I'll be waiting out first MY this time around. I had one of the first E82 135 produced. It was in the shop every other month, twice towed. That experience made me despise an otherwise terrific car. The bugs and rattles were sorted by 2nd year of ownership but my relationship with the car was tainted at that point. Fortunately, i got plenty of seat time with other models, confirming the smaller variants are my preference.
Let's not kid ourselves, sure it's built on M135i but it's still a new model, very likely new engine management and mechanic bits.
But really, it'll be great. You guys should get one right away...share some photos
