Starting to think about the G60

Starting to think about a G60. My '22 M550ix lease ends exactly 12 months from today, so I have time to decide what to do. Very strong chance I might purchase. Either an i5 M60 or 550e. Unfortunately I was hoping for the M560e PHEV, but apparently it is no longer planned for production. One thing I will not sacrifice moving to a G60 is the rear wheel steering. Hoping to scope out the car "in the metal" here in LA soon, and I know it is odd, but a question I have is if the storage compartment to the left of the steering wheel still there? Haven't seen it in photos and that is where I put my eyeglasses. And from what I have seen, the door bins are much, much smaller. Small things, but important to me. Drive an iX for a few days while my car was in for service. The EV powertrain was fine, no problem with that, but otherwise I really disliked the car. Would never get one. The ergonomics were horrible, and was all the hard plastic on the center console. Overall a huge disappointment and I hope the the G60 didn't get caught up in BMW's quest for more profit and removing content. Like the door sill plates, seatback map pockets, etc.

Oh, and need to update my profile: Currently in the garage are the '22 M550ix and a '20 X3 M40i.
