Picked it up a couple weeks back. Pictures show winter 20" Pirelli Scorpions. The rear entertainment is excellent. Happy to answer any questions.

I ordered same exterior in a 35d. Also chose the pure wood trim, but went with the Mocha Nappa Leather and the B&O sound system. How do you like the suspension?

Congrats and nice ride. I'm glad I'm not alone with Rear entertainment. 20" looks nice. I actually like the Xline 20's more than the Msport 20s. Cheers!

Congrats.. Looks great. I'm thinking to get black saphire with black Dakota or ivory with black. But with all the jeans stain comment I'm reading, a little hesitatant to get white. What's your opinion? Also is the dynamic damper worth it? Can you explain what it does? Thanks

i'm considering a very similar build to yours, which looks great btw. same question - do you find yourself worrying about keeping the ivory clean? Did you consider a mocha interior? i think luxury line dark graphite with the 20's is the best looking combo available, just a question of which interior to get. No active steering? The X5 i drove without active steering took way too much effort to park.

Looks awesome - congrats! I've got a 50i xLine in the same color on order, and you just sold me on the wheel upgrade

Couple of questions:

1. Is the wood trim "textured" or flat? Could you shoot some closer pictures?
2. Why did you decide on the ivory dakota/black over the ivory nappa?
3. Did you have chance to try the difference between the full Dynamic Handling pack and the air suspension + DDC?

I think that's Canberra, much less yellow/much more white than the beiges in the E70.

I have it in mine - I like it a lot.

Edit: took a closer look. That's ivory.

Looks awesome!

beautiful! Congrats...

[chrisny]

Gorgeous. Perfect color with those wheels. Congrats!

[gblansten]

That's spectacular.

The suspension withe sport/comfort/eco comfort are perfect. I like the sport mode best as it very tight. The most interesting discovery of this car is how quiet it is.

[huntington]

I ordered the Ivory because it just looks perfect. I paid $400 for a seat treatment with a warranty. If at the end of my 36 months lease it looks bad they will replace the seat. So far so good.

The wood is textured. Hard to get a photo to show it well but it looks great.Not cheap looking at all. I ordered the ivory/black as the carpet will show less dirt in black and the rubber mats blends perfect (I am in Colorado). Very happy with this choice.

[huntington]

I discovered something interesting regarding wheels. In the luxury package if you order 19" wheels you don't get the slight flair around wheel wells in same color. With 20" on luxury line (mine) you get a slight flair but not as exagerated as the M sport 20". They really paid attention to detail here.

Lovely, hard plastic on back of front seats matches the front, Ivory.
Looks perfect. Most have two tone of colors, to me not so nice looking.
Good planning.

Looks great - love the color - congrats!

Good point - the Mocha has black seat backs - kinda annoying ....

I have spent SO MUCH TIME trying to build the right car. Your color combination is precisely what I want (I have a 2011 dark graphite 535 now with black interior and M package). However, they do not offer M package in dark graphite. What made you decide on Luxury Line vs XLine?

Thanks!!

Nice ride man, very well appointed! I love the look of the ivory interior when new, very classy. I was just worried about stains and the blue dye from jeans.
