thanks Tim. and by the way the window sticker and build sheet that came with the X3 says
337 sports package contains
sport suspension
18 inch wheels
sport seats
M steering wheel
aerodynamic package
shadowline trim
with that said the suspension on my 2004 actually feel stiffer. As I recall the first year BMW was criticized for the suspension being to harsh. I personally like it.
so does anyone know how this sports suspension is any different (it doesn't seem any lower)
EDIT - ok I think I found the answer according to the sales brochure for 2008
Sport Package:
1 Make the most of the fun-loving capabilities of the X3 SAV® by adding the
optional Sport Package. This adds sport suspension calibration
2 and 18" wheels with all-season
tires, enhancing the X3’s performance characteristics. Its looks become even bolder and more
purposeful with a full-body aerodynamic kit, including body-color side skirts and front and
rear bumpers; exterior shadowline trim completes the effect. Inside, front sport seats hold
you tight as you navigate turns, gripping the three-spoke leather-wrapped M Sport steering
wheel. And for an even more eye-catching look and heightened performance, optional Y Spoke
(Style 191M) 19 x 9.0 front and 19 x 9.5 rear alloy wheels with 235/45R-19 front and 255/40R-19
rear performance tires
3 are available.

Requires optional Nevada Leather upholstery or Premium Package.

Note: Sport suspension consists of stiffer springs and anti-roll bars. While these features improve the sporty handling
of the X3, they can also create a firmer ride, which may not be acceptable for all customers.

Due to low-profile tires, please note: wheels, tires and suspension parts are more susceptible to road hazard
and consequential damages. Performance tires not recommended for driving in ice and snow conditions.
