That's good to know, I wasn't aware of the included M Sport package as standard equipment. That does make it more attractive.
When I option a 550e like my ordered 540 config, it comes out to $83,675 with destination vs. $79,350. That's an easier sell.
The only thing that would hold me back is the unknown, regarding reliability. I've read they've had a number of problems with the PHEV X5 technology and as far as I'm aware this is the same architecture. For a lease, likely not a concern. For a purchase, you'd need to really weigh out the pros and cons.
