Just bought it 2 days ago with 300 miles on the clock... What a nice SAV and yes, it was a surprise for my wife. She absolutely loves it!

Here are some pics...

Thanks! It is a fun car to drive indeed. Can't wait to get it to 1,200 miles, so I can give it a nice, spirited try.

What I am debating is whether to wrap the frozen grey areas in gloss black. I might have to Photoshop it and see how it looks.

Anyone seen any X2 with those gray parts wrapped or painted gloss black?

One of the reasons I didn't go for the M-package was the grey cladding, the non-M package has them in black.

Oh wow, I didn't know that. I got this vehicle for such an amazing deal, that I simply jumped all over it. Not saying the grey is horrible, but I just wonder how it would look all in gloss black.

I much prefer the body color panels on the m35i over all the others. It’s an interesting color and I bet it looks amazing in the sun.

It sure does! Really unique color, which is why we liked it so much. You don't see it too often. Actually, the only other time I've seen it, was last year on an M4, I believe it was.

Congrats on your new toy! I have the same colour as yours, everyone praises it when they first see it, a really distinctive image colour. The downside is my friend lecture me not to do any aggressive behaviour on the road, no one will forget your car. HaHa!
I'm on a set of Bridgestone S001 run-flat 225/45/19, found it a bit jumpy and harsh on rough surface, what do you have on yours?

Oh yea, it really sticks out in a good way. It's nice not having a color that emulates most cars on the road.

I have Pirelli P-Zero 225/40R20 runflat tires.

On rough roads, it can get a bit loud inside the cabin but overall, it's very similar to my 2007 E92, so I'm not really complaining.

It seems P-Zero is better tire, even with 20" and 40 still provide decent comfort to you.

It’s funny because we complain about noise but I feel totally isolated from the awesome sound of my engine and exhaust. I totally get it, just seems like the cool frequencies are dead.
