200km thoughts

Done about 200km so far, I already have complaints..
The car is too hot and the aircon is useless. I have it in 17 degree and I should be a frozen ham by then... but it refuses to do a job for me while the sun is shining into the car alright. I need to tint the window soon. But what it really annoys me is under my right foot. I start to get annoyed by the gap before the throttle gets to open the butterfly in the throttle body . The cure will be a sprint booster and I have to get one soon because I have been burning wheels on my Japan made 4WD because its throttle is designed for a much lighter footed Japanese.
Some absolute positives...
The car looks heaps good in white . I promised myself to get white only from now on. I reserved my love on the look before I ordered the car, but now it grew on me. Love the red leather. It is just special. Even tempted to get an OSIM message chair because it is similar red leather trimmed  I have been in the discovery mode in the car in the last 2 days. There are so many gadget buttons in the car. I eventually found all the buttons in the seat and now lock in my position. Found that the memory function extends to the mirror settings, it is a surprise for me. Mirrors also go down when reversing... I don't need it but it is nice. The auto gearbox is as fast as I remember and in slow speeds it is as good as PDK. Honest. Going down a gear is definitely slower though. Just drive in DS mode if you are in a hurry then.
Booked in for UV shield window film installation from stealership Tuesday week.. it will looks 10 degree cooler inside and hopefully 20 inside

TAKA-1 arrived

After a long wait the car has eventually arrived. Look at the black grill I asked the dealer to install for me. It looks so nice with the white background. The wheel is clean for now but already gathering brake dust after a 30km drive today.

You can see Leah my dealer lady on the phone selling cars!~

I also received a delivery gift. I asked if there were any freebies. So there it is. It is low quality fabric but there is an alloy wheel like wheelie wheel… and a BMW badge.

 

Then we set the kids seats. See Hung has a new harness in my car. They quickly went asleep as the car is quiet.

Finally I took some pictures of the portable sat nav, which is just a re-batched Garmin Nuvi. It is rather nice coz it is a word recognition model, so it was about $700 2 years ago when we got our old Garmin. It now prob not worth much. It is bluetooth able too, but the car has voice recognition phone system and it works well. I even dial home by calling the number using voice only.

  

More photos in good location soon.

 

The car has arrived at stealership

I went to the dealership today and check out my babe.

Love at first sight…… it looks bigger in the photo. It is realistically tiny in real life.

Perhaps the only time I will see it silver.

Red leather stands out heaps. The “P” on the left side means priority . I am pushing them for Tuesday delivery. Let's hope. The top left corner label has my surname on it. So it is my car .

 

Notice one thing very interesting. Red interior matches with red wiper rubber . I love BMW. I did the same to my old Integra R
