Well,
I got back with the new car. All I can say is "Wow!"
What an awesome vehicle!
Driving back from Spartanburg half a thousand miles was a pure joy. And that is still with the break-in restrictions.
The Performance Delivery Center is a must for anyone who is curious to explore the limits of your car (safely). Such a memorable and enjoyable experience for you and your other half. Highly recommend it, as the whole process was beyond super!
Really makes me want to get another M and do the M school now!
Driving impressions, even after flogging the PCD X5M on the track hard, make me grin every time I hit the gas, take a turn, or hit the brakes. It seems unfair to have so much power under your right foot. The car is just ready to pounce at any time. Incredible, I love it!
I am probably preaching to the wrong crowd here, but it's just awesome to be a part of the forum who really loves and cares for these M's!
Also, I got the clear bra installed before the long trip home and boy, thanks for everyone's suggestions to do so.
Pics coming shortly...
