Original 1M owners Roll Call!

Redadair · 07-02-2013, 11:06 PM

With the number of Original Owners selling their cars I thought I would ask who still has their cars?

Please only those who still own their cars and don't have them up for sale.

In my case I put down $2K in October 2010, got my allocation in June of 2011, ED 08/08/2011, car home in my garage 10/10/2011.

4200 miles

Still can't think of another car I would rather have.

V TACH · 07-03-2013, 07:09 AM

I took delivery of my 1M in October of 2011. I was actually second on the list but my allocation came up because the the guy who had the first spot passed because he couldn't make his M3 trade work out. It turns out this particular dealership only received one car after all--crazy to think that I was one trade in away from not getting my car! 22k+ miles later and I am all smiles!

Mdawood · 07-03-2013, 07:10 AM

got my allocation in august 2011. pcd november 2011. just under 12000 miles now.

ADVANT123 · 07-03-2013, 07:21 AM

$500 down payment when I saw the car for the first time at the NY auto show in 2011. Took delivery of car in August 2011. Currently have 4900 miles.

david.orr · 07-03-2013, 07:47 AM

waited 11 months for delivery, still loving it down under since May 12, love taking it for solo weekend runs and have no plan to let it go!

Axelf · 07-03-2013, 07:52 AM

Well technically speaking I not the original owner.... My brother bought it brand new Nov 2011... He was trading it in for an M6 and rang me to ask if I wanted to buy the 1M ..... I jumped at the chance .... It is currently sitting with 7700 miles on the clock.... I have no intention of getting rid of it either.....

sergeremi · 07-03-2013, 08:03 AM

One of the infamous dec 2 PCDers! Still have mine and LOVING every second behind the wheel.

Yellowceta · 07-03-2013, 08:19 AM

Late to the allocation party as I secured it back in Aug of 2011, but picked it up in Florida in November. 42,000 miles later and only on my second set of tires, the daily driver will never be sold.
