Not sure of all the specifics being discussed, but GoodYear F1s are far beyond 'crap'.I've run quite a few sets of those on another car..and the only brand that can give it a run are Michelins PSS.....

Yup. And the two cables are Anker PowerLine+ (nylon-braided) cables. Highly recommend their Lightning / Micro USB cables haha

Looks great inside and out, the blue stitching is a nice touch.

I've been hearing the Dakota leather is nicer on this new model but it looks the same ole same ole to me...hard as a rock. Would definitely opt for Nappa.

My thoughts exactly at first. The Dakota leather on my 2014 335i is not soft at all; quite the opposite actually. But they've done something different with the Dakota on the new 5 Series. It's actually super soft

How's the gesture control? Functional and fun or ridiculous and fun?
