I had an X2 m35i prior to the m440i and I really loved the size of the X2. The X3 seems huge in comparison. I never got to drive the m40i X3 but I bet it's a blast. The simplicity of the X2 was nice and the m35i had a pretty good interior and the 300hp i4 was the car equivalent of a yappy dog. Just a feisty beast but very unrefined.
It was supposed to be a car I kept long term but I had multiple drivetrain malfunctions and other things that just kept me antsy about being out of warranty. Even though I didn't get a deal on the m440i I was able to take advantage of the ridiculous used marked and get 33k for a 3yo car so that took the sting off trading it.
