My new G90 MBB first impressions

Took delivery of the car today. Very happy with the result and the choice of colors (MBB/Silverstone). The car has much more presence in real life than in the photos. I haven't pushed it yet, of course, as it's only the beginning of the break-in period, but you can see straight away that the throttle response is incredible. You can feel the car planted firmly on the road, and its reactions are direct. I didn't feel the excessive weight of the car, It's the dimensions you need to get used to at first.

I'm adding this photo which shows the color outdoors, in the sun, rather than indoors.

Looks great! I have a feeling this generation doesn’t require as much lowering as previous generations! Very beautiful, enjoy!

I think the car's fender lip, above the wheels, is the thinnest of any BMW model. This helps make the car appear lower.

Agree on the side profile and front but rear is too high. And wheels are way too tucked in so need spacers

I think it's due to the shape of the rear bumper, but also to the fact that the diffuser is black. we see it less clearly than the top part.
