Am I an idiot?!?

I pulled the trigger on an '18 M3 from across the country. Site unseen, other than the pictures from the dealership's listing and a few more from the sales guy. I'm in Ohio and the car was in Oregon. Decent price but I did it because I'm turning in my current lease very soon and really wanted a specific set of colors/packages on an '18 M3 (black/black, Comp, Exec) and the DCT (wife can't drive manual; in case of emergencies).

Based on what I could find/read the car checks out: low miles (~17k), 16 months of factory warranty, clean CarFax, regular maintenance, very clean (at least via photos).

It arrives Sunday via dealership-arranged shipping. I'm planning to take it to my local BMW specialty shop on Monday for a post purchase inspection (I think that's an oxymoron) but wanted to ask you folks if there's anything specific to this model I should look for or check out upon receipt? Will be my first ///M but 8th BMW (E28, E34, E28, E36, E46, E90, F36, F80). Yes, I'm an addict.
