How Long did it take you to get to 1200 Miles?

I guess I am curious if the BMW Community uses their E90 as there primary car or is it their toy? I for one use it as a Toy and thus it has taken me 8 months to reach 1200 miles....

Let´s see, 1200 miles is is 1931 km. I hit that on day 3 or 4 after factory delivery. 2426 km in 4.5 days following factory pickup.

Of course, I´ve only put on about 3000 km in 4.5 months after the first 5 days.

Im from Chicago and will be doing the same exact thing as him when I get my E92.

Actually Chitown 's write up about PCD is part of the reason I chose to do it.

But Chitown if you did it again would you ship it back? Im kinda worried about putting a thousand miles on it in the first day. Or do you know anything about shipping it back.

Since Im waiting for the E92 it seems I will have a while to figure all this out.!
