[XB101]

Ordered back late June but missed July production. Picked up the vehicle end of August. My agent did a good job going thru the car with me. I didn't really push it while driving home. I did put car in N, S, and S+ mode. Also did some manual shifting using the shifter and the paddles.

I haven't read the manual so that's what I need to do. Did play around with the iDrive and got a lot of the things set up.

Impressions:

1. Looks great. Car has stone shield and comes with 19" non staggered Eagle LS2. Will likely get matching tints.

2. Pretty quick although I did not drive hard at all. Saved that for another day. Did get close to 4500 rpm couple times as I am used to pushing up to upshift.

3. The presets. May be I did something wrong as I didn't get 8 stations stored per media but instead 8 total.

4. Moon roof looks cool. Rainy night so didn't open it.

5. BMW assist is quite neat. Nice lady in Ohio on the other end.

6. Will take some time getting comfortable in the correct seat set up. At first it seems a bit hard. Seats in my WRX feels wider and softer.

7. The headlights are a head turner :-)

8. Didn't turn the stereo on much. Was listening to the sound of the engine.

9. On the drive home there were 3 other BMWs on the road. Subaru guys quite often give each other the nod. Will see how things are with fellow Bimmer owners.

10. The mats didn't get to the dealership yet so I will have to wait for them to get to my house.


Pretty vague review but will discuss more later. Will try to take some pics this weekend.
