I'm all for just getting the xLine HOWEVER some might be forgetting that it probably will not come with:
Sport automatic transmission with shift paddles
Anthracite headliner(not a deal breaker for sure but nice)
Shadowline exterior trim(REALLY want this, but can live without I suppose)
Body Colored Sideskirts and Fender Brows
It LOOKS (in the pics) like we gain paddle shifter on the xLine whereas previously they were M Sport exclusive so that's good. Maybe we get the sport tranny also in the xLine.
Of note I don't now if you noticed the interior option with leather/cloth. When's the last time you've seen cloth on a BMW? It looks good too. The xLine interior in the press release is Mocha which is stunning to me. I previously wanted Chestnut, gone, but Mocha is awesome! I also welcome the Saddle Brown choice as well.
