So, what's next after the X3? I mean, it's already been over a month now... the itch has to be itching pretty bad, no?  ;D

I'm curious.  Did you get a chance to drive one before you bought it?  We cross-shopped the X3 (though the XDrive28i) when we were looking at the Audi Q5 and the dealership couldn't provide one for us to test drive.  Ended up being a deal breaker.  As I said before, the X3 is a sweet looking drive.

I was able to test drive the 28i twice and the 35i (non-Sport) three times, and my wife drove both once. The dealership had one of each that my salesguy claimed were there exclusively so that prospective buyers could drive each one extensively. They actually were BMW Canada cars. I took both cars without salesguy along, and for at least 1/2 hr or more each time.

Seems strange that the dealership you were at had none to drive. Too bad. I have driven the Q5 and prefer the X3 from a driving dynamics POV.
