New (sort of) and first M Car!

Hey everyone. Been a lurker on the forum since 2012 when I owned an X5 3.5i. I turned that car in off lease in May 2015 and purchased a Range Rover Sport. Long story short, loved the style and stance of that car, but all the electronic things in that car (nav, climate, touch screen, heated seats, digital dash) + the lethargic transmission frustrated the hell out of me. So, I fixed it and just took delivery (Sunday) of a 2017 Donington Grey X5M (driver assistance plus, B&O audio, Executive package, Apple Car Play, 21" wheels). Super happy with it so far. Maybe have "accidentally" exceeded 5k rpm during the break in

This is my first M car which checks a lifelong box.

It's definitely difficult to baby it when you get something new. Enjoy in good health and let me know if I can do anything for you.

Congrats! Identical to my '17 build. What interior did you go with?

And don't worry, you're not the only one who exceeded the 5k limit... I did a couple of time, unintentionally.

Enjoy!

I got the black extended leather. My heart wanted red, my 9 month old and his future spills said black
