G31 owners show your wagons

Thought I’d start a thread for us G31 owners to post up pics of our wagons & have a friendly chat.

Let's see those Wagons!!

I bought my G31 last August, it’s a 2018 Champagne Quartz Metallic (Beige) 540ix Msport with AC Schnitzer aero, exhaust & sound pipe. It’s also been remapped & eats F82 M4’s in a straight line
It’s got adaptive suspension, pan roof, adaptive LED’s, cognac leather with burled walnut trim & comfort massage seats

I grew up with wagons and have never been a fan... until NOW! I REALLY want a 5-series wagon. A friend bought a 3_series wagon and that thing is nice. Unfortunately, without the 5 goodies.

If someone from the owners of the touring is relevant, then here is the info on the rear fenders. They do not fit from a sedan, I personally checked different attachment points. There are part numbers 51777433129 and 51777433130 for cars for the Japanese market. Apparently, I did something wrong during installation or they were bent during transportation, but they turned out to be somehow small.

I recently started using Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions ceramic shampoo, spray on ceramic wet wax & their ceramic wax polish, very impressed with the results.
