I own several businesses in many states. I rarely spend more than 1 year at a residence. The freedom and flexibility to pack up and move anytime I'd like makes more sense for my lifestyle

Like a regular person might. LOL

If it helps, mines been stage 2 tuned since 30K miles as well with no issues. Probably close to 700hp at the crank. I have a stealth hitch installed and have towed my other vehicles and small uhaul enclosures when I move across country. I've NEVER done brakes on it yet, and was just told at my 70k mile service that they would be needed at my next service. It blows my mind that these have dropped so much in value with what an all around great machine it is. If anyone is looking for a capable and fun SUV I don't think there's a better bang for the buck out there. Get out there and enjoy it!

Looks great!

I simply won’t buy an M car without full leather, but I’m glad not everyone is stuck with it, since plenty of folks don’t prefer it.

I daily drive my 2022 X3MC. It has 24,000 miles. It is probably the nicest vehicle I have ever owned. FYI

Great story. And what a pretty color, overall very nice car. I stumbled across my E90 on a chevy dealer lot one day. Something’s are just meant to be.

Nice combo.
What do you guys think of Fiona red interior with this exterior color or other lighter variants (Laguna Seca Blue, Atlantis Blue and so on etc.).

I like it! Looking at some of the pics, I would say it is a metallic Laguna Seca Blue. I had an LSB, and it is nearly impossible to get a picture that reflects the real color of the car. You could hold your phone up to take a snap and the color it was displaying live on your phone was not even close to the color of the car.

Regardless of camera, it always made the car look bluer than it really was, but every so often a pic would sneak through under the right circumstances that let the real color show through.

To me, the pic of the door jam and one other pic really makes it look like LSB. I remember at one time on the build website it showed LSB as metallic and I asked if that was a mistake, as I had never heard anyone mention any such color. Maybe it wasn't a mistake, maybe no one ever ordered it so they renamed it

PPF the entire car(if it hasn’t been done already) you will thank me that’s the first thing I did on my 18M F85-Best investment and insurance policy I’ve ever done to a vehicle! Spectacular spec, gorgeous car I think we share taste when it comes to the interior. Mine has the same.😂🤙🏼
