...ensure it's warmed up and fluids at proper operating temps then drive it hard. Back pressure, varied rpm's, shift the entire transmission - as many gears as possible - and getting the rings seated properly are your main priorities. To hell with fuel economy at first. Break it in correctly and everything else is automatic afterwards.

Cars looking good. Can't wait to see one in person

IND-Distribution · 02-07-2012, 09:07 PM

Love it! Congrats to you!

VictorGzz67 · 02-07-2012, 09:12 PM

Thank you to all of you for those great comments... I can`t wait to drive it on a mountain high way but unfortunately it seems that we are going to have rainy days starting tomorrow. The tires feel very comfortable but I really think I will go for the 19" wheels very soon, love to have 225 in front and 255 in the rear..lol... May be the interior looks orange for some of you but it really is a beautiful red. I do not know why the key is bigger but at least you do not need any more to insert it in the car on any F30. Here in Monterrey, Mexico takes me 4 days to insurance this vehicle because the insurance companies didn`t have the DATA info of F30 in their systems and also takes me 4 days to have the plates because the State where Monterrey is didn`t have any information to release plates.lol..... I think that from now nobody in Monterrey will have those problems

. I will keep posting comments in this great forum as I drive more kilometers. Thank you again to all of you and I hope we start to share more experiences as the release date arrives and more members get this beauty of F30.

J-boogey · 02-07-2012, 09:12 PM

The red key fob is the F30's key fob. Smaller one is for older BMW model.

Here are the 3 colored key fobs (Sport -> Modern -> Luxury):

Ohhhhh, it was a size comparison pic! lol

Interesting that they have different "lines" now. I'll have to take one for a drive when these hit my local dealer! They look nice!

Quick question, does the car have the Xenon headlights?
I have been searching for a picture of the new F30 without Xenons, but it appears most of the press cars have the Xenon headlights fitted.

Cheers

Here you go. The Alpine White in this thread does not have Xenon headlights.

Very interesting, thats the first time i see what the day time running lights look like, they are pretty neat with that half circle look, how hard do you guys think it would be to put in some other bulbs, like a bluer or whiter looking bulb....?

SchnellM3 · 02-07-2012, 09:56 PM

Congratulations! Nice color combo

gunnerxq · 02-07-2012, 10:03 PM

just wondering how did Mexico get it so early?

F80M · 02-07-2012, 10:10 PM

Oh man...why not 335i???

positiveions · 02-07-2012, 10:19 PM

congratulation my friend. It looks stunningly beautiful. Enjoy it.

Excellent photos OP and congrats! Please do provide a "first drive" review for us and we can get some "driver" review, that's always more personal and real than the typical magazine reviews you get.

You've got a nice pair .... of 3!
