X3 35i -- Production week of 24 Jan

Nahoa · 02-04-2011, 09:40 PM

I expect you'll enjoy that car. I was totally blown away by my first BMW (which was also my first new car). I suppose the Ferraris and the like out there are even better, but I continue to be thrilled with the performance and comfort of these cars. Hope you are, too!

fedinand · 02-04-2011, 09:42 PM

I even enjoyed the crappy pic

I'm loving those wheels!

sfax · 02-05-2011, 01:14 AM

Looks awesome. Congratulations. I think you only get album artwork with a USB connection and a snap-in media adapter but confused by the whole setup to be honest

sfax · 02-05-2011, 01:15 AM

Oh, and more pictures, blurry or otherwise, would be great!

Nahoa · 02-05-2011, 06:24 PM

Some photos on a grey, rainy day!!

Nahoa · 02-05-2011, 06:40 PM

A couple more. Light isn't so good, but they're photos . . . .

Drnelly · 02-05-2011, 07:18 PM

Beautiful pictures and even more beautiful car, I love the interior combo and that dashboard lcd is really cool...

fedinand · 02-05-2011, 08:24 PM

Great pics! X3 is looking good - mineral silver is a great unique color…I like the subtle changes in appearance in the pics!

bastula · 02-05-2011, 08:40 PM

Really nice pictures!

I like your interior combination. I have beige in mine car now, but may spring for a darker color with the X3.

sfax · 02-06-2011, 02:45 AM

Great photos! Thanks. Congratulations. She looks great. Have fun

I didn't know you got song names appearing on the dashboard display. Nice touch.

BIMMER UK 76 · 02-06-2011, 02:45 AM

Like the interior combo, damn not sure if im regretting ordering the oyster/sienna combo now

JamesBimmer · 02-06-2011, 07:08 AM

Thanks for posting the excellent photos! Beautiful car.

fedinand · 02-06-2011, 07:35 AM

I'm using your closeup shifter pic as my wallpaper…so I can get my daily fix until delivery

perto · 02-06-2011, 08:47 AM

Can someone explain what this is, look like a lane assist or? maybe a further option.

jijioben · 02-06-2011, 09:01 AM

Good catch! There appears to be both lane assist and start-stop cruise control. Interesting... Maybe the panel cutouts are made from the same "stencil/serigraph" the X5 uses? I'd like both features to be available in the future, but since I've already ordered I won't be waiting for an LCI.

Nahoa · 02-06-2011, 09:21 AM

Sunny morning pics. The car is fairly dirty with Winter road grime and water spots. That stuff sure plays out differently on this color compared to the jet black of the 330i!!

Nahoa · 02-06-2011, 09:22 AM

Thanks for the comments, folks. I'm really enjoying this car. Glad to hear the photos are helping a bit for those of you waiting; I remember that feeling a mere three days ago . . . .

sfax · 02-06-2011, 09:32 AM

Looking great in the morning sun. The 5th photo shows off the lines very nicely. Your photos should keep me going for another couple of weeks - thanks!

ktjernstrom · 02-06-2011, 09:41 AM

Great looking car, with a perfect color for a daily driver! Seeing those pics makes me glad I finally opted for the black interior.

Brutus1 · 02-06-2011, 10:06 AM

Looks sharp and I cannot see the dirt! Can't wait for mine-tomorrow!

Nahoa · 02-06-2011, 10:35 AM

For those of you considering this color and checking the photos above, the sky just clouded over a bit, but it's still bright. Now the car looks essentially silver. Will try to get a photo in case it's useful, but I won't be able to put it up until later tonight.

Marla17 · 02-06-2011, 11:06 AM

Is the comfort access key worth it? I still can't decide if I want to add it. I ordered the power liftgate. Let me know your thoughts! Thanks!
