My mistake. However my point was that the car will see a maintained stint in the United States market for at least three or four years before receiving an update or replacement. I certainly wouldn't feel as comfortable with last generation's technology when almost all of the other models are Fxx. For most consumers, that won't matter. But I'd feel almost like I was duped into buying a car that isn't as up-to-date.

F31 will probably be a couple grand more but better gas mileage and a little better handler.
I'm not saying there's anything wrong with it. I'd just want the X1 to come here as a brand new model. I'm in no rush to get one, that is, if I'd even want one.
