I park mine at work next to a colleagues black X5 M sport and another X5 SE and they do look very similar from front and rear, main giveaway is how the rear window kink upwards. My X3 certainly does not look out of place or class

I am on a roll now.
Saw a mineral silver this evening on the A64 Leeds/York road at about 6 this evening. Turned off and followed me into Tadcaster on the A659. It had xenons and it is the first time I have seen the DRLs in action. They looked absolutely fantastic and am really pleased I will have these. |

aaaaahhhhhh, I was trying to forget that part...
![]() 7m yen base, on-the-road 7.7m inc. extras Base for 35i in Japan includes alot of 'extras' compared to US / Eur base cars - sat nav with large screen, 19" wheels, dynamic driving control, leather seats, dual zone aircon etc. Just had to pay extra for panarama roof & metallic paint. I bought one of the first two being sold in Tokyo... just lucky with timing. I preferred buying my last BMW when the exchange rates vs. USD (120 yen) / GBP (220 yen) made it 30% / 40% cheaper... JPY prices of similar Audi / MB etc are pretty much the same ove here... |

My DH says he sees them all of the time. I have only seen one (other than mine). He drives a lot more than I do though. The dealership cannot keep them in stock, so I have to assume there are a lot on the roads. They just seem to avoid areas I am driving in.

Live in Southern California and have seen three total in my town, including my own. In fact, I was driving my other car last week and saw a white X3 with no license plates parked on a street around the corner from where I live. I was excited to see another X3 and pointed it out to my passenger, until I noticed my boyfriend walking up to the car and driving off. Ha - it was my own car!
I have seen 1 or 2 X1's here. Is the car out yet or are they just demos? |

Nice one marmite. What a setting for one too.
Still no XBimmers members' X3s spotted though. I saw "Titanium Silver" and thought maybe I'd been spotted but I definitely wasn't in the Alps with Italian plates!
