I agree, I am so impressed w/ mine...CONGRATS, very nice!

Took me not much more than a detailed overview from my salesman and some playing around with it myself to learn it rather quickly. Very intuitive and useful. Between the iDrive and the Voice Activation, I barely touch anything else in the car besides the steering wheel, shift lever, and window/roof controls.

yes, I too am confused ath the negative comments about the interior and IDrive...I really like the Idrive and would not want to go back after using it now for 4 months.

Chris, I cant believe you waited till noon to pick it up...looks great.

A guy's gotta sleep sometime..... spent 15 hours the car the night before till 3am. But, actually, I would have gone earlier if the dealership was open sooner, noon was the irst appointment I could get on a Sunday.

Trust me, I tried my arse off to get it before I left. Got the call late Saturday and tried to make it happen for that Sunday, but they didn't have the staff to clean and prep it for Sunday.
