Silly levels of power with no drama. When you pushed that car, though, it did come alive and felt like it shrunk around you. Maybe when it warm up and you can get some heat in the tires this one will show that side of itself.
It is beautiful and I'm sure you'll appreciate the comfort side when you're commuting to work most days.
Congrats again. This is such a cool car.

There were a few small things that you could do with the E39 that radically tightened it up. None of them really solved the slopbox steering, though. If they'd sold it with a rack and pinion, I'd have one instead of the E90 today.
I still periodically wonder if I made the right choice though.
