Against my better judgement, I was told these problems would be easy to address (which has been wrong so far). As such, I already signed the purchase agreement and technically own the car now. If I decide that I am unhappy in some way with the repair when I go back to get it - what is the next option or path for me?

I think there's an old lawyer saying that "Possession is 9/10ths of the law". The vehicle may be yours on paper, but as long as you have not taken physical delivery of it, there is still room for re-structuring the deal such that you get an un-damaged product (which is what you paid for). As soon as you get in and drive it off the lot, all bets are off.
Anyway, you got nothing to lose by trying. Stay calm and go through the process. At best, they will take the "fixed" X5M for themselves (they'll write it off as a floor model and/or demo model) and then get you a new allocation. At worst, you will still wind up with this one, but you'll have made such a big stink about it that they'll have to concede on other things, like custom-extending your warranty and service to 75,000 miles (not a bad thing to ask for in light of "damaged goods").
