Thanks for all the feedback. This is all very helpful. The X1 is back on my list as I wont need it for family road trips (wife is getting an Infiniti JX for that). Still haven't decided for sure that I'm going small crossover (X1 or Q5, leaning towards the former in rear drive but like the looks and space of the latter) or go with sedan (Cadillac ATS or 328/335, ATS might be a little too tight in the back). Currently lease 2011 Z4 but need more practical car again. Previously owned E90 335xi and enjoyed it. Prefer a sport sedan from a driving standpoint, but might go with sporty crossover to improve utility. Going to drive all four this winter and then decide.
