What are you getting added at the VPC?

DigitalMPower · 12-07-2012, 02:30 PM

^^^ I am having black grilles and exhaust added along with the floor mats

I couldn't justify the brakes even though I want them. Keeping the same body kit no need to add the new one. The only other thing I was thinking was the interior m performance trim and gear selector. I have aluminum hex so I might just stick with that and don't think the carbon fiber selector would look great if I didn't so the entire interior...

DigitalMPower · 12-07-2012, 04:46 PM

Also I want a carbon fiber front lip and diffuser so passing on BMWs M performance one

roadcarver · 12-07-2012, 06:49 PM

Thanks for the information Digital. The ship information was very hard to figure out once it got near Brunswick wasnt it? I guess the K-line website schedule was right after all, docking on the 7th. Lets hope the port installed parts dont take long.

DigitalMPower · 12-08-2012, 11:49 AM

It was hard to figure out. Just to show the inaccuracy of BMWNAs tracking system I called the 800 number this morning and got the status "your vehicle is at the port awaiting a shipping vessel." Lol

I know, when I log into the owners circle on the BMW website it still lists my car as waiting on production with no assigned production date. LOL. It kind of turns my stomach to see that even though I know it is not true. I tried to call my CA today but he is off. I will call him Monday for ETA

justinnum1 · 12-08-2012, 05:10 PM

i was on this boat 2 months ago, great boat

roadcarver · 12-10-2012, 01:26 PM

Digital, I just got word from my dealer that my car is due in at the dealership tommorow(Tuesday). I should be able to pick it up either Wednesday or Thursday. Hopefully yours is soon also.

I bet yours hits the dealership late this week or early next week at the latest.

dsad1 · 12-13-2012, 02:30 PM

Digital did you ever get an eta from your dealer?

My car is on the chesapeake highway which docked today, I am wondering how long it will take to get to Austin.

No still haven't heard anything and didn't want to bother him, will check next week since I took the week off work for the holidays if I still haven't heard anything.

DigitalMPower · 12-15-2012, 01:41 PM

Mine has been released to the trucking company but will probably still not arrive at the dealership until Thursday or so...almost over!

Roadcarver yours went very quicklly <------ jealous

It must have been the upgrades that delayed yours. Mine arrived to port on Thursday and left on Friday. Should be in Austin some time this week.

DigitalMPower · 12-16-2012, 10:20 AM

Yea that is possible my CA is going to call the trucking company on Monday he thinks it left Friday to get an exact date.

roadcarver · 12-16-2012, 11:43 AM

Getting close, Digital. You will love it. This car is fantastic and it takes a lot to impress me in a car. Smooth and handles great. I cant wait until break in is over to run her hard. I am hoping to get tints and venture shield on this week. Once I do, I will post a few pictures. I bet you get it by Thursday.

DigitalMPower · 12-17-2012, 09:11 PM

So I guess my car left earlier than we thought it is arriving at the dealer tomorrow, picking it up Wed or Thurs

It looks like it took about an extra week than yours to get to TX roadcarver.

Great news, your wait is over. I hope your weather for delivery is nice. Nothing like seeing your car for the first time.

Did you get your car? I will pick mine up tomorrow. If you don't mind me asking are you getting charged a MACO fee? I am being charged $450.

DigitalMPower · 12-20-2012, 01:04 AM

^^^ picking it up in about 9 hours, I will PM you my details once I make sure it is as described when the deal was made.
