MCB E92 European Delivery Experience + Pics

airwave808 · 09-14-2011, 08:24 PM

I finally did the European Delivery on September 3rd. The experience was beyond my expectation. I would highly recommend ED to anyone buying a brand new BMW. I was able to drive on amazing stretch of roads and on a car that felt was made for roads like that. I did not take the usual "pass" route taken by forum members but still came back satisfied. My favourite routes were through Black Forest (M-N, P-Q) as shown on the map. I don't think I need to say anything about S65. This M3 is not like anything that I have driven before. Sorry about the quality of some pictures. Feel free to ask any questions about the ED process or the car.

Specs.

Exterior: Monte Carlo Blue, Interior: Rust Brown, Competition Package, Audiophile Package, MDrive, etc.

Itinerary:

Day 1: Munich
Day 2: Fussen, Neuschwanstein Castle
Day 3: Route 198 - Austria
Day 4: Dornbirn, Bregenz - Austria
Day 5: Luzern, Spiez - Switzerland
Day 6: Black Forest - Germany
Day 7: Baden-Baden, Frankfurt Drop off - Germany

Fantastic Combo!!!

Congratulations! Your car looks fantastic and I appreciate you putting up pics and especially your route. May do ED next spring or, if not, still looking at a driving trip and wondered about the route through the Black Forest.

Hope your wait now is as short as possible!

you canadians and your MCB and Brown interior... so jealous.

beautiful man.

masti99 · 09-15-2011, 06:20 AM

Awesome

jonasaurus · 09-15-2011, 07:50 AM

Congrats. Rust Brown is a great interior colour!

Foodle · 09-15-2011, 08:32 AM

great color combo.

If only I'd known about individual colors when I'd ordered

airwave808 · 09-15-2011, 10:08 AM

Thanks Everyone. Initially I was not sure about Rust Brown and looked into other options. I like this colour now even more than the exterior. Pictures do not do justice.

Vise · 09-15-2011, 10:33 AM

Congrats!!! Car looks amazing... hopefully no delays with re-delivery.

Thanks. The car is already on the boat from what I can tell with arrival in Halifax on the 27th. When it will arrive in Toronto is anyone's guess.

MUFCbmwbear · 09-15-2011, 11:00 AM

Nice choices. MCB, Rust and Piano Black.

Mr. ///M3 RD · 09-15-2011, 11:10 AM

Congratulations ... and happy trails always

airwave What was your total wait time from day of order to ED delivery? Also did you check with several dealerships as far as ED was concerned? I suppose you did not get any break on the price like our American friends south of the border?

blublur · 09-15-2011, 11:20 AM

2011or 2012?

I had ordered beginning of June but September 3rd was my choice. I was told that car can be ready for ED within 6 weeks. I didn't get a break off the bat like they do in the U.S. but was able to get 7.5% off of MSRP with options. Hope this helps.

thanks again!

Nice car, nice pics.

However, I don't know if Google likes if you upload their maps to another website - I know anyone can see it, but this is copyrighted material. I have once been sued by a german company because I have put up a map of my location to my website.

Besides, I'd like to have that route, so could you be so kind to post the link to it (there is a link symbol on the upper right corner on Google Maps)? Then anybody can use that map and even modify it for their own use.
