New M35i today....nice

Love the car, love the sound, but I have to figure out something for the seat. Although I am not overweight, I am wider than the German physique, and the left seat bolster hits me mid under thigh. Ideas?

I think it’ll only be a problem on long trips, which I think I can solve with memory foam.

I have the same issue. I have made it better by adjusting the tilt, but I still have to remember to move around a bit on long drives so I don't end up with hamstring pain.

They are a blast to drive, enjoy. I am almost 2 years in and still love the car. Great color, do you have the m-sport seats or the standard ones? Tilt helps and I know I can widen my side bolsters a little

Good luck and have fun and of course stay safe

Std seats,proper tilt does help, need to drive it more to see how much of a problem this will be......the side bolsters are no problem, I fit fine....

I'm tall and have found that moving the seat forward, so my knees are slightly more bent, helps with the thigh contact. Frankly, I wish the seats did not have that sliding "support" at the front edge. That's where my issue is.

Great color choice

This color in the direct sun is absolutely stunning
The detail:
No polish/clay step, car had perfect paint on delivery
Full rinseless wash with Ech02
Full wipe down with alcohol/water
Two coats of Blackfire SI02 ceramic spray
Extra coat on front and rear with 303 Graphene spray
Wheels sealed with Blackfire Hydroseal, black magic on tires
