PASS! w00t!
Turns out the Shop Foreman here is a "chief" inspector and is actually involved with advisory board to the state on vehicle inspection issues and he is involved with the legislature on vehicle inspection issues. I found the right guy! |

The Shop Foreman would never have fudged that if the Windows were not legal in USA. Sets up the Dealership for massive lawsuit if someone is injured because of the windows being too dark. That said, I'd still get a Maryland Medical Waiver using the form I posted on the first page days ago as local or State LEO could stop and test you at anytime. |

I am just going to assume this was BMW of Annapolis and will say their service and collision shop are top notch. Just all around good people over there.

Congrats! Hopefully this is the end of the issue and you can now enjoy your new M3!
Oh, and I'm looking forward to hearing how you're going to spend Tintking's $1M and what your going to do with his car. That offer he made is totally enforceable in Internet court! Unfortunately, he has lost all credibility... Edited to add after the whole saga was said and done: But now Tintking has apologized and admitted he was wrong, restoring his credibility!

I feel tintking was trying to help so I hold no ill will. His style is a little different but he was contributing with expertise. In fact I have decided to refuse the $1M and the car.
I’m just going to drive this M3. I’ll moment later on my impressions but after 150 miles or so today I like. The electric steering is the weak link so far regarding initial feel of the car. Not terrible but will take some getting used to. |

ECS Tuning and my local parts guys, whom I know personally, confirmed the the S420 glass is restricted from being ordered to the US, so it's truly a unicorn. Jesus himself could not convince BMW to legally ship it to the US, unless it's fitted for an SUV, so try not to break them or your new thread will be titled "BMW refuses to sell me a window".. You sound like good peoples, glad it worked out for you.. Enjoy your new toy in good health! . |

Who do I have to speak to get them? I'm not even trying to challenging you, I honestly want to know to possible replace them on a 2020 M340i. My parts guys is just a sales associate but his parts manager 100% confirmed its not available. And he has the power to overwrite orders, but still confirms that they can't be ordered and Is even not coming up their system as an option. |

Exactly as I said 1) Car must be at Dealership for repair. 2) service must order through PUMA as is the case for all issues like this. The same procedure is true for the secondary 40ah $135 battery for the F30 AH3 that several had issues with and other odd parts. |

Car is home....finally.
2nd comment (criticism) of car. 20" wheels are too big. They look great but functional tradeoff is not worth it. Going to run them anyway...for now. |

A US hookup with the Acoustic Glass and privacy tinted parts would be divine but I'm already bracing myself for the cost and challenge.. |

If they added this post sale, it would not be tied to the VIN. I, of course make the assumption that this vehicle was US ordered and not shipped to the US post sale, something that a US service person may have done. |
