You keeping the E46, too?

Yeah, mostly just trying to sell the Acura right now...

AW E90 with Fox Red. Picked it up last Tuesday. At 11 miles on the odometer driving east on I-90 and a rock hit the windshield with such force small particles of glass blew all over the dash. Called the dealer, quote for new windshield was $675. Called the tinting shop and they could do it for $349... Take it to the tinting shop on Friday to have the windshield replaced - wrong windshield - sent the windshield for the coupe and not the sedan. Windshield not in until next Friday... Not sure how I feel about this - a bit angry I guess. Did put 900 miles on her before taking it in to the shop and am loving the experience.

Sorry for your quick damage. Don't you have comprehensive insurance that would cover that for like $250?

Mine only took a day to get through VPC and another day to be trucked to Portland. May be longer, though.

apw2607 · 05-14-2008, 11:39 AM

Mine was off the boat on the Tuesday and arrived at BMW Seattle by the Friday. Super fast ....

Yours will be the 2nd SSII they have had .. and the 2nd M-DCT ... as mine was the first ;-)

BEEF · 05-15-2008, 12:49 AM

GregW + apw2607-

Thanks for the quick reply. My CA (BMWNW-Tacoma) is clueless...nice to have reliable info/experience. Fingers crosssed to have by this (sunny?) weekend!

Maybe #2 SSII/DCT in area...see you at Pacific Raceway in Kent or the proper course at PIR do do some lap times soon? (after break-in of course)

GregW / Oregon · 05-16-2008, 04:14 PM

Got my plate...

moog55 · 05-31-2008, 04:06 PM

mine is currently in production - due to be completed on the 3rd. that puts me at a july delivery i think. just when i think there's light at the end of the tunnel by being in production, i still have a 4-6 week wait after that.

Yeah, it's tough. You're looking at about 6/10-15 +/-. Mine finished 2/4 and got it 3/14.

nickw · 06-03-2008, 08:20 PM

Unloaded at VPC on 5/30, not scheduled to be released to trucking until 6/5.

This last bit of waiting is a killer. Maybe I'll get lucky and get it over the weekend. Fingers crossed.... sacrificing chickens.

wow. that would kill me. my car will finish production tomorrow and it will be the longest month (or so) in my life. haha.

nickw · 06-03-2008, 11:10 PM

We have just about the exact same config

Maybe the weather won't feel like Nov. when your car arrives - not exactly good driving out there today.

dawgdog · 06-05-2008, 06:56 PM

Mine is on the boat and should land at the VPC on 6/20. To be honest I am getting kind of used to waiting - not that I like it. I remember the wait for my first M3 (e46) was over 6 months. This wait is about half of that.

PunjabiM3 · 06-08-2008, 12:59 AM

Taking delivery of mine tomorrow at 11am. Third M3...have had two e46 and now this e92. Traded in my 997 c2s...getting married next year.
