Bimmer UK 76's X3 20d Sapphire Black, Oyster Leather & Sienna Wood

Can anyone explain why the pics from PalBay show what I believe to be the 28i with the sport package (well, it's the wheels from the sport package), but without the aluminum trim? I wanted to order my car like that, but was told it wasn't possible. Thoughts?

I'm not sure which pics you're talking about, but in Europe and Canada I believe X-Line can be deleted from the SAV package. Unfortunately, having tried 4 dealers and reached out to BMW directly, what you've been told is correct (at least here in the USA).

Sweet pics...

After about two months after I put in my order, my car went into production on week 19. I took delivery of the Carbon Black 35i M-Sport three weeks later. During the wait, I wavered a bit on the chestnut interior because I had not seen it in person. But I wanted to try something different from the black and wood trim interior of my previous car, a 2008 BMW 335i. At delivery, after taking my first look of it at the dealership, I am very happy I got this exterior color and the chestnut interior with the brushed aluminum trim. I ordered all the options except for HUD, Auto Hi-Beam, and Satellite Radio.

My initial impressions thus far confirm to me that the 35i is the best combination of roughly 80% of the sportiness of the 335i (hoping this percentage goes up after I'm done babying it during the break-in period) while gaining some practicality for a growing family. The cabin and the electronics are an upgrade to me. Here are some pictures my friend and I took on the second day after delivery. As you can see, I was so eager to take these pictures, I did not even think to remove a couple of the safety warning labels.

BTW, I also spent some of my X3 Difference accessory credit on an iPhone 4 media adapter cradle. I installed it but I could not get it to work as the iDrive told me that it failed to make a connection. BMW Apps worked with the iPhone using the USB cable connection. I brought it back to the dealer. The SA told me that they have had a couple of other customers come back with the same problem. He thought that either the connectors on the adapter or in the vehicle are poorly designed because there is not a whole lot of margin of error in making a proper connection. They swapped and installed a new adapter for me. Now it is working properly. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will continue to work flawlessly.

Thanks to all forum members who have helped me to get well informed about the X3.

received my Carbon Black/chestnut M-Sport X3 a few weeks ago. got it detailed and testing out the car with some pics.

absolutely love the exterior and interior colors. carbon black looks amazing in the sun and it's the only M-specific color available on the X3. M-sport package is a fantastic value and sport settings clearly stiffen and tighten the suspension. if you're on the fence about M-sport, i highly recommend it!

here's lots of gratuitous ///M shots
