I wish I could have ordered an X3M instead of a highly specced G01 20i but given that it will be my other half's car, barely 10% of its performance would be used.

However in 18 months I will get myself something fun. Whether it will be a G80 M4 or used F30 M140i depends on what I will feel at the time. I will give the X3M a test drive too.
Shouldn't it be G82? and F30 doesn't sound right for a 1 series, because it isn't...?
