My CA is telling me that I will be getting my car about 2-3 days from the time the vessel arrives at the port. Keep in mind my dealer is about 50 miles from the port.
I'm hoping and I mean REALLY HOPING that I can get the car by this Friday.

Wait a minute, does the vessel unload at two different ports? If that's the case my car may still be on the damn vessel waiting for offload at the Long Beach port! DAMN IT!!!

AFAIK BMWs only go to Hueneme for the West coast. It's either unloading another make at Long Beach or picking up something.

No, mine went directly from the factory (Regensburg) to the train to Bremerhaven all with bonded couriers, so no red tape.
I just don't want to start any trouble and have somebody complain to my dealer if they have a longer wait. BTW, the dealers have an incentive to get the cars ASAP because it's the end of the month and end of the quarter. They want to book the sales in June if possible.

Well, my CA said that my M3 will arrive at the dealership sometime today. He's recommended that I take delivery on Monday or Tuesday.
I put off clearing a space in my garage long enough. Happy motoring JLac! I think we have the same dealership. My CA doesn't work on Sunday. Last edited by M3TiAg; 06-26-2010 at 12:30 PM.. |

I see that they've added a bunch of Accessories to the Build Your Own webpage that weren't offered in March. I wonder if these can be added by the dealer. Last edited by M3TiAg; 06-26-2010 at 12:58 PM.. |

I got my car on Saturday! Everything went very smoothly at my dealership. 10/10 rating for South Bay BMW.
The car is a beast. The sound of the exhaust note is intoxicating. I'm going to quote my friend in saying that the car is just "JIZZTASTIC". I haven't really had a chance to take pics. I'll try to snap some shots tomorrow. My only gripe about the e92 m3 is that it does require quite a bit gas to get it going, but once it's rolling the car will go with ease. Coming from a turbo E36 M3, I can't say the e92 M3 is an absolute speedster, but you can tell that the power is definitely there. The best way to describe the car is that it is very balanced. The handling is definitely better than my modded E36 M3 even though it's substantially heavier. The center of gravity feels extremely low when taking corners. All in all, I am very happy with the car. You guys will experience all this for yourselves soon...
