Sport package was a bit bouncier than the non-sport but not half as bad as a lot of posts I read here. I guess I am just used to my 330i zhp! I will post pics shortly. Thanks again for everyone that helped answer our questions through our search.

Congrats! Cant wait to see the pics. Yeah, agree on the balanced ride and handling of the sport. lots of X3 owners are coming from cars with cushy suspensions, so they kinda freak out when they test out the SAV and find that its tuned for control at speed rather than comfort in traffic.

I am one that "freaked out" with the rock hard suspension. Just got back from a 500 mile trip to Mendocino, car ran great lots of smooth back roads so the jarring ride wasn't too bad. Averaged 22.5 mpg for the whole trip, back roads, freeways, and logging trails. Great little car, I just wish it had the Porsche Cayenne air suspension option. Good luck with your new ride!
