Just took delivery of my 435i xDrive

Hey guys, I just picked up my 435i last night. It's Alpine White exterior with Black Dakota leather inside. It has the Burl Walnut trim w/ chrome trim accents. It has nearly all available options. It has Premium, Executive, M-Sport, M Performance 1 & 2, Active LED Headlights, BMW Apps & Smoker's package (even though I don't smoke...). It came with the OEM 442m wheels on Bridgestones but I'm currently on my winter wheels which are Rial Comos (Cheap TireRack wheels) wrapped in Pirelli Sottozero III tires measuring 225/45/R18 all around.

I purchased the car from BMW Corporate in Toronto as a used demo w/600 kms. It probably wasn't driven really easily since the trip computer indicates 17 l/100 kms but I don't really mind that much.

First Impressions:
-The M Performance Exhaust sounds great and has no drone @ highway speeds
-The MPPK really sharpens the throttle and gives the car extra grunt
-The M Sport Brakes are much better in terms of feel & stopping power compared to pretty much any car I've owned.
-The Interior is a nice place to be but the build quality and materials aren't as nice as my F10 (to be expected)
-The car is WIDE (it takes you by surprise when trying to park it) and looks beautiful with the M Sport aero
-The N55 is a beautifully smooth and rev-happy engine especially when mated to a sport auto 8AT
-The DHP barely leans in corners in Sport & is really smooth in Comfort
-The Active LED Headlights are really bright & look beautiful

Here are some crappy phone pics (Better soon to come):

Me neither, I've just discovered how difficult it is to keep a white car clean with all the salt and sand stains that come from driving it. Still a trade-off I'm willing to make, however.
