I like how it looks, the front looks similar to the X6 performance pkg


"...The X3 also becomes the first model in BMW's growing X franchise to adopt electric power steering (the automaker's controversial variable sports steering rack is optional), as well as optional Damper Control and Dynamic Drive Control (as seen on its range of sedans and sports cars)..."


"...Power will come from BMW's Twinpower Turbo (Bimmerese for twin-scroll turbo) inline six-cylinder engine that gives the XDrive35i model 306 brake horsepower at 5,800 rpm with max torque of 295 pound-feet of torque at just 1,300 rpm. That's good enough for a 0-62 mph time of just 5.7 seconds and a top speed of 152 mph, though it's not clear if that figure will be governed when it reaches us Yanks. An entry-level xDrive28i model will also receive I-6 power, with 240 hp and 230 pound-feet of torque. Naturally, diesel mills will also be available in other areas of the globe, but as of yet, BMW officials haven't committed to bringing an oil burner to the States...."

So based on this depiction, EVERY MSport pack will look exactly the same regardless of model? Yuck!! :thumbsdown:

^I kind of like the MSport pkgs for the BMW SUV's tho...

I would like it better if it wasn't the same on the 3, 5, X5, and probably the new 6. At least with the E6x, E9x, E7x they were all a little distinctive. The fact that they all look the same now makes it look more bland overall to me.

Wow...the new old look nice...lot more better than the old styles (almost like toaster on the wheels)

it 100 time better than the last 1.

this is why I dont go for the M tech look.

the aero-kit definitely helps...the standard body kit seems a bit lacking IMO....

looks pretty dope. way better than the current x3.
