BMW Canada is being stupid. They took away the sport package for the 2009 323i sedan, which is precisely what I'd want. They also took away the Bi-xenon headlamps (incl. adaptive function) and a couple colours. Now all that's left are luxury options like heated steering wheel and the 6-speed Steptragic transmission.

Last year, they took away the X3 3.0i (I know it as the 2.5si), which was a nice, middle of the ground X3.

I'm not really sure of the reasoning behind this.

It's coming to the day where I cannot buy a (new) car I like in all of North America.
