thanks! we saw a few of the Mineral Silvers they had for delivery and I have to say if I had to do it again it would be tough not to pick that color. looks really good.

impressions so far:

We owned a 06 X3 which we liked but leaved a lot to be desired in the handling and technology departments. So far this car really solves all those problems. Responsive steering, tight handling, good turn in, compliant but well performing ride.

The iDrive is very intuitive and is our first BMW with it. Paired up with both our iphones nicely and I like how you can assign almost anything to the 1-8 buttons on the main panel. Save your 'home' number as #1 and it auto dials when you hold it down. Full of great customizable options that you just didn't have before.

So far so good even thou I've only put about ~20 miles on the car.

Interior looks great (few of us have been brave enought for oyster)

The V Red is also fantastic - a real head turner

Car looks great! Love the color.

I think we might live in the same subdivision. Your house looks familiar.

Gorgeous! I love the VR color. I'm planning on ordering one this month. My local sales assoc. advised I'm now looking at an 8 week wait on delivery, and not a production slot available until mid-April (even with the priority color).

Interior looks really sharp! Hope you're enjoying it. Would love to have mine out on the West coast for some road trips!
