Current rate I have is 4.9 with a credit union. BMW FS rates still seem to be 6.49 as of last week.

I got 4.5% /84 mo though Service FCU because they matched Keesler FCU.

Try Keesler FCU

asaulo1 · 03-19-2008, 04:08 PM

4.92% at LA Police FCU for me.. it might be even lower after all these rate cuts

I've been at the port waiting since March 10th. My CA contacted the BMW regional rep and he said they are aware of the backlog.

skierman64 · 03-21-2008, 08:09 PM

ruffdmx,

Any word on shipment of your car?

nusevad · 03-21-2008, 08:11 PM

I went to the dealer again to check out the two beauties. They just get better looking each time i see them. The 18in wheels really look much better in person and is perfect IMO.

3 more weeks for me...

skierman64 · 03-21-2008, 08:19 PM

Fifth, are you on the ship yet? (PS, it's bimmer, bimmer, bimmer) wiki is wrong, wrong, wrong.

Here's a picture of the ship my boat is on. Should I complain if I think it's an ugly ship?

Its not that ugly.

Nope, not on a ship yet. I should be on the Manon which leaves on the 24th. Crossing my fingers.

skierman64 · 03-21-2008, 09:49 PM

Fifth, will it help or hurt if I drive up and show you my car while you're waiting on yours. At least you'll get to ride in and experience DCT. For me it helped when I saw awesomem3s car prior to mine getting here, but not everyone feels that way.

I appreciate your offer Skier, but i dont think i can fully rest easy and move on until i sit in my baby. But my hopes are high, only 3 more weeks to go~

skierman64 · 03-21-2008, 11:05 PM

Where's the link to a guy on another forum who was trying to sell his DCT slot and had a car arriving before the end of March (not likely). I can't find the link.
