Talking Ordered my M3 Sedan for Euro Delivery!!

Just ordered it tonight.

Would like to thank Chris Lima at Patrick BMW, hes the man to call if you looking for a dealer near Chicago. Such an easy guy to work with.

Trip will be late May. Hopefully get the car here late June if im lucky.

2009 M3 Sedan
Space Gray
Bamboo Beige Leather
Carbon Leather trim
Premium Package
Tech Package
M-DCT
Heated seats
Moonroof

U.S MSRP = $65,925
My ED price = $58,085 (1k above ED invoice)

Still wondering if i should change the order to Interlagos Blue though?

Let the massive wait begin.

I thought there wasn't a discount for M models with European delivery.

BMW changed that policy earlier this month. If you look down the list of threads on page one of this forum, you'll see a thread about it.

SG is much darker in real life, and I love IB. In the end the choice is what makes you happy.

Make sure to take plenty of pics during your ED.

To soon to tell.

Really depends what kind of leasing numbers/Interest Rate that BMW is offering when its time to do the financial stuff.

They said we need to figure that out 30 days before the trip. So i have plenty of time.

If it were today, i would take the 2.9% over their 09 lease numbers.

Another vote for Jerez Black with bamboo. It has a dark blue tone and looks great with bamboo.

Great deal. Did you also get the 2.9% rate through BMW Financial? If so, even better.

I have to admit I just a bit envious of you guys doing ED now, with the discount. Had that been available last year, or if I had known it was coming this year, I'd have probably done that instead of jumping on my 0.9%, invoice+$500 deal.

Yes.

+100.

While it would be nice to have had the new idrive and what not, I really didn't care about missing out on all that. 0.9 and invoice was too much to pass up. But ED was something I had dreamed about ever since I first thought about buying a BMW... and given that amazing price to take an awesome trip, I have to say I am ridiculously jealous -- and of course happy -- of/for you. Have a great time and nicely done!

As to color. Space gray is certainly nice and probably easier to clean, but if you are willing to be obsessive, i'd go for the blue. It looks awesome.

I have always liked any gray ext with tan interiors. So your choice of:

Space Gray
Bamboo Beige Leather
Carbon Leather trim

...even Silverstone with Bamboo would look HOT!

Yes.
I cant lock that rate in right now since my ED date is to far away still. I have 60 days before my ED trip to lock in a rate if its good.

SO i can lock in any rate that is available in March and April. So heres hoping 0.9% comes back!!

Good on you mate. I got mine last year with no ED discount so you got a great deal. You will enjoy your trip as we did. I noticed that we got more acknowledgment from European people (drivers and pedestrians) than here in the States. Planning to drive on the Stelvio Pass?

Both Intelagos and Le Mans are dark blues. Interlagos has some purple hues to it, while Le Mans pretty much always blue.
