Congrats!
I did the same, traded a 2006 for a 2008 and agree 100% with your observations.
If the 2006 deserved an A, then the 2008 is an A++.

Picked mine up in August at the museum, this time I got F55 rather than my previous Z51. Really glad, much better for a daily driver and still handles extremely well. I now have 5,766 miles on the car and love it more each day. So far not a hiccup. I also agree M2W is a great option.

Congrats and thanks for the write up. Makes me glad local dealers won't let me test drive one

Totally agree with you. This was an up-grade from an '01 and the refinements to this car are very apparent.
