Well I did it.
Went in and bought a 2017 BMW 540i today. It's Alpine white with the ivory interior. Pictures coming later. Has 48k on it. Kept the truck, as I could never bring myself to part with it.
So far this thing is pretty neat. Has 90% of what I wanted feature-wise, i got the ventilated seats, but was unable to get the adaptive cruise control. Has HUD, parking assist, most of the safety nannies, etc.
I'll try to keep using my turn signals as long as I can.

also is it x-drive? either way def look into the JB4 piggyback tune, and possibly an intake too for letting out some turbo sounds haha

Overall I paid less for this car than I did for my truck, but it's gonna be this one that makes me feel awkward to tell people about. I'm sure it will cost me more than the truck in the long-run though.
I'll get pictures later.

I know you had a Ford Fusion some time ago. Did you trade it...or sell it?
All that burnouts and drifting do is tear up one's rear tires..and the driveline.

The car's in great shape, somebody definitely cared for it. Had a complete service history, unlike a lot of the others I looked at which had 20-30k mile gaps in service records. It should keep relatively cool in the summer, being white on white. Definitely not getting skin cancer riding around in this. There's no way the front tint is legal. I may go have it redone at the legal limit because it's hard to see out of.
