And is that 2011 only?
A 2011 35i X3 is faster than E53 4.6is and 4.8is. I guess you missed this I had posted......http://www.xoutpost.com/790268-post9.html

I drove an X3 35i at their event a couple weeks back. That thing hauls ass, simply put.

I still don't like the design, and didn't really feel/understand the difference between DS mode and sport/sport+ selections, but when in any of those, it just went... with the signature lag of course.

I did miss that! So how do older ones compare? Does a 08 get it's ass handed to it by a 4.8, or is it still fairly close?

Which older ones?
From LCI press release:

The new X5 xDrive35i will perform the 0-60mph sprint in 6.4 seconds, coincidentally on the same pace as the outgoing V-8 powered X5 xDrive48i.

Wish list for the F40 X5

Wish list for the F40 X5

1. 3rd row option be a little bit more spacious
2. 2nd row continue to be able to move forward/backward
3. Sport Package / M-sport Package (with areo kit) be release at time of launch
4. Full black panel dashboard
5. Red leather interior and mineral white exterior
6. Hydraulic suspension with ride height adjustment (also with easy entry function by lowering the car)
7. Understand that the F40 X5 may grow in size but please do not make it too much longer than it is now (the current length of the car is just right)
8. Less heavy

Thanks!
