It is at home in my garage right now. Came a couple of weeks earlier than originally estimated. Black looks so good when it is clean. And I love the brushed aluminum interior trim, looks cool and modern.

And additional benefit with x-drive models: Star Spoke 138 17" rims with non-RunFlat tires as standard from the factory (came with Michelin Pilot Primacys).

Hardly can wait until March when I switch from winter tires (Nokian on 138 style alloys as well) to summer rubber. The ride is amazingly quiet and comfortable even with with the winter tires.

Tomorrow morning I will take a long and scenic route to work...
