Well I think the X3 is mine, but my wife drives it more lol. We only have one car at the moment and since we live 1.5 mile from where I work I mostly ride by bicycle to work. When/if my wife gets a job (we just moved here), I'll probably buy a beater as a second car for when I need to drive to work....for now. Eventually the plan is for my wife to get whatever car she wants and the X3 will be fully mine again lol.

Congrats on the car to the OP!

Registered in her name and she pays for it lol. ..... but I will admit I swayed her in getting the M40i part for when ever I drive it.

Well played White looks really good on it, congrats! Would have been my choice if we didn't already have two white cars.

Those 19’s look good. Enough so that I wish I would have avoided the 21’s.

Yeah, the Cerium Grey pieces seem to be a pain when it comes to water marks. I really like the look of it but was not a fan of that issue and it helped make my decision to swap it out even easier.

Congrats! Car looks great! The 19" wheels should give you a smoother ride on those rough NYC streets! Enjoy the ride

Thank you, and yes the roads here are brutal on wheels. Had the 19s also on the X5 before this one.

Same here, also got the 19s because of road conditions in my area. So far, they've been great and I have no worries going through potholes. Might get some 20s though when the tires are done.

I'm confused, the mirrors look cerium to me. What am I missing?

Congrats and welcome to the X3 family! Alpine White is the best color IMO!

What interior did you guys go with?
