Yep, I traded the X on it. It was actually on the lot, so I didn't choose the color combo--the other 330i had black leather, which I didn't want. But the Arctic is actually quite a nice color--looks silver, blue, or green depending on the light. The adaptive xenons are sweet. The BT is advanced over the system I had on the X, and the Sirius is somewhat more user-friendly than before. Here's a couple more pics:

I don't know why BMW chose to make the rear turn signals red (like the E39 5-series wagons). Maybe I'll check into some Euro taillights.

I'm really hoping that the E90 M3 won't be insanely expensive or I'll have to start obsessing about another car.
Don't get me started about the forthcoming M3....

I really like the E90! I'm not a fan of the dashboard though. It's ugly.

The red turn signals are definitely better than the ambers, but of course, the clears are best. I can see why BMW wants to make it red...to somewhat keep their "trademark" of the L-shape tail lamps.

I don't mind them "looking" red, but they also blink red...

Shameless self-promotion: I will shortly post my X5 goodies for sale that I removed prior to trade-in...for anybody interested.

I didn't like the double-hump i-Drive dash, but that wasn't a problem as this one didn't have Nav. It does grow on you. It does make me smile when I drive it---what a sweet exhaust note, and I finally got my sixth gear!
