1Ms in NYC?

So I've been in town a couple of days and haven't seen a 1M yet. Anyone here in NYC, midtown maybe?

I keep mine at my brothers house in NJ. However I've seen an AW one a few times in the 20's around Chelsea.

Mine's not in town at the moment (unfortunately neither am I). Now that you mention it, I haven't seen one myself since I ordered mine last jan. Yet, IIRC there is at least one post with a sighting

Theres on 740 cars total in the US and Manhattan could be one of the worst places to own/drive this type of car. Your actually surprised you haven't seen one?

I live in NJ and have only seen 1 other 1M.

I'm generally in the NYC area, though currently the 1///M is serving 'winter duties' in Miami. Yeah, she's a Snowbird

I bought my car from BMW Manhattan and that was hopefully the last day I will have to drive in the city at all. Lucky for me BMW is pretty close to the West Side highway
