Man I really don't like the weird sounds. I would say it sounds video-game-ish but it doesn't, it's worse. The way the short sound bite repeats rather than linearly building… it sounds like a racing game from the 90s. Glad you can turn them off.

The sounds are strange, and that's probably the least flattering light for Dravit.

I can imagine that's one fast feeling car, but I really struggle to get excited without the sounds of an old school engine. The word that strikes me is "efficient"

I'm really hating the dashboard cluster. I just can't do that.

So I played with it and I really like the Tanzanite II. I also like San Marino Blue, Velvet Blue and Venetian Violet.

If Venetian was an option in the standard colors, I might consider it. The fact that they offered Tanzanite as a standard (optional cost) color had me sold.

I also played with the interior. I chose cognac leather. So the only option for extended or full within the same color is Tartufo and I don't think it's worth it.

I would get the optional leather dash.

I also played with the trim and piano black would be nice but I went with carbon on my car

None of the personal options would be worth the coin for me. I think what they offered as standard selection was good.

The only thing I wish I could have is the real M seats.

So noting I really want to change on my car. I'll just keep it as is and wait until they build and ship it.

Each subsequent 0-60 was slower. Probably heat soaked.

he was flipping through the different drive modes in each subsequent run, just like the title states of the thread.

not heat soaked.

side note. LOVE how DCS/TCS was still engaging at 63kph on the first run and would still hit 0-100kph near BMW's quoted time

Yeah, nothing excites me about BMW's current lineup anymore, and my M4cs was far-fetched so to speak. The i4 M50 peaked my interest and I'm actually more excited about it than when I picked up my M4cs.
