Wow, that looks great. The colour shows of really well under the lights.

Usually I find the Msport looks under-wheeled compared to the SE but this looks OK with those 19" rims. I think I have found the X3 I want

Those are 20"

Don't even think about ordering the M-sport with 18". Won't work sadly!

Nice car, bad resale value for x 3 30d in Europe as it is pricey (20d sells much better and looses less value over the years). The difference in price in Austria is like €12,000 over a 20d model. Dealer confirmed a x3 35d coming in Oct 2011 (with 306 PS).

One thing that bugs me about the new X3 is the kidney grills are rather bulbous with soft edges, whereas the new lights are sharper/more creased. They either need to sharpen the kidneys or soften up the lights.

There is a good balance on other new models from BMW, but not on the X3.

I am having second thoughts about my x3 3.5i on order. What I really want is the X3 3.0d or X3 3.5d + M Sports package

These pictures reconfirm yet again about my decision to go M-sport with the 20" alloys.

It was rather expensive and inconvenient to get the 20", due to M-Sport 19" can only be fitted with summer tires from factory, which means I have to pay my dealer to strip the summers tires off from the 19" (more or less throw them away) and replace with winter tires.

All in all the 20" summer / 19" winter combo cost me the equivalent of Hifi Professional + electric seats + sunroof + head up display. Geezus!

But this look is just too damn good to pass.

Thats a ton of cash just to have BMW wheels. I will just keep the summer 19s and buy some winter wheels and tires from a local tire shop for around $1400 installed, they will also change them out for free twice a year for me, seems a lot cheaper of an option and they have some really nice wheels (my winter ones on my C63 look similar to the stock wheels, only cost $150 each)

I think if you read it, it is describing the X3 35D and comparing it to the engine from the X5 40D.

Deep Sea Blue has to be my favorite color. Would love a MSport. Not sure that wife would agree, but sure gives a complete look.
