2. The model specified in the PDF is the new 4Cyl Turbo (N20) motor. My dealer also said in the email the PDF came with :

"The X1 will only have one base model (the one in PDF) and it's with the new motor (4cyl, Turbo 2.0L, 241 hp, 258 lb-pi), 0-100km/h in only 6.7sec. Fuel consomption 6.7L/100 km (highway). They will be available in our dealership in late april. it's the MY2012. On March 23rd, there will be a launch party where we can see (but not try) the new X1 and X3."
I take it the auto box as thats not listed as an option. Not too bad then as thats a $2k option here.

How does the price compare to, say a 325i in Canada?
