Welcome. Our cars will have a lot in common since they both have many of the same accessories not to mention the same color combo. Glad to see the HUD. As well as these cars handle, the more you can watch the road the better.

Get all of your chores out of the way and get ready for a gala WE. You don't need any interference. There is nothing like these new Bimmers. Many deny themselves the pleasures that you are about to experience.

jmnieves: Welcome. I'm really not trying to rain on your parade, but a Saturday delivery to you with a Thursday boat arrival, while not by any means impossible, will require some luck. From your location, you're pretty close to the VPC, but, on average, cars, once unloaded, stays at the VPC for 3 or 4 days before being released for transport, according to BMWNA. Good luck, though. Your dealer will be able to tell you right away when it's released for transport. Then, the car will need about 1/2-day at the dealer to get it ready for you. Let us know.

Welcome. Congrats on the car. I hope it comes in soon for your sake. It must be driving you nuts waiting for your new baby.
