No mod's for me. I didn't like the look of the CF bits on a red car. The exhaust would have been nice (though expensive) if it had offered some performance gains.
Bringing my checkbook to the Performance Center, however, for some floor mats, trunk mat and and an iPhone adaptor. BTW, I sold my Hellrot E36 M3 to a gentleman from Atlanta last week! You can see him run it at Road Atlanta in March, at the next BMW CCA HDPE.

VPC = Vehicle Preparation Center ---> a VERY critical step in the ordering process. Highly recommend a readup on it here: What happens at VPC |

I believe each port has its own VPC. The one I always hear about is in NJ, but I wouldn't think that they'd bring a car into Port Charleston, haul it up to NJ, then back down to SC. That's just my guess - if you learn anything different from your dealer, let us know! Hey, Baltimore!!! Did you get yours from David Aviles?

Yup, from David.
I've read the VPC write-up at the link. Maybe I'm just being dense but where is the VPC location? Does each port have a VPC location? Doesn't make sense that cars would get off at different ports if there are just 1-2 VPC locations.

Congrats on the sale of the whip. Hellrot is a bad mamma jamma color! MR was my initial top choice for the M, but the wife told me she didn't want another red car in the fleet. Que sera... |

That's funny! I was looking at LMB (actually hoping for that Monte Carlo Blue they showed off in Europe last year), but the kids insisted on MR - it seems that my Dad started the "Red M3" tradition in the family, I guess. His fourth red M3 is on order for ED in May.

I was about to pull the trigger on the Monaco Blue, until I saw Atlantis Blue . Even then, I just couldn't justify 5k on a paint job. It would be better spent on performance parts IMO. In regards to Monaco Blue, I have a hard time discerning it from the LMB in a lot of the pics on here. There are 2 other guys on here that are taking PCD on 3/18 as well. One of them ordered the MB. I'm looking forward to having the LMB and MB side by side! |

So that might mean I have to wait until Elektra on February 9th. That would be sad

None of the Dallas dealers would take part in the delivery. I am having it shipped down from NW BMW by a shipping company of my choice.

My car ( wk 4 build) just hit assembly so I should be joining you on the docks in a couple of days. Of course, won't get delivery until I see Mr_Yogi at the PCD on 3-18 ( wow almost 2 months still to go).
Watching for our cars on the dock ( BMWs usually load on the middle ship in this picture) right behind all the dump trucks ( which have been there all week) http://www.blg.de/de/blg-logistics/s...am-automobile/

I am *so* jealous of your MCB - I can't wait to see pictures of it!
