Here are some more shots of the car including interior shots of instrument cluster, the Navigation with split screen and BMW Widget, the center console, the leather seats, the driver side door panel, the front 180 panoramic view camera, the 360 camera view, and the HUD (The picture doesn't do it justice but it's very clear in person)

I'm a huge fan of the brushed aluminum. If my salesperson was a little sharper I'd have that on my whip now.

Any thoughts (sorry OP)?
I would think the black will hide those huge air intakes more than silver. This reminds of the ugly Acura grilles where people would buy Acuras with colors that hides the grille.

OP- congrats and thanks for the hi-res pics, they're always appreciated.

Thanks for posting!!

How do you access/activate the "widget"? I'm assuming that's what shows the weather forecast in one of your pics?

Thanks!

What is that "sync" button next to the A/C and auto/manual button? I don't have that on my 2014 X3 35i

Hi Bentyyc,

you will need to have "ConnectedDrive Services Business w/ARTTI" package and then get to the map screen and the push your iDrive wheel to the right and you will have the option to select split screen display and then be able to choose the content of your split screen. One of the content choice is "BMW widget" and you can customize what to display within that widget, I chose the time clock and weather forecast"

Let me know if you can find it.

Congrats!!!! Glad to see another X3 with the brushed Al as well - it's what we got and can't wait to see it in person when we get ours. Looks great!

I've seen both colours at two different dealers, I have to say the carbon black stood out for me, looked much more shaper.
