I have to say that low end, it feels no different to my 530d. I was expecting a little more "oomph". Maybe it'll loosen up a bit?
Having put another 150 miles on the car today, I would like to withdraw the above comment. The power delivery is smooth and refined but MY GOD does this machine shift. I cannot begin to imagine what it will be like after a visit to DMS!

What does the M Sport option get you? Looks like your wheels are the same as a 550i w/Sport pkg.

Congrats on the new ride!!!

Bigger wheels (standard 17", M-Sport takes this up to 18", then I paid extra for the 19"). Sports steering wheel, full sports body kit (front/rear bumpers and side skirts). Upgraded seats, but I paid extra to upgrade them again to "comfort seats". Lowered suspension... umm... anthracite leadlining ... what else, help me out guys

... and I think high gloss shadow line exterior (no chrome), 'M' strips on door sills, different default trim strips in dash / doors, & even the standard Sports Seats get half leather/alcantara combo....

any more?
