The eagle has landed.....well the M4 anyway

Never test drove one, just bought it
Definitely nice to drive. Didn't know how to unlock the door when I had it in drive so I had to reach across when stopping and picking up the SO
Have to learn a lot more about all the options it has, but it sure gets up on the freeway nicely.

No harm in that. I did the very same thing. Two phone calls and a fax and the car was delivered to me.

To this day, I have no regrets whatsoever.

Same here, never drove one before. Barely knew anything about it, went out to dealer and said yes, I want it. No regrets at all.

None of us first allocation people were able to test drive either and I'm pretty sure we all loved our cars. Sometimes you just have to pull the trigger!

Now that I have been driving my SO around for a few months I must say that the AY does not look bad at all. Not sure I would be brave enough to pick one up, but I think that the color looks good on the car

I told my CA I wanted to do a test drive so I could try the DCT. Sounded like a good excuse, because its not like I wasn't going to like the car.

Looks great and congrats!
