The 5% is not so bad on the XM, except for the part that the side mirrors darken on their own. It would be perfect if they didn’t do that.
Can only do 50% on the fronts for the move back to the upper Midwest. They are pretty aggressive in pulling people over in the Twin Cities for “dumb” reasons.

It’s never been a problem for me in Texas, especially in Houston. Same with the front license plate. My dealership is usually pretty friendly with me regarding state inspections.

As you know, the City of Austin police aren’t as lenient.

Thinking of taking mine to Thunder Hill after the break in is done, how did the big girl treat you at the track? Any limp mode or break fade issues?

Picked up my XM base today. Replaced my Cayenne E Hybrid, will need to get through the 300 mile break in before I give any thoughts on power, how it compares driving wise. Interior in Silverstone/Vintage Coffee is gorgeous. Went with the 22” wheels, as I preferred the look of the wheel, really happy with how it came out.

Congratulations! Dravit was my original color choice for my XM, and Mamba Green was the color I wanted my Taycan in!

I’m looking forward to your review

Looks like Maxton.
Cheap ABS parts.
Some like it, I personally don’t.
Their product looks cheap IMHO.

Picked up a M3 CS the other week that my dealer has had sitting on the lot since early February. Was not expecting nor anticipated on grabbing this car but wow am I glad I did. Finally had a chance to get the two together and snapped a quick one.

It's a fun car. Very impressed with it so far, and as always, eager to get the break-in service done!
