New car arrive and had it for a week and loving it.

I am glad I did not get the Tesla MS.
The car is so much better in handling than my old F10.

A list of some mods on the car

1st mod is small things:
Tint windows
Coating
BC Wheels
KN filter
Boot spoiler
Door protection
M performance black grill
3m headlight protection
Paint calliper to m colour

2nd mod: Next Year
Wrap roof, mirrors to glass black to match m trims.

3rd mods: 2 Years time
Quad exhaust
Performance diffuser

Yeah, that looks like a screen you'd find on a Chevy Spark, not a 6er. Does it have Nav? If so, hopefully you have Heads Up Display otherwise, you'll constantly have to pull off to the side of the road to be able to see what direction to head in

Is that something specific to UK? Coz I know for sure the nav is standard here in the US, even on the 5er for the last couple of years.

Other than that, the car looks amazing. I love the darker shade of the lower bumper. Mine is gray, but I prefer yours

Yeah that's unacceptable for a 6er. It should have been standard to have the full size screen.

So it looks like Hong Kong cars get the very basic model. Based on the headlights, it is an LCI. But the iDrive controller is also outdated. This is an M sport 6er; should have had all the goodies of an M sport across the world - including full size nav, touch pad iDrive controller, etc.; Especially since its an LCI.

BTW just to let you guys know the price in HK for 1 of these cars.
$160,000usd and this is only with M Sport package.
I wish I was back in UK the car is so much cheaper with full options
