Coming from 3 X5 (40d)this makes them feel really slow
So pleased with my colour combination

Lots of toys to play with too

Beautiful! That interior is nice! I saw it in person on an X4 and it was great. Excellent quality Merino! Enjoy!

Congrats! Love this interior, same as mine except over Pythonic. Also, love the trim you selected. I went with the grey poplar.

What code did you specify on the ordering sheet to get that cool wrong-side steering wheel? :-)

300: the only color a G01 M40i should come in.

Congrats!

That's a great looking car X5MSD!! I'm not brave enough to have gone for that interior - it looks great.

As for the snap crackle and pop, has anyone with MY2019 car with more miles confirmed that the exhaust does pop like the MY2018 cars?

Looks amazing. Interior looks excellent - I would have probably changed the wood to something else, but that's just because I'm weird about how brown works with other colors, and this isn't about me.

The red really is super crazy in the best way possible.

There will never be any pops and crackles on the petrol particulate models due to the PPF and associated map.

congrats on the purchase, mine finally has a twin!

I read that a few UK M40i owners reported the pops and bangs had gotten better over time, despite the filter. So just be patient if you have not put in some mileage in your car already.

Several of us in US (myself included) also experienced the exhaust sounds better and created more pops after a 'break in' time of several thousand miles. For example, I could hear some mild pops even in Comfort mode (3700 miles).
