Basing on how well m40i drives without a doubt this will drive really well. The subtle looks are growing on me. Maybe I can trade in our m40i for one without my wife noticing

X5M has never had these things (except for trivially wider tires to the optional M sport kit) - I like that this is similarly understated

That might all well be true and I would tend to agree, as I am not an SUV fan, BUT drive it, before passing judgment would be wise in my opinion.
I agree with you that it probably drives well as an suv. My point was that M badge should never be put on this type of vehicle.

We live in dark times. Electric steering, M SUVs, "Coupe Styled SUVs", 4 door coupes, etc. The good ol' fashion days are sadly long gone

People had heart attacks when Porsche started building SAVs and cars but look what happened. They started building better and more variants of 911’s.
Let’s hope this helps M make better M2/3/4’s.

Well...even though it's still pretty tough to find driving impressions, you can finally hear it:

Is it possible to trade these cars with BTC or any other cryptocurrency?

Ha blast from not so distant past! Most comments revolve around the looks not being aggressive enough. I wasn't totally sold on the looks either but now that I have one I actually don't want it to stand out any more than just a little. I really like the subtle improvements over M40i and of course the performance gain is yuuuge over the baby M.
