I had difficulty uploading photos and video during the trip so there was a lot more I wanted to share at the time and couldn't. Here are more of the images and some things that came to mind when I saw these images again:
Here is a shot of the Entrance, from the inside, of the BMW Welt:
I have a few more photos from this area, including a couple shots of a AW 1M on displat while I was there. It was a preproduction unit with Chrome Window treatment. I'll load them next in the "tour" images.
I mentioned that you signed in upstairs in a wonderful lounge with a cafe, and that I had seen my car from up above. Here are the stairs that lead down from the lounge to the delivery area. The photos after this were all taken from these stairs as I walked down towards the cars.
It was amazing to have the M3 and the 1M, both black and both wearing the same wheels, side by side at the same time. What a pair!
In much of the promotional shots for the 1M, they emphasize this view...there's a reason!
From sitting behind the 1M on the turntable, this is what you see. I was trying to get a shot that captured the width and the presence of the car. I couldn't quite get far enough back to really do it justice....but it gives you an idea:
This is a shot of the BSM 1M with the headlights lit. Menacing!
When I headed out to grab my two buddies from the Airport to go to the meeting at M-Studio, I packed all my gear in the car. It holds a surprising amount. I know becuase those two turkeys brought as much as I did and we got all THAT in, too!
