It's On the Way!

rogbmw · 06-06-2011, 02:48 PM

Just spoke with the dealer, and the car has been picked up at the prep center by the delivery company. It will be the first one delivered by the dealer - their first allocation. It should be here in the next 2 days! Can't wait!

1SerieStud · 06-06-2011, 03:55 PM

Where in FL? Are you the guy in Jax?

rogbmw · 06-07-2011, 06:58 AM

Yes - in Jax. By the way..is that a P3 at NAS in the background?

1SerieStud · 06-07-2011, 08:38 AM

Haha, I knew it had to be a Jax customer, since I've actually been tracking your car to see it when it comes in by Thursday/Friday. Hopefully you won't have picked it up by the time I get there to see it in the flesh. I've already seen a black one in person, and a white one on a delivery truck.

I'm #1 on Tom Bush's list in Orange Park, but because both dealers work together, I'm truly #3, something I did not find out until later. The good news is that your car is already here, the second car is currently being produced, and mine should go in within a week or two!

Yes that's a special edition p3 Orion at NAS. I created a full album you can search for and see the pictures of the whole group. We have a great little group of about 8-10 cars here in jax and we tend to meet and hold events often. This weekend we will be having a dyno day.

Congratulations on your 1M!

Congrats.
Just received my production number. So hopefully I should have my AW 1M by august. Gainesville only 90 mins away. We will all have to meet up.

1SerieStud · 06-07-2011, 10:57 AM

By the way, in case you didn't know, your car is 3 days early, so it's scheduled to be at the dealer most likely tomorrow

1SerieStud · 06-07-2011, 10:59 AM

Absolutely. I moved to jax from Gainesville, so when I was searching for a 1M I almost got on the Gville list as well, but then I decided to stick to my local dealers.

We should definitely meet up when we get our cars!

OP what dealer and do you know if your car is there? I gotta go to Jax this afternoon, I would love to finally a 1M in person.

The guys at BMW Gainesville didn't know what a 1M was when I tried to put a deposit down so I went else where. But I did buy my wife a 335d from them

rogbmw · 06-07-2011, 11:49 AM

ITS HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just went to look at it, and it's really a beautiful car. So glad that I went with AW (but I like white cars too). They are going to do the PDI this afternoon, then I get to drive it after I get off work today. They are going to put it on display at Tom Bush on Atlantic on the Roundel in the showroom until I pick it up.

TunedM2C · 06-07-2011, 12:00 PM

^Congrats. I'm picking mine up in a few hours myself.

1SerieStud · 06-07-2011, 12:40 PM

Congrats!!!! I have a few contacts at the dealer and I was just sent a pic of your car to my phone...so I came straight to the thread to let you know, but I guess you have been contacted already! Lol

Let us know once you pick it up!

You beat me to it! I took some quick pictures at lunch, but have not had the time to download them yet. Also - I'm almost 6' 4", and I have LOTS of room inside! Can't wait to drive it this evening. It has all of 2 miles on it.

1SerieStud · 06-07-2011, 05:49 PM

Nice meeting you friend, and congratulations on your 1M once again! The car looks amazing in person!

thepro50 · 06-07-2011, 05:57 PM

Very nice meeting you. The car is beautiful. Now I really can't wait till mine gets here.

They put it on the roundel on the showroom floor for me after I drove it! Go take a look. It was great meeting both of you guys that came. Everyone from the dealership came to look at the car. After a short PDI drive, I was very impressed with the handling...and speed!
