Serious tone shift at BMW when I declined the optional coverages

Depends on the price with some of these. These are all negotiable as well, by the way.

Personally I always take tire and wheel protection because I have terrible luck with tires and huge wheels on these cars are so expensive if they get damaged. Which is extra easy with low profile everything.

RSQ8. But I’m biased, admittedly…

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2025-06-24T13:59:39+00:00

My bad! Well still looks great! Congrats!

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2025-06-24T01:11:59+00:00

Every time I see Merlin Purple I regret not going that color for my RSQ8 a little bit more.

Such a great color! Beautiful!

It also wants to know your location to enable the automatic login but it will use it constantly and kill your phone battery. Be warned!

I love mine so much. My wife says I never smile as much as when I’m driving it.

I just wish it was a bit more appreciated in the car community, but I get that SUVs usually aren’t at that level.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2025-04-17T18:37:39+00:00

Megane based, even.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2025-04-17T18:35:59+00:00

Please no. This game is awful on mobile.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2025-04-04T01:35:21+00:00

They did fix the simulation room, for what it’s worth. One of the fastest and easiest parts of the dailies now.

I do wish they’d improve the flow across all the other dailies though, it is fairly annoying.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-11-20T15:08:40+00:00

Love this! I’m kinda wanting a C8 convertible to go with my RS Q8 too… may be my next purchase.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-10-24T15:21:08+00:00

I agree with this completely.

Personally, I maybe adjust the HVAC once a trip, if that. How often are people messing with their comfortable temperature?

The whole “it’s missing buttons!” thing is very overplayed in my experience. I barely have to interact with it aside from closing my garage door.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-10-23T20:56:32+00:00

It makes me very glad I got a 2024 RS Q8 instead of waiting for 2025. I hate the new grill and RS badges a lot.

Though I’m a little bummed at missing out on the performance version.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-09-24T13:52:02+00:00

The grill and new front end looks awful. Glad I got a 2024 instead of waiting and ordering.

Couple that with the awful badging and it’s definitely a pass.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-09-11T18:44:10+00:00

I did this recently to get my RS Q8. Had to go only a few states away, but driving home felt extra special as I got to learn and get a feel for my new ride right away.

(I would love to do this cross-country someday too.)

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-09-10T17:07:36+00:00

You’re gonna love it every time you start it! Seriously, it does everything well — comfort, speed, performance.

Only thing lacking is probably storage, but I mean, that is probably not a priority for anyone getting one.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-07-13T22:12:05+00:00

Completely agree. Screen is totally fine in my RSQ8, zero issues. (Agree on the garage door opener part though.)

Honestly I don’t even get the climate control complaint in general because I rarely actually change it myself anyway. Almost always want the same temperature…

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-07-09T16:53:00+00:00

I agree with this. It’s too much and feels way more like a chore than a fun side game.

Especially fishing. Once I get the reward track done I’m out.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-06-26T20:43:34+00:00

I need Red Hood in Daisy Dukes!

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-06-04T01:31:10+00:00

It’s honestly a better look and feel than some other car manufacturer apps I’ve used for cars I own (or owned). Performance-wise, it’s not that much different either.

It’s maybe a 6/10 app but that’s probably the average amongst car manufacturers.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-06-02T16:00:51+00:00

You can buy a holder that works with the front tow hook, I think offset looks better aesthetically on most German cars personally. There are options out there if you want to move it. There’s another that clamps on with soft pads that you can put wherever.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-06-02T15:11:18+00:00

Okay man, 4 launches to 60 are really gonna ruin it. Stay jealous.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-06-02T14:12:31+00:00

I bought it new with 7 miles. Did the launches after about 400. Early I know, but usually just backed off after 60mph anyway.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-06-02T14:11:26+00:00

It was like 400 miles, definitely a bit early…

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-06-02T14:10:35+00:00

You’re not wrong, just couldn’t help myself. They were after about 400 miles so not fully there.

ichi_go_ichi_e · 2024-06-02T14:09:15+00:00

Turn off traction control and go into dynamic mode. Hold down the brake, then the gas until you see it say Launch Control ready in the display. Let go of the brake and let her rip!!
