1500 miles.....mileage keeps getting better !!! tons of torque, my wife loves it and she likes the HUD....
I'm planning on ordering a 2010 35D model next month. Out of curiousity, what kind of mileage are you actually getting?? I realy wanted the M package, but it looks like they don't offer it on the 35D.

The 4.8is was a great car also, being the older body style which is smaller on the inside and the nav screen was a problem in the sun,....but with the 315's on the rear and the 285's up front it did handle well. it was an 5200 lb car and still had great pick-up. . The 09 35d is a different animal, power is more gradual NO turbo lag but there is a one second low power window, not a lag, but lower power than when the 1st turbo kicks in.....then it all torque from the bottom to the top...pulls like it is being towed by a dragster....and it to is 5200 lbs, approx. handles well, I got rid of the Run Flats as soon as we got home they road like steel wheels way too stiff...put on Michelin Latitudes GREAT tires 1200.00 mounted and balanced NTB...I did order the car with the optional 19" wheels....very nice and i bought a compact spare from BMW for it in case of a flat , it fits in the wheel well as BMW intended to sell a spare option ONLY in Europe. . .It does handle well, no wavering solid to the ground, tracks well, very comfortable and can't wait to take it on a long trip....oh and the nav. is awesome as the hud is a nice touch....i got the custom seats in the nappa leather, tinted the two front windows, got a bra put on, 3m...I did put nice window rain gutters on, smoked and the type that pop in the window channel...look very concealed...
We really haven't driven it much 1500 miles, I just dumped the oil and filter as BMW doesn't want it till 12k miles max. or when it deems it ready to change the oil from the usage it gets...oh and it has winter mat for year around , I find them the best at keeping it clean...
