Yesterday, we took supply of my spouses 2024 iX xDrive 50. We severely thought of a 2024 X5 50e, which IMHO, is vastly improved in comparison with the 45e we check drove final yr. Nonetheless, on the finish of the day, we didnt wish to revert again to ICE/PHEV after having fun with my spouses VW ID.4. I gotta say, the ID.4 was implausible, and its what began the entire BEV expertise for us. We took possession of the ID.4 final Nov 2022, and by Jan 2023, I bought my 2022 M4Cx for my 2023 i4 M50. Undecided Ill ever return to ICE, however that M2CS is wanting fairly good!
Anyway, after bailing on our customized order 50e, my supplier was capable of find an iX that match our desires from a supplier a number of states away. Sport and 22 have been non-negotiables for me (I imply my spouse, proper?! Lol), and this automobile simply bought off the boat final week. We actually lucked out. The paint is in terrific form. I used to be frightened the automobile had been sitting on lots amassing chicken droppings, but it surely actually is minty contemporary!!
We havent achieved a lot driving with the iX. Like all the time, I informed the supplier to not wash, prep, and even stare on the paint for concern of receiving no-charge swirls. So Ive been busy doing a bit of element myself. I additionally did a fast reflector delete with some left over vinyl I had laying round, and it got here out nice. Im too low-cost for IND painted reflectors. Phrase to the clever nevertheless, I sadly managed to scrap a bit of little bit of paint round my rear proper passenger purple reflector. Not likely noticeable, simply appears like some residual wax, however I used to be saddened to see it given my OCD. Different mods within the works, tint the entrance home windows and black out rear emblems. Im not likely into modding, however I believe these would enhance the look a bit.
General, we’re happy with the automobile, and fingers crossed that its simply as dependable as my i4 has been (and even our earlier ID.4). Nonetheless working my manner round idrive 8.5
