Ummm, you need to take the rest of the week off, drive the hell out of it and type up every good (and bad) thing you can think of about the car on here until your fingers become bloody nubs. I'll be reading...

The assistant sales manager at my dealer told me that their first delivery is at the port in Halifax, but BMW Canada will not release it until the official June date. The customer for that car is very disappointed as he expected to be able to take delivery this month. |

I'm not sure exactly why they have to wait; jumping through regulatory hoops and waiting for legal hurdles to be cleared could likely be part of it. Whatever the reason, the stockpiling of the cars at such an early date has always seemed a little strange. You'd think they could be actually selling and delivering them in other regions instead. Why not time them to come off the boat in May or even June instead of now? They have this multi-bazillion dollar just-in-time manufacturing infrastructure that can get the cars built in the exact quantities they need only to have them delivered on a date that is months earlier than it needs to be. |

This reminds me if the first Delivery of the F10 M5 in 2011 by some guy from Switzerland. Epic day for us all!
Your F80 is beautiful by the way. First time I've seen the F80 in AW. Arab money FTW! Lol!
