is that what you are getting during the break in period?

+1 for the X5 M-Sport pkg, BMW got it right by paint matching all the molding with the M-Sport pkg, wish they would do that regardless....

Agreed on the paint matching of the molding, looks much nicer than the black molded plastic!

I have never actually check the mileage I'm getting on the M3, don't want to scare myself! Just guess based on memory but with mostly (90%) city driving and before 1,200 miles break-in service, I'm getting roughly 14-15 mpg... Kind of funny but the warning that you have 30 miles left in the tank happens with almost a 1/4 tank left!!! I'll get roughly 200 miles out of a tank (3 gallons left) so 13 gallons goes around 200 miles in the city.
