From Munich, Germany to Toronto, Canada

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Well it's been a really excellent experience going on the European Delivery which BMW Canada and BMW M division Munich took us on and showed us how to drive our M cars in Europe.

You can check it out here: http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1006526

So she is finally Canadian eh!

She was dropped off a few hours ago all dirty from dust from most likely sitting in Halifax and, someone took the front plate and the navigation USB with the European maps, then left a bottle water with an eaten apple stuffed in it.

But at least she is here and will be ready for me to pickup on Thursday night!

Thanks to everyone at BMW Canada and Munich! You guys are the best!

And a thanks to the gang that went to Munich with us, you guys made the trip all that more special and now I have a set of new friends that I can hang with!

Here are some pics of her at the dealer after she was dropped off.

Congrats! Looks like you're one of the 1st few to get their cars back from ED in NA!

Did they leave all the vignette stickers? Did you see the front plate put in the trunk or they seem to have taken it? Where did you drop off your M4?

The did left all the stickers on it from Munich, but we could not find the front plate unfortunately customs removed it and we don't know what happened to it even though there was a sign in the car to leave it in the truck in 4 different languages.

The car was in Halifax in the BMW center getting ready to ship and then a trucking company delivered it to the BMW dealership in Toronto and now they are doing the first service (2000km) on it now and rechecking everything from the PDI that was done, so I should be driving her Thursday night in time for our weekly meet in Mississauga!

Happy to see someone get their car back from the Torrens. Mine should have been at my dealer on Monday but held up for some mystery work order. I dread thinking what It could be

I will know exactly everything that was done in detail. I have escalated with my internal contacts to get to the bottom
Of all the misinformation. Even the dealer can't get a straight answer. Just hoping I don't miss Bimmerfest East on Saturday with all this confusion. I don't suppose anybody from your group had plans to attend?

Congrats on getting her back. Its too bad about the front plate. At least the rear plate is still there. How long did your car sit in Halifax before it went on a truck?

Unfortunately not that I know of I do know a few that are going but they are not apart of our group trip.

I waited to go but this was my 2nd big trip this year and I can't get out of work.

I am getting it replaced so it will be a duplicate but it will be made in Germany.

The car was in Halifax for about 5 to 6 days.

Looks great. I am about to order my M4 Cab here in Toronto. Which rims are those? The ferric grey ones? I am not a fan of the black rims.

Yes you are correct, I believe that is what they are called.
