Snow tires or all-seasons with M+S ratings are required in Germany. Personally, I'd bring the E90, the X3 isn't that much bigger and you'll enjoy the 330 on the roads more. Warranty doesn't matter because even US Spec cars have only 2 years of warranty in Europe and the balance (PCS dependent) when you go back to the states. I don't think it transfers the other way around. M3's through the military sales program are cheap (relatively speaking) ~60k fully loaded is what I've seen. Including Navi and tech package. I just couldn't justify it right now, especially with 15 mpg city and $3.20/gal for premium. If they go to a F/I M3, I may just be making a trade in after the deployment.

Also, right outside Patch Barracks is the only Porsche military sales place, if you want to go to the dark side.
