Great review. At least u nvr try to match up an M4 like some golf idiots on the road and focus on the review 👍. Yes wonderful comfort n enough acceleration.

Thanks for the support!

The Singapore version is a strip down version and don’t make any value at all to choose. It doesn’t even have adaptive cruise control or a sunroof and rear air con control ..

[@roadpilgrim]

Fair point. It reflects in the price though. Cars in the same segment that have all those things cost about $40-$50k more. So I think it’s correlated. Essentially, I don’t think BMW is shortchanging anybody.

Is the i5 footwell shallower as compared to ice 5.
As that is the case for i4 to ice 4 version.

[@roadpilgrim]

There are no official dimensions that reflect the depth of the footwell - but yes, I believe that it is a smidge shallower.
