I have put 12,500 miles on my one now, in 7 months or so.

Absolutely love it !

Was going to get an F10 M5, but decided hey, let's go for something a bit different and glad I did.

It's so exclusive on the roads, and I live in central London where you see hyper cars all over the place.

It's a very large car but I can manage it in central London so it sort of works just about. It does shrink around you when you get moving though. You are pretty cocooned in the cabin and a few blind spots due to the A pillars.

Cruising across country is a joy! Almost unlimited reserves of power and cruises at 40 mph per 1000 rpm in top gear. 2,500 rpm at 100 mph is nice for long haul drives. Just got back from 2,500 miles across Europe including a few 500 miles in a day hops. Effortless and felt like I could do a return 500 mile trip, no problems.

The interior design, fit and finish is truly amazing. It's a very special place to be. Leather and Alacantara everywhere.

Forget the moon roof....you'll be too busy looking a mile ahead of you as yo'll be there in 30 seconds or so

Make sure you get the surround view option. Soft close doors and comfort access is nice. I got night vision with pedestrian recognition, skip that, pretty pointless as far I could see... forgive the pun.
