Its a 40i. Had F15 30d before which was a well equipped car with m performance engine upgrade and few other mods. Miss a few things from the F15 such as the sunglasses holder, alcantara headliner plate when sunroof is closed, true adaptive LED lights which were fun to observe on long rides and freakin normal mid rear seatbelt buckle for the dog (weird that I would be missing so much stuff). Ranting above (have nowhere else to rant). Still the 40i is amazing.

Yes. I’m annoyed that we can’t get that 2 time here in the US. My wife’s 21 45e has it and I love it.

The middle rear seat buckle is non standard and different than all the others (not the case in F15). So no dog buckle will click in the middle. I found a solution (on this forum) where I will need to anchor the dog leash in the middle. Dog has an open soft “box”, given our numbers someone has to sit in the middle rear and I am told its very uncomfortable, much less comfortable than F15 or E71 with 5 seat option, especially on longer journeys.

thanks, buckle and latch in the middle seat is different so users don't mix the latches. I usually pull down one of the back seats and have our dog lay flat next to whomever is in the back. I latch her leash to the hooks either on back of seat or one of the ones in the cargo area.

Brooklyn Grey. Thank you very much. I like those wheels so much that I bought them separately for the winter staggered setup (they did not come with the car in my case). Sourcing the winter tires for them was difficult due to availability (and they need the star marking as the dealer otherwise voids warrantly - dealer was/is explicit about that).
