I just can't wait

A good friend of mine, who introduced me to this forum, recently assumed the lease for a 6MT Melbourne Red E93 and had it shipped across the country. He gave me the key and encouraged me to take it for a spin. After a short ride around the neighborhood, with a smile from ear to ear, I turned and told him that I had to have one.

A week and a half later I assumed the lease for an Interlagos Blue DCT E92 and I am now waiting for it to be transported cross-country - the suspense is killing me. I have been having dreams about driving this car. While driving in my Honda, I find myself telling my fiance how much faster/better/smoother/more exciting the drive would be in the M3.

Simply put, I can't wait. I have been checking the transport company's website every 20 minutes hoping the truck driver would just drive faster.

I figured I would write my inaugural post and share a picture of the car with the promise for more to come once I finally get it home.

Nice. Just be glad you don't have to wait months like some who have ordered theirs. Remember now, you promised more pics so we'll hold you to it.

Cheers.

Thanks for all the congratulatory notes.

I just called the transport company - It looks like I will have to wait until late next week to get the car. Unfortunately it is enroute to TX (from Los Angeles) by rail, after which it will be loaded on a truck to get to NJ, where I can finally pick it up.

Next weekend is going to be a lot of fun. As the title suggests, I just can't wait.

I will be sure to write with all my impressions of the vehicle. Giggity

One of the first things to do is clay it to get all that rail dust off.

Cheers.

I bet you wish you could just go into a coma until it gets here.

Hope the trucker is a very fast driver but is also very SAFE too!
