cheaper than other markets, but then again the standard is a "bit" more expensive.

Great colour! If you can, do post more pics. I've ordered the same colour but have difficulties finding good examples online. My 30D M Sport arrives in Jan and have yet to see one!
