all-wheel drive, standard xLine with 18s, and power tailgate just to name a few.

Why not get a Q3 or a GLC/K...

xdrive standard isn't a competitive advantage? I though jz.list was pretty good set of differentiators... at least from the old x1.. which sure seemed to take it's fair share of the market... the F48 is clearly more vehicle standard than what owners got with a base E84....

What bugs me truly is that the old one is significantly faster than the new one, and most likely handles better.
But this is better value for sure, mine was $42k and has far fewer goodies. I guess we'll see what the lease rates will be next year. If not I'll lease second hand a nice E84 M sport with the N55 engine, that's a proper little rocket.

Ha... was just saying that about value.. Definitely agree with you..
However.. with the F48 M sport not being available immediately.... I might also look for an E84 M sport right away..
