- Rear Entertainment shown
- Because it has been in BMW Welt for a month or more, this is likely a pre-production model, but still, as a MY2021 it DOES have both Auto Start/Stop OFF and Eco Pro buttons
- Similarly, volume knob also in crystal
- Standard "M50i" illuminated door sills. I would have expected something unique to Dark Shadow
- Still don't know how I feel about the combo of the black wood w/aluminum inserts, and piano black trims.
- Still don't know how I feel about the black and blue leathers, but think they're nice, at a minimum.

All in all it’s a win with the RES but I agree the mixed interior trim is a odd choice. I think all piano lacquer would have looked more upscale and just cleaner. Why no black exterior badges???
