LAst week when I was on my ride and drive the dealer had an X1 under a sheet in the showroom. wouldn't confirm what it was or let me look, despite the fact that it was smaller than the X3 and brick shaped. What intrigued me was that I read elsewhere that the X1 would have the same engines in U.S. as the X3. Is that even remotely likely?

In Canada, where the X1 did launch a while ago already.... it only has the 28i inline 4 turbo engine.... I am pretty sure they won't bring the 35i here though.... =S....

I've heard the X1 will not be offered in the US with the 35i engine, which is unfortunate but an understandable decision on BMW's part.

I don't think BMW makes the X1 w/ 35i engine for any market. The top of the range X1 has always been the 28i.
