I love it, super glad with the options I chose. The only thing I regret is not opting for the Drive Assist Package. I let one of my buddy with a 22' M340 drive it and he said my car has less roll around corners because I got the Dynamic Handling package with adaptive dampers where he doesn't have those. Going to try one out soon so I can confirm if that is true. iDrive 8 is great, having the climate controls through the screen isn't a big deal as I find I rarely have to adjust it. And as you can see in the photo below, I am making the most of my charging at home and work when I can. Love this thing.

Did you get the HK system? If so, how is it?

I didn't opt for Premium Package or HK, decided I would be happier with the BavSound upgrade if I decide I need it. Might do that over the winter, not impressed by the HiFi system but it's not the worst.

My 2023 330e is in "Ready for Transport" status. I got 3.69% rate lock for 60 months from my bank BofA in the Bay Area, California. I doubt BMW Finance can match that.

I know some local credit unions may offer slightly lower rates, but even 0.50% lower rate will only reduce my monthly payment by less than $10. So I don't think it's worth for me to look for "better" rate by letting others to run my credit check. And my previous experiences with local credit unions always had some "catch", such as requiring to open direct-deposit or something.

When my car arrives, I'll just let BMW Finance to match or beat my locked rate. If they can't, I'll just go with my BofA offer.

Oh damn... sorry to hear that dude. One of my buddies with an i4 on order that just hit the ground says he has stop sale on his now too. So many cars are going to be grounded until this fix comes in November now. Really bad timing.
