Out of curiosity, why arent you using the BMW provided charger?

Mine was included in my sale.
Too late now I pulled the battery out and brought it inside. I connected it to the battery charger that I bought since I didn't get a free charger like you did.

I'm trading in my E60 M5 (which I'm actually pretty sad about) and picking up my F82 today.

I intended to get a stripper for a couple of years until the G30 was released but I saw the frozen red on opal launch edition sitting on the showroom floor and was floored. I hope I like everything else about it as much as the looks.

I'm getting winters mounted and planning on running it as a daily driver.

Another frozen Albertan checking in. This photo does a better job of showing off the Rockies than it does for the M3!

This winter has been so mild that I started driving the M in the beginning of the month. I already installed the MPE ??. I hope to install some drop in filters and BMS stage 1 soon.

I have snuck the F80 out twice when the daytime temperatures have been above 7....Just very cautious that I am taking it in to Auto Obsessed for clear film installation soon and that the roads are covered in gravel and crap. Home - Work - Home.

I just couldn't resist...

I may have been driving by the Cactus club but I definitely was not at the Cactus Club....

You probably saw a Sahkir Orange...

I called Bavaria BMW today to order the gloss black rear M4 emblem that is now on competition packages. Gave them the part number from the forms and it does not exist apparently. I though part numbers are all the same in every country. Just useless. On a side note, any want some replica cf front splitters ? I also just bought the cf knob trim and DCT panel : this car is draining my bank account

Ahhhh. Yes the awesome service at our Edmonton dealerships. I have an M3 and ordered the competition rear emblem last week from them. No issues. But when I called them for the belts that ended up not so well. I had to go back to my contact at Calgary BMW to get the whole story (long story short they can't get them here and Canadian comp cars won't have the three stripe belts). It's frustrating at best dealing hg with the local car guys.

Anyways I had to school them on the emblem and tell them it is a new part number. Then they looked and secured it from a different database. Try that. If not call Calgary BMW and speak to Roman...

The Edmonton dealerships also gave me a story about not honoring our BMW club discounts anymore....id rather take my business to calgary than deal with them...

Good luck. And yes...happy spending
