Picked up yesterday White 20D

It finally arrived yesterday! Ordered it back in December. But it was actually earlier than the promise date June 3rd.

Car looks so awesome, very happy so far! I will use the the current wheels for winter tires and buy new 18s or 19s for next summer season. I will buy it from Engaland and ship to Sweden, much cheaper... I have hard time so far deciding on the 309 or the 308.

My car has the halv leather and confirm the white stiching!

Some pictues (I hope, first time for me);

Great pictures Johan, congratulations to your new car! Please give us your first impressions after a while.

I still have to wait for two months for my F25, it's difficult...

loving the white and the half leather interior. Congrats! Question is dual climate control an option where you are coming from?

Great images and car. Is that a high gloss finish around the window frames insteas of the x-line? The trim/colour combo looks great. I have kept the std Euro 17" wheels for cost reasons which is maybe why I tell myself I think for std wheels they are not too bad.....

Looks fantastic. Congratulations! I definitely prefer the white SE with no xline.

Thanks for all the comments,

Dual climate control comes as standard in Sweden. Yes its the 307 wheels and I agree that they look better than I expected!

I just love the big nav, it makes the car looks more state of the art and the split screen with the cover art from the iPhone is great.

It'll be a long wait for mine I'm afraid, I'm not expecting delivery until week 45 (partly my choice to coincide with company car going back.)
