Any pics of 2006 with Sport Package?

Does anyone have pics of their 2006 X3 with the sport package? I am curious to see the rims in a real life photo. I am also curious about the "M" interior badges. Thanks!

UK BMW X3 M SPORT with optional 19inch Y spoke alloys!!

Xenons, Bluetooth, black leather, sapphire black - v. nice drive!!

Looks cool! I like your alloys. What's the brand?

They are an option on European M SPORT Models!

19 inch wheels are a must with the M SPORT kit

Do you happen to know the Model / Style number for these wheel? I looked thru all the BMW brochure and websites, but can't find any info.

Thanks.

I plan on getting the 20" X5 4.6 rims. They look nice on the X3.

SUkid:

I had a feeling that was it... And I dont like it...

I found a pic of those as well. I am getting them either way I think. That way if I do hate them, I can trade them in to my Wheel guy. He said the X3 19's are worth $1000.

So I think these are the wheels Ill end up with. Chrome of course!



What do you guys think?

Definitive

If they offered those as an upgrade, I'd get them for sure.

That silver X3 isn't the sport package, it's aerodynamic package

The rims are 191 series as i ordered them on mine!

Here ya go......

Nice. I have the same one and I love the color. I am however dying to try the 19" Y spokes on it. I would like to know if anyone has gone from the 18" over to the 19" rims (on a sport packaged vehicle). I am trying to determine if the investment is worth any gain in handling.

+1 I'm drooling over these 19" Y spokes as well! we have the crappy stock 17" on our X3 at the moment.

After 8 miles of forest service roads of Rt. 12 by Yakima, WA.

^ Nice to see it on the trails! ... excellent color btw

Here's my '06 M Sport, which I just got last month. This is my first BMW, and somewhat coincidentally my first post here.




and the "M" badges..

Nice!, does it have the ///M badge on the hatch door?

Thanks man! Actually it doesn't have one on the hatch; the steering wheel and door sills are the only places (unless I just haven't noticed them anywhere else!).

I have 19 7 series rims for sale on brand new tires , looks fantastic on the X3 $500 plus shipping.

See this post for pics....

I also have SP and IMO its great but the only down side is you can't get the heated steering wheel. Good luck
cheers

Its hard to tell from the picture, and I don't pick up my 06 w/ the sports package til Saturday, but I think that the is an ///M badge on the wheels too.

The M badge inventory on a USA-spec sport package car, or for that matter a Euro M sport package car is:
-- One on the steering wheel
-- One per door threshold
-- One per alloy wheel

There have been sport package models with the M on the exterior (side moldings; very small) some years ago, but in recent years no BMW with an M sport package or a sport package has come from the factory with an M on the trunk lid or hatch.
