In the more budget minded X1 I can tolerate things of this nature although they're actually better in the E84- certain elements admittedly aren't. I prefer the back seat in the X1 also. Wish the X1 came with the nice info screen instead of having to pony up 2500 for the tech but having nav built in isn't a bad thing, its just a tax.
Judging by E90/E91 pricing, and looking at the UK F30/F31 pricing, the F31 will likely have a $2k price premium over a similar F30, so not that different to E84 pricing with much nicer interior materials and the newer iDrive as of Nov builds, however with that awful EPS. It would be a tougher call if my wife would drive a wagon, as it is, the E84 is her current preference.
