Having had the car 10 days and put 700 miles on her, I am baffled with the Harmon Kardon sound system. This is the worst sound system I have ever owned and it definitely is a downgrade from the F80 and F80 CS. The worst is I had an X7 loaner while my CS was in the shop (road debris damaged my bumper, thanks NYC) for a month and the sound system comparatively speaking is very poor.

The manual is starting to break in and get smoother. The car launches night and day better from the F80 and you can dump the clutch as high as 4k rpms and still grip almost immediately. The rear differential has none of the "clunky" sounds the F80 had on hard and sudden acceleration. The seats are amazing, they just take some getting used to. I am now reconsidering my decision to drive the car down the VA. I can absolutely sit in this car for extended periods of time without issue. I was in the car for 3 hours straight the other day with no issues.
