I looked at the 535xi wagon but it's too much of a family car and that's not me. Trust me i'm not sold on the FX, but it's the front runner right now...

Good point on the X3 trans being a safety issue.
I wasn't aware that the MDX had a front wheel bias all wheel drive system. I actually don't know which ones have front and which have rear wheel drive bias to tell you the truth. If you are leaning to rear drive bias, it sounds like your choices will be somewhat limited.
Good luck with your search.
