I think I have decided

first post,

After lurking through some of the great pictures many of you have posted of your F25s I think I am going to have to go with it for my next car.

First car was an 2007 X3 which was great, and I now have (until my lease goes up in May 2013) a 2010 335i xDrive M-Sport.

I thought I wanted an evoque, went and test drove it which was pretty good but not the quickest. Stopped by BMW afterwards to try out a 35i X3 and fell in love again with this now updated model of something different but familiar, great speed and handling.

Probably going to order a Carbon Black M-Sport 35i w/ chestnut brown interior and brushed aluminum like this beauty: http://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=552561

Thanks for all the photos!

Good choice - had mine for a couple of days and loving it! fun to drive and so far have not noticed any of the negative issues mentioned on this site (wind noice etc). Was affraid of carbon black as I was not a big black car colour fan, but have to say it is damn good - looks more like a dark blue (which I had on my ex 5 serries).

Should be a nice, easy color to keep clean in NYC I'd go with the Space Gray personally

Seriously, been happy with our little X3 28i...Great ED!

I'm a little north of the city so it is a little more manageable haha,
I have SB now on my 335i also had SB on my old X3, I can't imagine the CB being much different upkeep wise.
That SG does look pretty good though with M-Sport.

Just drive the 28 side by side with the 35. See if you can justify the price difference. You'll certainly be used to that thrust in your 335, but in the heavier X3 I feel the difference is nominal.

Good luck with your purchase. Just picked up ours yesterday, it's awesome.
