X1 2.8 has decent performance and I was very impressed when punching it to pass a "grey hair" putting along in the tan Avalon. I have the BMW Perf. intake and exhaust on the e91 and the straight 6 sound is beautiful...not much on the 4 banger turbo. (waiting for Supersprint to release their axle-back)
X1 is sort of an all-road hatchback. The x35 must be an absolute screamer!

I have a 2013 x1 28i, it has the bigger mirror like the 3 series wagon but no integrated turn signal. But I'm okay with it, the bigger side mirror is definitely more comfortable to look at.
