Took Delivery on July 3rd

Recently took delivery of a beautiful Dark Graphite 35i with Ivory/Black interior. Pictures really do not capture how stunning this color is in person (yes I am biased )

Very very long story but I ended up having to reorder my X5 with a different dealership after my first order was shipped to NY instead of being scheduled for PCD. Needless to say, I still did not get an opportunity to do PCD because I was told the earliest delivery date would be production end + 2 weeks and I had been in a rental since May.

Well worth the wait though. Very refined vehicle and a big difference b/n the '14 and my previous '03.

About 150 miles from the dealership I purchased the car from to my home. After taking delivery and driving home there was noticeable burning smell being emitted from the car when I parked in the garage. I was careful to keep the RPMs down during the trip too. Source of the smell is not known at this time. Smelt it again on day 2 but not as strong. Have not smelt it since.

Excited to have a car again
