what type of alarm system is standard on the X3?

I'm wondering what type of alarm system comes standard on the X3 x28i. I don't see any option or package that adds anything in that regard.

My '09 328ix beeps when opened/closed, can anyone tell me if the new X3 does the same thing?

Cheers!

Re Beep, it's configurable. Not sure the exact sound, but through iDrive you can select whether the lights flash and whether it makes sound. I believe that was on both open and close, but not positive.

This is user-configurable in iDrive.

Incorrect. The X3 comes with a configurable BMW anti-theft system standard. At least it does for all US spec models.

In Canada, the alarm system comes standard on both cars. The manual says it responds to opening a door, the hood or the tailgate; movements in the system; changes in the vehicle tilt; and interruptions in battery voltage. The feature carries an asterisk so I think it may be optional in some countries.
