Joined the club, got my first M / Family car

new2the3 · 12-25-2019, 06:50 AM

My wife and I got our new family car last night, which also happens to be our first M.

Loving the handling, acceleration (from above 2500rpm), and exhaust sound. Cold start in sport plus is surprisingly loud. In cabin sound is just right in sports plus mode. The other modes are a little too quiet. The ride is firm but not unpleasant. On smooth roads it's really comfortable, even in sport. On crappy roads the bumps are more noticeable but it's not jarring at all, so far very pleased. Interior leather quality seems very high. I'm also happy I have the mobility kit and not the spare, trunk space is a meaningful improvement for me.

Beautiful indeed. The Mustang and the 911 aren’t bad either!.

The 911 turbo is stunning, but those are my neighbor's cars. I wish I had that classic.
