The X1 is using the M wheel from the M-Sport E90 which had no heat. X1 is built on an E chassis vs an F like the X3 so it's still using older parts, like the wheel.

Not surprised no heated wheel option on the M-Sport

i remember reading that the X1 shared a chassis with the F31, which I thought wasn't right

didn't notice the lack of 704 on the sport line. that's silly but okay. why can't we get oyster leather on the m-sport?

You won't. The M Sport line begins with 2013 F30, which starts production in July.

1900 for X line for the privilege of spending another 1450 on terra leather where I really want the sport (for wheels and seats- also not worth it) because the M sport has that superphat wheel most love but I loathe. All that to avoid pleather where I'd be completely fine with a nice quality cloth like they get in Europe. Personally I refuse to overspend for a car I can't even get how I want- its all very very annoying to me. Had they brought the option of a manual OR a diesel I might be a bit more willing to compromise on the details. But they didn't and I'm put off at their new extortion methods to the point I may not come back to the brand.

Yep, the coral red is awesome. I'd prefer saddle brown, but at least there's an option other than beige and black. Does anyone know what the curb weight will be? I'd probably only consider an F31, but it's interesting to see the X1 specs.

[Fugly M3]

Curb weight is low- 3527lbs for the sDrive 28i, 3726 for xDrive 28i and 3891 for the xDrive 35i


and yea, saddle would be nice. so would oyster with sport and sport but oh well.

Everybody who is displeased with the lack of a manual option, please call or email BMW! If they get enough demand, they will bring one here!

call them. come on, we all know they troll around on here. someone has the awesome job of trolling on here for BMW, and more specifically BMW USA. So, to the BMW troll subscribed to this thread: X1 sDrive 28i manual please!

[BassBoomBottom]

I don't understand why they don't offer you guys the manual, are yours not built in Germany still? if so what difference does it make if you want a manual?

[Fugly M3]

^ I think the X1 is actually going to be built in the US- or I remember reading that somewhere

[Fugly M3]

edit: I MUST be wrong- they must be made in DE, given that they are available for ED. that's great news. a loaded 28i sDrive is only $45k sticker, that means an ED invoice of about $39500-40000. that's awesome for a lease. I'm even more interested. BMW GIVE US A STICK!
