I'm sure it is. Really longing for it. Guess it will take 4-5 weeks after production week until it gets to you? Anyone know how long the paint will have to wait until you do seal it? Is there any time at all nowdays or can one do it as soon as it gets out from the factory? Had problems with this a few years back when i fixed a parking damage and the company that did the seal managed to scratch the new paint before they sealed it. Looked really bad afterwards.

It took mine 5 weeks after production week to arrive at the dealer, one week later than planned. Apparently BMW Sweden are selling so many cars that they are having problems transporting them from the port in Halmstad to the dealers in time.
I have heard so many different stories on the paint sealing that I don?t really know what to believe anymore, I?ll be waiting until just before the winter season to have mine sealed with Mr Cap (I think).

Took delivery of my new baby yesterday evening after waiting since mid January..

The wait was sooo worth it, the car is awesome

Very smooth and quiet ride and the new 3.0 coupled with the new autobox is simply perfect... Really fast seamless shifts!
The ride is light years better than my E91 with 17" that I traded in, there is no tramlining or awful roadnoise like the E91 did/had.

A few quick pics, enjoy!

Thats hot! I've got to take photos of mine and post.... I have the LCI 535xi 2008 here in the US.
