What reaction does your X1 get?

Not all cars can evoke a good response, either they are too average or too ordinary to get a reaction...I was just wondering what reaction people give when they see your X1.

The first reaction I typically get is: "Wow - I love that color! Any other positive comments usually come after that.

I get questioned all the time and honked with a thumbs up on the HYW.... No Joke!
I swear this is true, I was at a red light here in South Fla. and across the street was a chinese restaurant and a guy was coming out of and saw my car and I could hear him say loudly "WOW man that hot" as he watch me drive off. FUNNY...

On the road, mostly looks from other BMW owners, especially X3 drivers.
For those that have seen it up close, I first get a compliment on the color (Midnight Blue) and then how nice the Coral Red interior looks, then the cool wheels (sport line).
Those who have rode in it comment on what a strange feeling the start/stop is asking how I get used to it. My answer: I haven't yet!

I concur. When I left the dealership after taking delivery, an X3 M Sport passed me on the interstate. The couple looked over at me and I could tell they were thinking to themselves: "honey, we should have waited for the 2013 model year". Ha-ha!

Everyone at my job loves the color combination. The Alpine White with Coral Red really draws attention to the vehicle. Some were skeptical about the red interior when I told them about it but were won over after they saw it in person.

Yep I started out with a mini cooper sport fully loaded then moved to a BMW 135I sparkling graphite grey. Then to a X6 Felt the x6 was not me just too fat and big not my personality it was a nice ride but just didn't feel connected as I do my X1.
