Delay of delivery...

[JOHN ///M]

lol. what i was told by my ca is that theres sometimes damages on the car, and if there is damages to the car, they will notify the dealer. My car was ready to be release to the trucking company on the 16th but, it seems like they didnt pick it up right away. Hopefully there is no damages to our cars. Good luck and enjoy your ride.

goerge v, I talked to my CA today and he told me that if there had been damage to my car that they would have been notified by the VPC. And then they would give me options as to what I would want to do. And that delivery had been moved up to either the 22nd or 23rd. So I feel a little better anyway.

Hi guys so glad to hear it. I have not annoyed my CA since Friday, so hopefully i'm in the same situation as you guys. Based on what my CA told me ,there is no damage. Maybe it's like you guys say , it's about transport logistics for the trucking company to be more financially efficient. Keep in touch after you hear that V8 fire up for the first time. Let me know how things went. By the way did you guys get the 6 speed manual or the Double-clutch Transmission with Drivelogic . I got the 6 speed manual , i feel i have more control , but i have a small regret i didn't get the Double-clutch Transmission with Drivelogic .

[JOHN ///M]

I ordered 6mt with no regrets.

[blublur]

As before on my current M3 I ordered 6MT. Wouldn't have it any other way. No regrets EVER! I've been driving manuals for many years. So, I'm thinking, hoping, I get to take delivery, possibly this weekend. We'll see. I'll let ya know. You all keep me posted as well.

I was just thinking, i guess i may have to change my screen name. I'll no longer be grayM. Since I'll now have a MCB M3. What to change it to? I'll have to do some thinking on it.

meanwhile over at the VPC... the exCaptian of the Costa Concordia cruise ship started his new job...




Guys it looks like there MAY some SOME SLIGHT damage ... but don't worry they got a guy that can fix this kind of problem and have your car right to you!

[JOHN ///M]

[george v]

awesome guys,all beautiful cars, keep in touch after pick up, enjoy your rides.

[JOHN ///M]

For sure. I'll take some pics tomorrow morning when I pick it up. Congrats and enjoy your rides guys.

[JOHN ///M]

Just to give you guys an update, I did pick up my car this morning. Sorry I didn't have the chance to take a pic. I will upload it later on tonight.

[george v]

Congrats 2K12 BMW M3 ,did everything go smoothly ?. Did your CA say anything about the delay at the VPC and did you inspect your car for any damage?. Got a cal from my CA afew hours ago , my order will arrive today, hopefully early so it gets ready for me to pick up today. One other question , how many miles were clocked when you sat in it?. I can see the smile on your face when you puled out of the dealership. Once again enjoy your ride.

[JOHN ///M]

Everything was smooth and clean. My car had 7 miles on it. Right now I'm at supreme power modify the car.

[JOHN ///M]

I was actually in a rush, so I checked the car quickly and left. Everything is perfect on the car.

[george v]

Hey guys picked up my order last night. As you will know it's a fantastic drive. The process at the dealer went ok , other than a small screw up with paperwork which should have been straightened out previously. Unfortunately i got there late so the sun had gone down, I inspected the car , looks great , my CA reassured me no damage had been done during shipping , I'll have another close look today in daylight. There was 9 miles on the odometer , which is fine ( i don't think anyone took it for a joy ride). I only need to get a tint today and then i can relax. Once again thanks for all your updates . Enjoy your rides.

grayM I hope you have received your order.

2K12 BMW M3 How did your mods go?.

[JOHN ///M]

All my mods were installed except for White LED gill Blinker (because BMW Performance Gill is on back order till April), White led blinker (because it wouldnt match if the front white led blinkers and the gills is yellow) reflector is being painted right now, so i should get it installed by tues and thats about it. The mods thats on the car right now is Vorsteiner - VRS Aero Carbon Fiber Front Spoiler , Vorsteiner GTS-V diffuser, Alpine HID Angel Eyes, Rogue Short Shifter, KW Sleeves, and Akrapovic - Evolution Titanium Exhaust System w/ ESS Tuning. I will make a new thread and take some picture of my build. Congrats on your car and enjoy.

[blublur]

Congrats both of you I'm so happy for you and I was so jealous because my car had yet to be delivered! As of Friday Nada! But, this morning my CA called and said it was there and he actually had laid hands on it. FINALLY! Now they have some things to install and they're dealer prep to do and I'll be taking delivery tomorrow. The wait had been so long. I originally started this whole process with another dealer last July 31st. When they couldn't come through come November I gave up and went to the competition in town and here we are I'll be taking delivery of my Individual Monte Carlo Blue E92 M3 tomorrow! I'm going to enjoy every freaking moment!
