I wish I would had seen what sort of negotiating I could have done with the M Performance LSD. I'll be getting it added next spring. Otherwise, nothing.
If it were me regarding your car, I'd pass on the XDrive, get the summer performance tires, and buy a set of winter performance tires and wheels. X-drive is great for straight line acceleration and coming out of tight corners, but that's about it. I test drove a X-drive extensively as that's all the dealers stocked in Kansas City. No RWD or 6MTs to be found. I SO GLAD I didn't get the XDrive. It really dumb downs the dynamics and everything that makes this car great.
Also, if you don't select the summer performace tires, you get stuck with narrow and square 225/40R18 rubber on 18x7.5 rims vs the summer tires which are staggered 18X7.5 and 18X8 rims and 225/40r18 and 245/35R18 tires.
