Those rims really look sharp against the blue. Good choice.

How is the white interior holding up? Is it true jeans blue show up

DOH that's rough! Hopefully, this winter won't be too bad.

It appears that you are really dying to select Sport Plus mode and put your peddle to the metal once you hit 1200 miles.

Funny how we all look forward to that 1200 mile mark, but then the miles go soooo fast afterwards. I'm at 5324 now and I'm cryin, but at the same time it's so enjoyable to drive.

I'm hoping some of mdoneinvt's good luck will rub off on me. He was also concerned about having bad weather around the time he was scheduled to pick up his car.

So true, waiting for the 1200 mile mark and then gunning the engine reminds me of the famous scene in the movie Red River when the cattle stampede.

Ya'll get beautiful mountains, Texans get all year-long top down weather.

Removed the electrical conduit under the hood and replaced with Cusco brace.

Agree, I'm at 2750 miles and it still has that new car scent.

Not sure don’t wear them often and haven’t worn them in the car yet. Still looks good but I can see it will require a bit more to keep it clean. But I figured that would be the case going into it.

Actually I have used sport plus with manual shift almost exclusively so I can vary my rpms and engine load for proper break in. And of course to hear the exhaust wow just wow.

Yes, the sound of the exhaust in Sports Plus gives me goosebumps too!

Still don't have my car and it has been sitting at the Baltimore port for over a week. I'm not sure I'm going to get it before Christmas or not. It's waiting on a RAM.

I have seen where some people have waited up to 4 week for their RAM. I have also seen where people said that now BMW is shipping the RAM to the ports so that shipping time for the RAM and cars overlap and should make the wait for the RAM install to be shorter. I really hope the overlap shipping is true and your wait is almost over. My car is still in the middle of the Atlantic.

I'm sure you will get yours prior to XMAS. The beautiful thing about the RAM issue is "Sold" cars take top priority over Dealer stock.

At least BMW has their priorities right!

I have the same ivory leather interior as mdoneinvt and the shop that installed my Xpel PPF also used Xpel Fusion Plus Upholstery ceramic coating to protect my seats. So far, so good, not a smudge is appearing.

Installed K&N air filter and blocked off the big resonator. No time for a test drive tonight though to see if I liked it.

My car smells like traffic. LOL!!!!

Kidding aside, my son has made the comment it still smells new. I've always taken alot of pride in my cars. I have a very sensitive sense of smell and cannot stand it when cars smell "off" inside.
