This is my favorite color right now. But it's not offered in any car that I would get.
(Cars that I'm considering are: M340i, 540i M Sport, M550i, X3 M40i)

Hmmm...looks like EB2 that has faded in the sun or heavily processed in Instagram

Nice to see more colours though - SMB is the best though, so blue it just pops out and grabs you by the neck

They should pay OP for advertising.

I'd never accept a car with that on the rear.
I agree 👍 I always tell my dealer do not stick nothing to the car 😠 The license plate holder I immediately change myself upon delivery

I've already have had some issues in the first 24 hours, all of which have to do with Connected Drive
-Not all features of Connected Drive were on initially. I had to go into the settings to turn on the Remote 3D View and "Hello BMW" functions. Both are now working. But the app itself last updated the car's current status and location a few days ago.
-Profiles is something that my wife and I both use for when we switch cars. Apparently, profiles are now linked to the Connected Drive account...we're still trying to get that setup
-Apple CarPlay: My iPhone's connection kept dropping repeatedly during the drive home and would require me to turn off/on the Bluetooth radio in order to re-connect. Eventually, I deleted the iPhone from the BMW and re-paired, and it has been flawless since *fingers crossed*
I've had my G20 330i since the 25th of May, and Connected Drive isn't working correctly either. Mine hasn't updated since 5/31.. I lose wireless CarPlay 30-40% of the time and have to turn off/on Bluetooth to get it to work. Gotta love first year issues of a new generation. :-(

One other issue I'm having is the sunroof is bunching up and catching on the track. It will have to go in for that eventually it appears.
I don't think this is first year issues, nor unique to the G20's. I have a 2018 F80 and it too looses wireless connection with Connected Drive often. I don't have Carplay, but I do have an iPhone. So I suspect likely an iOS update screwed things over, as it worked flawlessly for more than a year.

BTW, enjoy the car OP!

There won't be a license plate holder on there, or I'm not taking delivery.

Fortunately, the state of Texas banned having items that cover the license plate in any way (presumably to prevent covers that may block radars /lidar /photo cameras and dealers immediately stopped applying their holders in order to comply with the law. Awesome side benefit.

This was the exact car and color I was thinking when I first saw Blue Ridge Metallic on the BMW configurator. In reality, Blue Ridge is several shades darker than Gray Green.

I took the stickers off right after I snapped the pictures in the garage. Plate frames will also come off when I get the permanent plates (I don't mind keeping it on to protect the paper plate atm).

Sure, I haven't had a chance due to the lousy weather here but give me a day (hoping for sunshine tomorrow).

Yeah, I'm still having the issue with the Connected Drive app not updating status. Sigh...

As for CarPlay, I also had that issue but think I fixed it. Try deleting your iPhone from the devices list in your car, then when you re-pair make sure to select the car from the Bluetooth menu on your iPhone. In other words, don't select the iPhone from the iDrive screen. I did that and haven't had a single issue since *fingers crossed*

I could car less about the plate holder. That's easy. 2 screws.

I was talking about this.
