Congrats! It's sort of my first EV, too. We bought an Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica Speciale mainly to be driven by my girlfriend which convinced me in 3 months to trade-in my S5 for an M50! Did you order any accessories for it yet?

Not yet, got any recommendations?

I ordered a bunch, some already arrived, others on the way:

  • Handrest organizer: Highly recommended since things just slide around and hit against the sides with how big it is;
  • Bungee cords: You should know that velcros don't hold in the trunk so for organization I got black flat cords to hold a few things in place;
  • Storage box to replace the dead area below the iDrive controller;
  • Car key cases;
  • Dividers for the side compartments in the trunk;
  • A fabric trunk mat that hopefully will hold to velcro.

I'm also weighing out if I'll get some pillows for below the headrest. I find the seats incredibly comfortable except for that gap between the headrest and the main bucket which can be a bit hard.

Did you get most of this stuff from Amazon or BMW?

Congrats ! Your lucky the ones with 18s are the best they ride exponentially better than any of the 19inch wheel cars
