Unavailable here in the States. Canada may suffer from the same tow-bar restrictions, whatever they may be.

Congrats! Beautiful color. Did you spec your X3 to have the same tire set-up on all wheels or do all M-Sports come with non-staggered wheels?

All North American M-Sports (post April build) have non-staggered all season tires.

Agreed that staggered tire look good because they are fat when looking from behind and they add a little in car handling but I find this annoying on RWD because the rear tire were finished while the front where at 50%. I like to change tire brand/type everytime so because of that, I had to keep the same brand until getting a good timing where all the 4 tires are finished. Now with AWD, that might be less true but I doubt that all wheels will wear equally so having the same size will allow permutation and change the 4 tires at the same time. This is especially good for our long winter here

few more pics in normal and weird position

[Want the thrill]

Very nice. Love how in some pics it looks black, while in others you see the blue

[frankwin]

The blue is accentuated because of the flash (here an Nikon SB-800)!

It was a special order (400$) price of the seat itself (565$). Expensive yes but with two baby seat in the back this is the only solution to carry long things!

O.... I was wondering what the $400 special order is. BMW is ripping Canadians off with fitting better options and standard features in US spec cars !!

I asked if I could special order rear-view camera on my car in Canada (since it has to come with the premium package that i didn't option), and i couldnt too =(.

My car is exactly the same as yours too, except for the interior is red-brown leather and my roof rails are aluminum.

[frankwin]

yeah we are getting screwed up, we can not order by the piece many options so a few features have not made it to my car because I did not want to spend the 6300$ for the premium and exec pkg.

Back seat where standard before and in April it became special order Demo car had it and I assumed it was included until we agreed on a final price. Then a few days later they called back to mention it was not standard anymore.

Same here, didn't want to spend so much on packages. If premium package included leather seats, then I wouldn't mind, but I had to add leather a la carte for 1900$ -.-"... Not to mention adaptive headlights that are standard in the states... I also thought it was standard for the 40-20-40 seats as they are in an X1 as well.... Even though its not mandatory for me, it would be nice for versatility's sake...
