Good to hear. Yes its Dravit Grey with visibility and comfort as you mention. I almost went down the X3 route too but just couldnt get used to the experience - too high, felt like a boat and coming from an F32 428i MSport Coupe, I just couldnt do it. I was very close to getting a G20 sedan and when I took the test car back to the dealer, I saw the Touring... that was it and decided that was the car.

Such a big leap forward from the F series and they were/still are great. G series is punchier at low revs, bumps are bit sharper even in comfort mode but could be the runflats - overall ride quality is better however. Steering has a nicer feel too.

The in-car tech has been flawless (including CarPlay) but the connected services were hit and miss - more miss. The car was delivered with SW 07/2019.28 and the vehicle location and 3D view never worked. I think lock/unlock/light flash did work sporadically but gave up on it. I booked the car in today for a software update to 11/2019.40 and everything is working as it should. Service description notes 'reprogrammed vehicle and telematics module'.

Still havent seen one the road in Sydney. Granted its not like I drive all over the city for a living - I'm sure they're out there! I have caught some heads turning though and many have commented positively on Dravit Grey. I don't think people are used to seeing too many Tourings around ... even previous models were scarce.

Overall am loving the car and look forward to driving it every time.
