Week 17 build finally arrives

60Driver · 06-25-2008, 02:27 AM

Well, it finally arrived. Twenty-five days at the port and then the full 14 days to get it from Oxnard to me. BMW couldn't possibly have taken more time if they tried. Makes me wonder...

Anyway, we took a few pictures and I thought I'd post them for your entertainment. The pile of stuff on the floor can now finally go on the car where it belongs.

1. Me and the boy and BMW Northwest.
2. Getting some supplies.
3. Getting it home (Epoxy floor still to be installed).
4. Now the fun begins! Blackout grills and ///M door sills still inbound.

60Driver · 06-26-2008, 01:58 AM

I was getting progressively more ticked at each passing day without the car so was more relieved than excited. The boy, now he was excited. He tells everyone that Dad has a BMW, not a new car, a BMW, and asks if they have 1. A BMW snob at 8. :biggrin:

Wow, based on your configuration and options, you must be pushing the $45k+ threshold.

Beautiful car though.

60Driver · 06-29-2008, 11:59 PM

Thanks. Just a touch over $41K actually due to Military Sales. And no sales tax either!

It's a great deal for sure, I just can't believe how fast it adds up.

You have $10K more in options than I have on my 135i.:respekt:
