X1 and e91 comparo
Many reviews compare the X1 to the e91 so I herded them together for a quick visual lineup. M Sport on both and it really makes the X1 handle quite well. I bit stuff on the bumps but about the same as my e91. DS is the best drive mode on the X1 and keeps the revs up above 2K RPM, where I prefer in all the manuals I've driven.
Also noticed the floor mats and wheel locks from e91 are exact fit on the X1

Actually went to look at a used 2012 E91 at a local BMW Dealer...
He showed me the X1 instead.. Fast forward six months...X1 3.5i in the driveway |

About the same. A buddy has a 2009 328iT, and aside from the power and transmission and it being rwd, it drives and feels very similar to the X1. There's more headroom in the X1, both in the front and back, but there's a little less room behind the seats.

It has a little bit more luggage space, interior quality is about on par. |

X1 is nimble but slightly top heavy vs. e91. 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!
