My friends,
I picked up my F10 yesterday. I ordered the car 21st of july so I had to wait a few months.
Today, I took it for a nice little trip across the border (500 km) and I did some quick cornering and about 180-190 km/h on the Autobahn.
Although I was a bit careful with the brand new engine (low revs, never full throttle), my first impression of the car is very clear:
This car is magnificent and way, way better than both my e92s (330d & 335d).
Handling and steering, punch of the diesel engine is like a dream.
Obviously I read some negative magazine reviews and complaints about the steering, but I think I hit the right configuration:
- Carbon Black 535d
- 8 speed sport auto
- M sport package without the M sport suspension
- Adaptive drive
- Integral active steering;
- 19” M sport wheels (got the wintertyres already: Pirelli Runflats)
- Schnitzer lowering set (30 mm drop, IMO essential for the looks and a more sporty ride)
I will get back later to you guys with my thoughts on the ride. For now, here are some pix I took today:
Cheers, E.
