Enjoy. I drive in adaptive drive most of the time. When you want more fun, throw the shifter to the left!

that's the one thing I didn't get, so I'm stuck between comfort and sport, with kids and wife I'm just on comfort basically all the time...

Enjoy it - great machine!! Have loved my G30 so far, my running joke with my salesman is that he now has to get something better to tempt me out of it!

I am sort of in the same spot. My loaded 530e is just 14 months old with 10K miles on it. GEICO is my insurance company so I have its mechanical brakedown insurance on my car which covers me to seven years, 100K miles on just about everything with a $250 deductible. Just costs me about $110/year.

I would be tempted by a M340i if I could get it with individual leather. As the years go by, I will have to see how BMW (and other car companies) can tempt me not to go the full seven years.

Same here. I don't see myself going back to a
3 series, not even the new G20.

The G30 is a very satisfying car, even with our "Base" 2 liter engine.

Actually the US got the 530D mislabeled as a 540D as a marketing ploy. Still a very nice ride.
