I'm sorry to read about your trouble, it's still great to see you taking this so well. We have had our share already of people having a complete melt down over the cars, and this will only get worse.

Just imagine that you did a mini European Delivery, you drove 200 mile around the 'Ring, and then you dropped off the car, and it is going to take 10 days to ship it back to you.

Joking aside, hope you will get your car back ASAP and this will be no more problem.

Just remember what I said about humor when this happens to me. Every time I gloat as I did in the other thread, it bites back big time. We will see about humor then.

Perfect, my fiance is asking how I can keep cool buying an 80k car and having it in the shop the first month for two weeks this is exactly what I am going to say. I did ask the dealer to litterly check every part of the car while waiting for two weeks to make sure everything else is good to go and they agreed they will (I hope they do).

They will smile and nod to appease you and then roll their eyes and say "fucking BMW owners, if you want a Toyota buy one. These cars are engineered to the limits of modern technology for the money. They're gonna' break." Or something like that.

Oh and tell your GF you can't stay calm, and it's really making you crazy,
but a blowjob would help.

I don't think they will pull from a "sold" customer "M", the dealers or BMW NA themselves order company cars all the time, they did when we want to Germany to pick up ours and BMW Canada ordered 4 of them if I remember correctly that went on the trip with us and now is on the ship coming to Halifax. I am sure they will take it from one of them.

By the way your a better man then me you really kept your hand on your shoulders!

Yeah, IMO you gotta plan for these cars to got tits up. You don't want that to happen and you really really really hope it doesn't ... but if it does you just gotta roll with it.

Some dick keyed the shit out of my E93 in the SFO parking garage. (I told my wife not to park there but that's a different story)

After the repair it was awesome to have my e93 back!

I think the key for minimizing any future problems with this new engine is driving it very soft till break in and not even thinking about pushing it till eveything gets adjusted. (I'm not saying you did) Thats what I'm gonna do once I take delivery next month, Im gonna drive it a lil faster than a prius till my oil change ..Good luck tho and make sure you get something out of this.. bmw is usually good with this stuff

First year problems. Just like clockwork. I hope everyone buying these first set of cars goes in eyes wide open. Expect your cars to take longer than normal to diagnose and source the part because they will be learning as they go.

Just try to get a nice loaner. Realize you are doing all us LCI and used owners a service we really appreciate

I'm actually expecting not to have any problems at all. I'm fairly sure that a majority of first year car owners will not have any "first year" related problems.

Seeing how the transmissions and rear end are not new products. I don't think that problems with them should be attributed to first year model issues. If they don't know how to work on the rear end of an F8X, I guess means that no M5/M6s have had a rear end problem. That being said, this rear end must be pretty reliable.

Agreed.

Furthermore, the 1st year talk is nonsense. First build (ie. few weeks) can be risky, but after that the rest of the 1st year will be fine save for anomalies that appear in every MY.

Oh yeah... I forgot something. According to this thread http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=901686 there will not be an LCI for the F8X. Here's a quote from the referenced thread "M3/M4 don't get LCI, will continue until EOP of the corresponding F3x body style."

I feel sorry for the fool that buys my used M4. Cosmetically it will still look good, but mechanically it will be used up. I'm glad there are people out there that believe they are getting a better deal buying used. If it wasn't for them I wouldn't be able to afford to buy new cars so often.
