I went from an F30 335d to an 840i GC and haven't regretted it for a minute. It's a great car. On paper it's marginally slower than the 335d (0-62 5.2s vs 4.8s), but it feels pretty lively to me. There is less weight difference between the M340i and 840i GC than you might expect.
I would certainly take one over an X3, particularly a mid range 30d. I did try the X3MC as well but the ride was far too harsh and unforgiving for me.
