Blue Bay Lagoon delivery

igott · 12-21-2022, 02:25 PM

My x1 came in Monday night, got PDI’d Tuesday when I was off, so I’m taking her home tonight now that she’s all prim and proper.

I’m not the greatest photographer and it’s cold out in Iowa, but here’s a few pictures. I love the color — looks better in person than the renders do justice online.

Haven’t spent much time in it because I’ve been busy. I already know I hate not having a dial and find myself reaching for it in the short time I’ve spent in the x1.

That color looks great! You're right - the images on Build Your Own don't do that color justice. But I think that's true of a number of colors on that page.

That looks great. The renderings and paint sample in the showroom make it look much more on the Teal side with a noticeable amount of green in it.

FlashMonkey929 · 12-21-2022, 03:01 PM

Man that's a great color. Really similar to Laguna Seca Blue!

Kromans1 · 12-21-2022, 03:02 PM

Beautiful!

TristarL10 · 12-21-2022, 04:37 PM

Beautiful! Congratulations….

Speedbird71 · 12-21-2022, 05:22 PM

Looks great. Congrats!

bluecrabby · 12-21-2022, 07:28 PM

looks great!

but where's all the snow and frigid temperature?

Paradocks · 12-21-2022, 07:47 PM

The Shadowline trim really makes the blue pop. Very nice combination.

roxzilla · 12-21-2022, 11:14 PM

It looks beautiful; too bad this colour is unavailable in Australia

If I'd have waited till today to take pictures, you'd be hard pressed to see any ground.

can't wait for you to report back with how it handles on 2 feet of snow or a solid sheet of ice on the road, in minus 40 temps.

(just kidding! stay home and be safe!)

Looks great. As said above, reminds me a lot of LSB, which I'm very excited about. Ours just hit the paint line. Can't wait for the delivery notification next month!

I'm going to agree with the disappointment of no dial. We're renting a '22 X3 right now (love it) and it's great to use, along side all the other physical controls. A lot of interior "updates" seem to be going backward, but it's unfortunately an industry standard at this point. I'll adjust, but I won't like it.
