Getting excited! My Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus tires are here and will replace the banal Goodyear RFTs on day 1. Got my Bimmerzone compact spare for the trunk. Now if only Dinan can figure out how to reflash the 2012 ECU by the time my car arrives...

Wow congrat's dear for new car. than when will you give party???

You should hold out until the first week of March and see what the new rates will be. Jan and Feb were the same, but I've heard March might be better. Just a thought...

Thanks C. Yes the Jan and Feb lease deals were not so great. I actually got the December rates and Mission to Drove cash. It was a great deal. To keep it I need to take delivery by Feb 29.
