New X3 has arrived!!

My new baby has arrived at the dealer! ?

All is perfect except this thing in the paint just behind the doorhandle. Anyone had similar paint issues?

Apart from that, think the car looks great and love the combo! Great new iDrive5! All the rest is as it was.

Very relaxed drive and sporty when it needs to be.

Congrats on the new car! I'm sure the mark can be covered up easily with some touch up paint.

On my car I noticed the paint scratched where the windshield wiper meets the hood. I'm sure the fools that prepped my car for pick up didn't bother to point the wipers in the up position before lifting it up to wipe down the car thus leaving the marks on the hood. But it didn't bother me much as all else was perfect and as long as touch up paint can cover it up, all is well. I would ask the dealer to fix it and get yourself a bottle of touch up paint for the inevitable rock chip.

It's not really a scratch, its more like some dirt got in there when the car was painted. I'll call the dealer on monday to get them to fix this.

Allready have some touch up markers from previous carbon black cars ?

Beautiful! Best wishes with it! Love those rims! That is a bummer! I'm sorry to hear and hope all works out!
