Love it all except the cupholders, and if that's the only problem then the car is damn near perfect. I have been lucky enough to avoid all the quirks that others have had (knocking on wood) so I am very happy with my car.

I don't like the aesthetics of the trunk from the side. It looks too short. Also, I hate that we don't have a touch screen at this point. The iDrive is fine, but I really want touch screen, where I can set the destination by just touching somewhere on the map and then hitting enter, a la Lexus.

I love most everything except the throttle response. Hence, I've ordered the Sprint Booster.

i dont like the cup holders, the fact there isnt a touch screen, or all the noises you can hear in the cabin. I love everything else....wait, I also hate the fact there is no place to put my cell phone, there is a lack of compartments/space up front by the arm rest
