FYI. I finally got mine delivered today. Ironically my wife driving me to the dealer, and had an accident sideswiping the entire passenger side of her new X4. Feel so bad for her, but she totally fine and so happy all are well and the damage is just the car.

Jesus. We can't catch a break. Glad to hear she is OK.

Enjoy your new car. Let me know if you're affected by the airbag recall.

My delivery will likely be pushed 1 maybe even 2 months

Meanwhile my friend ordered a Tesla model 3 performance 2 weeks ago and already has it lol.

Yes I know. But she is ok. Car out of commission for 3 weeks.

I have no recalls on mine.

1-2 months??? Wow. Hope they will compensate you or you get the wheels sooner than that.

Take care.

Yes, it does. The owner can select the duration. (It doesn’t always work, but it usually does.)

Yes and seems to work well. I also like the automatic lock and unlock as you get away from or approach the car.

For what its worth, my wife just purchased the exact same colour scheme and she has been getting lots of positive feedback. Some have been apprehensive at first but it definitely grows on you. I'm too weak to go anything other thank black on the interior.
Anyways she loves her machine and I hope you have a great time with yours too!
