By the way, the bmw rep did confirm a change in the 2016 m3/m4 exhaust sound. He said the exh has the same part # but bmw made changes. After hearing it in person, the exh does sound different in a good way. Sounds deeper and barely any rasp on cold starts. Exh also sounds throatier during revs. So far im loving the m3! Dream come true! Now its time for the plant tour then off i go to austria.

Im pretty sure youll get the michellins. The rep said my 16 m3 was the first with hes seen with michellins. The others were continentals. I think he was talking out of his ass on that one. Anyways, safe travels.

I have an 11 AM flight out of Munich airport back to the states. Do you all think dropping the car off at 8:30 AM the morning of at Munich Airport leave enough time to get to the airport / gates. Not sure how long dropping off the car / paperwork takes. Thanks!

Hotel Kolfuschgerhof
Hotel Kolfuschgerhof is in the Sella Dolomites, in Northern Italy. It's only about four hours South coming from Munich.
The hotel is run by a nice family. Dagmar, their daughter is very nice and speaks fluent English. They are also big car lovers and will put your beloved car inside their hotel garage IF you ask nicely. The food and ambiance is very nice here. AND the hotel is out in the country... so its very quiet and you can see the stars at night. Its a great place to stay. They even have a very nice wellness pool and massage/sauna area that is included with the room rates. When we stayed there they even had someone play the piano every evening. Its a classy place to stay. Go with their "upgraded" deluxe rooms... trust me on this. Hotel Kolfuschgerhof Via Rönn 7 39033 Colfosco-Corvara, (Province of Bolzano - South Tyrol) Italy tel. +39 0471 836188 email: info@kolfuschgerhof.com http://www.kolfuschgerhof.com/eng/Default.asp more on the Dolomites region...

Great meeting you today V3rbatim! Picked up my M3 today and got all the goods, including Michelins!
Such an awesome car. Got her up to 110 mph on the autobahn and was itching to go faster but I keep thinking about the break-in period. Any one go faster during this time? Safe to do so? Edit: internet sucks here. I have better pics but will have to wait till I get better internet!

Tatzelwurmstraße, Café Winklstüberl, Kraftquelle Schlossblic and Tiroler Hof Kufstein
FYI... I've been meaning to post this info for a long time. Here are some of my ED tips for nice places to visit in the Munich area.
Dackel Tatzelwurmstraße The Tatzelwurmstraße is Germany's version of the Tail of the Dragon. IF you start out from Brannenburg, go to the center of the town and at the traffic light HEAD straight up the hill into what looks like a residential road. before you know it there will be a man at a toll booth. Pay your two euros and let the FUN begin! Its starts out quite narrow and thru the woods. Then slowly the road becomes wider and wider and smoother. You can follow this road all the way into Kufstein, Austria. It makes for a great way beaking in a new engine on ED. Lots of switch backs and winding roads. Be forewarned that as once you cross into Austria the local Polizei tend to be rather strict in enforcing the local speed limits. You do not need a vignette driving this way into Austria. You will only need a vignette to drive on Austria Autobahns - once you leave Kuftstein and get onto the Autobahn. You can buy a vignette at any gas station in Southern Germany or even in the town of Kufstein. Be aware that starting this year(Jan, 2015) you now need a vignette in order to cross into Austria from Germany. In the past you could take the first Austrian exit(Kufstein) and buy a vignette. Not anymore!!! There are always Austrian Polizei waiting at the bridge as you cross into Austria on the Autobahn. So buy a vignette before hand IF you are traveling by Autobahn. No vignette and its a 120 euro fine(cash!). Also apply the vignette sricker FULLY to you windshield. IF you put it on half way(so to remove it later) the Polizei WILL fine you 500 euros - bc they think you are moving it from car to car. Brannenburg --> Tatzelwurmstraße, 83080 Oberaudorf --> Kufstein, Austria https://www.google.de/maps/dir/Brann...8237!3e0?hl=en Café Winklstüberl... Café Winklstüberl Leitzachtalstraße 68 83730 Fischbachau www.winklstueberl.de Café Winklstüberl is one of those old school places. They have awesome hand made cakes and pies. Many, many people come here on the weekends. During the week not so many people. Still even with the buses and fast cars that stop by for a "coffee and cake" break - THIS is the place to be! A simply wonderful taste of Bavaria culture. They also have rooms here... but I have never stayed here. One cool thing is upstairs they have a huge coffee grinder collection. Don't miss stopping here. Its only about a 45 minute drive from Munich. Makes for a perfect "pit-stop" on your way South. Tiroler Hof Kufstein For some of THE BEST schnitzel, go visit the Tiroler Hof. Order the Kalbsschnitzel. They are also a hotel, but its kind of basic I stayed there once, and it was enough. I really recommend driving ten minutes further and staying at the Kraftquelle Schlossblick Hotel bellow... But the food here at the Tiroler Hof is excellent! Tiroler Hof Kufstein Am Rain 16 6330 Kufstein Austria www.tirolerhof-kufstein.at/en Tiroler Hof Kufstein Kufstein's Festung (fortress castle)... Hotel Seminar Kraftquelle Schlossblick Embach 1 6320 Angerberg Austria The Kraftquelle Schlossblick is one of my all time favorite hotels. The rooms are very nice and spacious. Lots of wood and nature on offer here. They have horses near by, lots of wild life and its sooo quiet here. You can look down the road and see Schlossblick(Castle view) of Mariastein(a near by Castle). The rooms are very reasonable (under 100 euros) and include a four course dinner and breakfast. The family that runs the hotel is really nice and their daughter Katrin is fluent in English. I've stayed here many times and they have never disappointed me. A wonderful and simple hotel. You can even go hiking or cross country skiing in the summer/winter. I prefer to drive the curvy roads near by. A really great little Alpine road/drive is driving from the Schlossblick hotel and to Brandenberg, Austria. It's a short 45 minute drive that dead ends in Brandenberg(A) but it's a fun little road. https://www.google.de/maps/dir/Hotel....4906621?hl=en Schlossblick(Castle view) of Mariastein(a near by Castle)

If you have any tips/suggestions for people while visiting Munich, I would greatly appreciate it. I've been there before, but need to spend a Saturday/Sunday doing fun local stuff before I pick up my car on Monday. We love scenic places, and restaurants with good schnitzel, spaetzle and beer! |

Don't stress too much about break in (at least I didn't) and just enjoy the car. Try and limit your yellow/red lining and you will be fine.
