"timeless" like you have less time to enjoy it because you spend all the time trying to make the color look clean?

I agree, great color on any BMW, but hard to maintain clean

I've had a few Bmw's in black sapphire and have always had the paint ceramic coated. I found it was no different to maintain than any other colour given I wash my cars every two weeks.

But I don't wanna take any risk so I will have the dealer run the code tomorrow to see what the problem is.

Overall the car itself was great. I'm very happy with the color choice of going Black Sapphire Metallic with Cognac as it is very subtle yet sleek. Haven't had the chance to experience the full potential of the almighty B58 but the power is definitely there when you need it.

With the 48V system auto start/stop becomes less noticeable and it is very smooth. The power gauge beneath the tachometer is something that takes a while to get used to but I tend to let the gearbox do the shifting in comfort mode so reading revs isn't necessary. If I do want to shift with paddles I'd just go into sport and everything returns to how it looks with the MY20 model. The exhaust is still as loud as the MY20, but I certainly noticed less pops and crackles. Don't know if that's going to change as I put more miles on it but for now I just want to enjoy this as my first car before anything goes wrong again. Hopefully it's nothing to worry about

Found a perfectly safe spot to park for the night and we'll see what the dealer has to say tomorrow.
Congratulations! Nice spec, not far off mine! Cognac with the oak is a very classy combo!
