ok... This is day2 so don't have a lot of experience yet, but here are my first thoughts. (Disclaimer 2 - I am no race car driver, I am just your ordinary Joe enjoying an extraordinary car)

So, first and forth most ... LOVE the color. The Orange is sooo much more brilliant in real life. It is actually more orange in real life. When people say they could not capture the real color in photo, now I understand what they are saying.

Secondly, I haven't really had a chance to drive it, but the manual transmission is great. The rev matching is bugging me a bit but should adjust. The standard <edit> suspension </edit> is actually much better than the E46 I had and makes the ride much better. I don't know what y'all are talking about, the interior is beautiful. Yeah, it may not be plutonium grade plastic, but still I don't think it looks cheap. Lastly, I am still (of course) in the break in period, so I have to hold myself from going all out. But the car actually WANTS to go ... and I have to be the mature one to hold both of us back. This car wants to fly.

That's all for now. Let me drive it more and see how my love changes. But right now, honeymoon baby!!

Finally! Congrats man.
I have to restrain myself as well. I hate break in periods. But I love the car so far as well!
Enjoy man!!

Did you get your little tray that goes over the cup holders?
I didn't
I'm going back today to ask about it. I hope they find me one.

Congrats. I think you are the 2nd person with that combo in Canada. Looks like you got sunroof?

I agree with your observations as well.

Yes. There's a little tray that sits on top of the cup holders to hide them. I picked mine up yesterday from the dealer.

Very nice! I love the colour combination

By the way, you'll get used to the rev-matching and grow to like it since it works going up and down. I find it particularly nice when I want to make severe gear changes - like going from 6th to 3rd (although I wouldn't recommend doing that due to the rev changes it could bring on).

So is it an accessory or does it come with the car?? But if you want to use the cup holder you will have to remove the tray and put it somewhere?? Kind of inconvenient for me.

It's good, just that I like to be in gear while feet is on the clutch for Neutral, so it auto rev my car without it actually being engaged.

It comes with every new "M".

Apparently there is a spot in the glove box for it. I haven't check yet because I don't want anyone drinking or eating in my "M"!

Ok, more update. I played with the throttle last night. WoW, this car can really go and can very easily get me into some deep $*^& with the cops. Here are my thoughts...

Efficient - Cruising with Miss. Daisy
Sport - Driving like John Travolta in Grease
Sport Plus - "You wanna get nuts? Let's get nuts!!" (Michael Keaton, Batman 1989)

Love the car so far. Also, just wondering, does any other people's M3 / 4 has the compass on their rear view mirrior? I don't have one there? Also, I need to try to get a tray from my rep... hehe

I don't have it. I think it could either be because I don't have connecteddrive or because I don't have home link (garage opener) buttons that comes with that rear view mirror.

If anyone needs that tray, they can have mine. My car is coffee zone. I just would love to have that stuff banned from the vehicle completely, but I'm making the rules, and that one apparently is not getting in.
