Congrats and don't complain, I have just a 320 from 2009, so a 330 is way better, but never really cared about cars, I am and always have been a biker, a car acceleration is awesome, but nothing IMHO compared to going 265 km/h, my personal speed record, which is 165mph on a japanese bike, or just cruising on my Harley on small roads, straight highways are boring on Harleys for me, that for me is absolute happiness and joy, but I get that a cool car is great as well. Enjoy your new ride

Thanks Shannon, it's actually a tan color, I'll posts some pictures in a bit. I didn't really care for the leather color, but seeing as these e's aren't easy to come by, I took what I could get

Thanks Arnaud, I'm not a car guy either but I really have a thing for fuel savings, but wanted a nicer / quality ride. This seems to fit the bill

Thanks Nicholas, so far that's been the case!

Apparently it has a special fuel tank that is sealed to prevent evaporation as the fuel can sit for extended periods

Admittedly I'm not a gear head so I have no idea about performance and all of the that. I can say, the car is fun to drive and provides more than enough umph for me.
