Finally Over

Mattl0806 · 03-31-2023, 01:53 PM

For those of you who have agonized along with me and think I’m crazy, I finally pulled the trigger.

2022 9500 miles. CPO.
Tanzanite
Exec package
DAP
Climate

Absolutely love the color especially when it is overcast.

The dealer gave me an amazing value on my trade in. Significantly higher than anywhere else and I paid them 80.6 for this:

Congrats! She looks beautiful and will need more pics! Time to update that profile description now

Mattl0806 · 03-31-2023, 02:06 PM

Thanks! I’ll definitely post more when I get it even more cleaned up!

Not complete roses ahah

Question for everyone.

I cannot link the bmw app on my phone bc the car will not open the message the phone sends. The message appears in notifications but you click it and it doesn’t open. Nothing happens.

Anyone have a fix for this?

fan25 · 03-31-2023, 02:22 PM

Wow! Tanzanite is rare. Congratulations

sarafil · 03-31-2023, 02:34 PM

Congrats, looks great!

rundeyvoo · 03-31-2023, 02:43 PM

Congrats! That tanzanite blue is so nice

Mattl0806 · 03-31-2023, 02:47 PM

Thanks everyone. Love the color. Prior owner did ceramic tints as well. I think the darker windows really compliment the color and shadowline trim.

Thats such a great color

TurtleBoy · 03-31-2023, 02:55 PM

Congratulations! That is a weight off of our shoulders.

Seriously though - good luck, enjoy and be safe.

Lovely car!

Try a iDrive reboot, search on the forums but I think if you hold the power/volume button in for 90 seconds, the system will reboot 3 times and let go when it starts loading the third time and try again!

How did you put that dent in it already?

eelnoraa · 03-31-2023, 03:46 PM

Congrats!!!

This is an M50i, right?

It's a crime to brag about your vehicle and only post one pic. We need more

I know! I should have done more today.
So far happy with the decision tho.

Don’t want to continue bragging but - Only downside was trading a 3.5 month old car for 17 month old car. Otherwise, for my taste, the m50i over m550 was definitely the right choice. In addition to the more space, more utility, higher ride height, a little more comfort…. I find the m50 to have much more of a presence on the road than the m550 - maybe bc it’s bigger - not sure but I like it!
