* Top down = sound + smells: rubber, oil, & in Cali, wild sage & pine; I'll likely never buy a car for the track again as, for me, the experience is much less ... though I'll rent them for, say, the 'ring or whatever

* Top down anger driving with a heavy roof in the booty is fun as hell; completely ridiculous on a track but on a road course hairpin hangin that ass out is majestic

There doesn't seem to be many better places to drive on Earth than the Santa Cruz mountains ...


Back on topic, that 2018 has no touchscreen & no iDrive7 ... that sure doesn't mean nobody should care, especially in an X5, but I think it does mean that, broadly, 99% of prospective used buyers won't care and certainly used car flippers won't.
