I disagree. We collectively should be happy about this transaction, and clearly we are not.

I really appreciate everyone's concerns and what not; we could have not been any happier with the Lemans Blue. The Lemans Blue is driving better then sapphire black; we're not experiencing the down shifting situation like we did with the Sapphire Black. Its going to the dealer next week to have all the cracked trim pieces replaced and the peeling steering cover replaced; I was able to have the service manager to replace it with the M cover at no cost. I have a really good relationship with the service manager; he has been our SA for about four years now.

He did not mentioned, but he stated that the steering wheel covers are the same on the M as the 4.8is. Will post some pictures once I get the x back from the dealer.

The sport steering wheel on the 4.4 is the same as on the 4.8 and neither have an M logo. I'm curious to see this.

Well then I'm definitely confused and I think so are you. This is the 4.8is and 4.4i Sport package steering wheel. Which is what I assume you have. The cover of an M3 or M5 steering wheel will not fit it.

Like I have said, that is what the service manager is telling me. I'll confirm with next week. I pretty sure you're correct my friend.

Hey - maybe he gave you the M steering wheel? THAT would be fantastic.
