Looks good. Got mine last month. Dravit Grey looks very similar to yours.

It was actually delivered in June not July. Time flies when you are enjoying the car. Anyway, I ordered it on May 12 and it went into production 5/13. It was delivered on June 27th. I was told it would take 2 months but it was much sooner than we thought. I must have got lucky and ordered it right as a Dravit Grey production was starting.

That's similar to my Dravit Gray. Ordered the last weekend of February and it arrived on April 19.

Wow that was fast, my car arrived about 2 weeks ahead of schedule. I was thinking that my car would
get caught in vacation, as Germany takes time off in August. The factory closes or production is reduced

Yeah was kinda bummed at that. Told the dealer specifically not to put on front plate. But when it was delivered he was not there . Was able to get discount on extended warranty and some Bmw goodies. Now come the mods, I want to have it for a week or so to see what I want. The cf mirror caps were done at port
Why buy the extended warranty? I have always heard, even from owners of car dealerships, never buy the Extended Warranty.

Are you having any trouble with the Connected App?
I have a Samsung Galaxy S9 and at first didn't have "climatize" (remote start on iPhone) ability on the app, but was available on my wife's iPhone. Then BMW did an Andoid app update around Aug 1st and the climatize/remote start function became available. But the last few days, the climatize and remote 3D view have not been working for me or on my wife's iPhone.

I haven't found a way to deactivate auto headlights. I guess it's like the car automatically starting in comfort mode with auto shut off activated. Annoying.

It’s interesting visors in 330i don’t extend maybe because Canadian version? These guys always test visors as part of the reviews. It starts around 7:00.

The visors do extend, I have it on mine.

Just a note, StraighPipes were filming in Portugal for the launch of the new G20 3-Series, so some things during that time were pre-production.

maybe since that is a 2019 model in the review, they added the sliding visors for the 2020 model, which is what I have

so update. so far.love the car just over 1000 miles. comfortable even in sport plus which i drive in mostly. you are going faster than it feels which is good and bad. the up coming M3 will no doubt have sharper handling. i wish mine was a bit sharper in sport plus. milage is good for new car about 23 mpg mixed driving in sport plus mostly.
so i am writing this at the dealership where my car is taking care of a software glitch in the idrive 7. last week it just dumped my profile and i do not have any of my connected app functions . i can not wven log back into my profile. there is supposed to a be a software upgrade for this but i hope that is the only problem. very frustrating to me for a 70k car to have these issues. i see a lot of similar things with idrive 7 cars. when it was working it was very nice
