First off and most important, WOW!!!! I use to think this forum was GREAT but now I DON'T.. The guys on this forum have done an AWFUL JOB of describing the sheer joy of this car. Its better than I know I could be. All the little problems we hear about on the forum, while annoying, do not take away from the car. (JK.. This forum is great). With that said, here are a few early takeaways.
1) I-drive while very cool is a little buggy.. If you get an error, try to restart before you get worked up. It will probably go away. Yes, had my first system error already.
2) Where is the storage. The car could use a lillte more storage space inside the car. What's with the phone cradle. How do I get that out..
3) Bluetooth is the best. I have the Razr and its very sweet. I still need to work on my voice commands but the system is cool and works great.
4) Run-flats are NOT very good. For those who wonder what the RF will feel like, Fill your current tires up until they are ready to bust, then go driving. I'm in the market for aftermarket rims and tires already. I would Like to do 20's but I may go 19's to be on the safe side.
5) The little orange lights that are placed in the car, very nice touch.
6) Logic 7... Best factory system I heard.
7) Nav, ok but it get the job done. I've had to use it twice already and it worked fine for me. Did the split screen method as discuss before on the forum and its fine.
Well, thats all I have for now.. I'll post some pics later today or tomorrow..
