Unfortunately my hopes got squashed and my date was pushed back to August 17th as of this morning.

I too heard 8/17...

For my fellow brothers on Tombarra...I picked up my car yesterday.

At the dealer:



Back home, with garage mates:







I will enjoy hearing about your cars soon!

I know, it's nuts. it's a little shorter, a little wider and a little taller (possibly because of the wheels). Inside it is very comparable. I remember when I picked up the M5 almost 12 years ago - it's 18 inch wheels looked huge to me...they are tiny when parked next to the 666 wheels. Not sure how I feel about that. I love the OE 65 wheels on the E39 M5 - they are beautiful and I would not want anything bigger on that car. The F80 - perhaps because of what you noticed - can definitely handle the 20 inch wheels. I'm not a "bling" person, so it's taken a while, but now I love them.

Called BMW Genius today to confirm the 8/17 dealer delivery. Guess what, I was told that the date is no longer in the system with no further estimate on a delivery date. Probably "Mid-September".

I am getting more and more frustrated with BMW NA's lack of information and missed expectations.

Same here. If it really ends up being mid September I may try to get out of this lease and go to a different brand. This is beyond ridiculous.

I got pushed to Aug 30th. Pretty sure it will get pushed again.

Okay, ETA at Seattle is 9/2. Anyone else with an ETA, finally. Let's hope this one sticks.

Sounds like a great idea. PM me your email address and where you live in Seattle and we can coordinate something.

I am planning to go to E@RTC on Saturday am. Would be cool to try to park the cars next to each other.

Cheers,

Twins :-)
