Ahhhh yes enjoy that car! Now find some quiet roads and test out launch control!

I did the same. There was no downside to it plus I got to learn how the vehicle handles and reacts. Now it's just a super fun vehicle to drive!!!

Yeah, I figure I am essentially reprogramming my brain from my old Range Rover Evoque to this BMW - so I will take my time, get used to it, learn its different ways, adjust my sightlines, etc. and then after 1200 miles... learn exactly how much fun I can have with it.

There is plenty of fun to be had! I just crossed over 2,100 miles and have no regrets with this thing. I was actually worried I had too much built up but it's been a fun vehicle. I love how power is available whenever I need it and it's still pretty agile for an SAV.

Just saw my M40i off the truck, only driver lumbar, no width adjustment (driver/passenger).
