Any suggestions on taking delivery, tricks of the trade? This is my first BMW and I'll be picking it up tomorrow at the dealer. I don't think I'll sleep tonight.

Outstanding! Your post earlier said a few more days. Don't you love it when your salesperson sandbags you like that. At least he erred on the good side and it's here early. Enjoy. We'll give you a day or two of driving before we expect pictures.
