The odd thing is that it doesn't look all that bad "live". When I was at the Chicago Autoshow the ride height didn't look so terrible. For some reason this vehicle is hard to capture well in photos.

Ticked all of the options, the only one's I left off were High beam assist and Internet.

I ordered my car on the 11th April.

That's what all my friends said when they saw my car, the 1M looks way better in real life. It just looks bigger, and mean.
