I was in a similar situation. I have an M Sport on order for ED in December. It was originally X Line, but I changed my order after thinking it over a while.
Overall I think the M Sport looks better. I like the more aggressive look. The X Line has black cladding all around the lower body, which looks like a cost-saving measure to me.
The fat M Sport steering wheel is significantly nicer than the X Line wheel, at least in pictures.
Also, the M Sport should have a slightly lower stance, about 1"/2.5cm, IIRC, and the M Sport upgrade wheels are much nicer than the slightly flowery-looking X Line upgrade wheels (which would be more at home on a VW New Beetle, IMHO).
BTW, I've also thought about painting the black area of the rear bumper to match the rest of the body, but the Estoril Blue paint I ordered may be hard to precisely color-match.
