Best pic's on the forum, my wife so those pictures and i have to go to the dealer to day and remove X-line option from the order. The bad thing its that the roof railing is standard in Norway, but I knew I can order black railings as a accessory.

Agree, stunning with the all black! Was contemplating that, but ended up with white and no X-line.

Nice work! I love the setup, just wish we could get the sport package here in the USA without X-Line. I much prefer the all black vs the chrome and silver accents.

What is the XLine?
"X Line. Powerful elegance: with the X Line equipment package.
More Beautifully satinated Aluminium trim finishes the window recess covers and is integrated into the fairing under the doors. Titanium-look panels on the front bumper add unique character and, on the rear bumper, harmonise with the aluminium panels visible when the tailgate is raised. The door sills are in stainless steel and feature BMW lettering."

Wow, thanks again everyone for the kind words!

To reply a few questions:

This post would probably explain what Combox does much better than I would
http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=362709

Tires- The moment I left the dealership I went to get snows installed. I have Pirelli Sottozero 240 non-RFT in the OEM 245 front/275 rear size.

VDC ride- I can't compare to a non-VDC equipped car. Haven't driven one. However, I can tell you in normal mode it's a REALLY smooth ride... almost benz like. Smoother than my previous X5. Sport mode is comparable to a sport pkg E70.

About the XLine- It comes bundled with the executive package in canada, so it was a special order delete.

Re Tires, those are now available here at Tirerack, too, and look perfect for this vehicle. Are you concerned about not having runflats and having no spare? What's you're thinking there? Am I worried too much about that? I'm in urban and suburban areas, so I can call for help. Just go with it?

Would have been my choice for the leather. Your car looks amazing, big wheels change this car totally along with loosing the chrome bits.
