model year differences?
Were there major changes between the X5 35i between 2011 to 2013?
Would you rather buy a low mileage 2011 or slightly higher mileage 2013 for slightly higher price? also was the rear seats with heat an option back in 2011? thanks |

For the 35i only, 2011, I'd make sure it has the Premium Sound Package (option 677A), the base audio (option 645A) for that specific year/model is terrible. For 2012 they ditched that audio package. Heated rear seats were a standalone option in 2011, and fairly rare. Part of the Cold Weather Package starting in 2012. I'd get a 2012+ |

Also they fixed a lot of little issues the later in the model range. But my 2012 has 120k miles on it now and drives great and no oil leaks. |

thanks guys.
Also, what is the difference between the 'sports activity' and 'premium' version. |

As I recall, Sport adds to Premium with the following: Sport seats (I'd still recommend finding one with the upgraded Multi-contour seats) Sport steering wheel (upgrade over the base/premium wheel, but still not as nice as the M Sport wheel) Anthracite headliner Shadowline exterior window trim (instead of chrome on the base/premium) Different style 19" wheel w/ 20's optional Extended wheel arches I'm probably missing an item or two but those are the big ones. I'd get Sport model for sure at a minimum, if not the M Sport. |
