X1 Xdrive 35i Spotted in SoCal(USA)
On my way to work this morning I first saw a Mini Clubman in prototype form(I don't know why since it's already been released) and then a few cars away was a blue X1 Xdrive 35i. I didn't have my camera, but I stayed with it for a few miles on the freeway and made sure I was looking at the badge correctly on the side of the car. It had all of the options as the car in the picture below. It had the side Xdrive emblem, but said 35i. It also had a dual exhaust with darker looking exhaust tips(not chrome). Do you think they are putting the 3.0L N55 in the X1 for the US market?
Did anyone else see it? It was on 5 North in Irvine around 9am.

My dealer says that BMW were/are toying with the N55 engined X1 but that the tailpipes were single left and right, like on the 3-series.
Not for the right-hand (UK) market though PS: Two 3.0l's in left hand drive are available in Germany, the X1 2.5i and the 2.8i. You can be pretty certain one at least will be coming to the USA. Pricey though, the 2.8i is Euro 42000 in very basic spec, thats $57 000 in your money. Add at least $20k for the options and you are at $77k ...yikes. Probably be a wee bit cheaper in the states.
