Thanks. Noticeable more comfortable ride than my E70. Feels bigger and less sporty, but overall a very good cruiser and 3 kid hauler. Wife had a blast at the PCD. I've done it a few times, so...

Agree the stance is less aggressive with the new styling, hence perfect for the wife who was comparing against a Mercedes GL.

At the track today to drive Ariel Atoms. Guess what showed up by the truckload. Must say they look sharp in person. Was on the fence about pre-ordering a m-sport for my wife, but have about...

Congrats! Looks great. After the break-in, I settled into around 21mpg on the highway; 16mpg or so in the city. Curious on decision process between AS and adaptive drive. I don't have either, but...

I'm pretty sure mid 4.8's could be done with this SAV. Performance pack bumps it up to 440/480, plus 8-speed gearing, so plenty to get moving. 3rd gear comes up right around 60mph.

Lot's of highway miles for the break-in, so a very easy life for this SAV. Just shaking the cobwebs off the top of the tachometer.

Multi-contour seats were a must when I ordered my 2013. Coming out of a 2011 50i, this X feels stronger with the M-performance option. The black exhaust tips are a nice touch, distinct from...

Have you had a chance to test drive both the 50i and 35d? Best to experience in person, but I don't think you'll be disappointed paying a bit more for the 50i M-sport. Great exhaust note (different...

The driving experience in the new M5 is much better than the styling. I still think Ford Taurus or Kia every time I see the front quarter-panel. Amazing car nonetheless.

We've done a few pizza parties too, so guilty on that count...The team was pretty psyched by the whole experience. A good investment IMO.

A symmetrical cut for the hitch will look better. Would be nice if the cutout was limited to the black baffle, but agree that would require some more elegant engineering.

Nice combination! Black/bamboo interior?

I see you opted for the performance pack. Never hurts to have a few extra HP. The M sport exhaust has a nice rumble, particularly in the mid range.
