Had an opportunity to take photos today of the BMW M4 Ice Racer as the garage was open at the BMW Driving Academy. Enjoy, stunning frozen finish in person.

Major traffic yesterday leaving Nordschwanstein Castle to Kronberg, that a planned 4 hr drive took 7 hrs and wasn?t able to make it to the Ring, as Nurburgring was an other 2 hours from the Schlosshotel Kronberg (highly recommend hotel to stay at to impress your wife with English Tudor styling).

Ibiza's wife shot it on a iPhone 7plus using potrait mode. She's a lifever for ED. Here she is hauling a** on the Autobahn at 100mph+. My trick to repeat ED'S.

Nice! My wife is an ED lover also. The trick is to get them to love the cars like we do. I've succeeded

She's been on me to do advanced M school lately.

Sorry, I?m not a 6M. At least the DCT is a ?money shift? insurance protection from a blown crank hub.

Car wash at BMW Neiderlassung Frankfurt, highly recommend for euro 9,90, then 1 mike to BLG Logistics Frankfurt. Just park on level 2, go down to level 0 and leave the key with a service advisor. Just make sure you have your VIN number. Waiting area has an espresso machine and San Pellegrino/Acqua Panna self-service. Love the color boards of available BMW colors within the dealership.

Lots of blanks to fill in between ED drop-off and upcoming PCD pick-up. Some photos today of the now 'grounded' 2015 435 vert, photo op outside of the Performance Center, ED plates still on upon turn in, and now the flight back up to GSP.

PCD pictures. PC delivery bays have the South Carolina natural light unlike the Welt photos which are taken under indoor light conditions.

Pictures of A-Workx, vehicle was driven directly from Welt to tuner.

This was the lowest mileage car he tuned, software had to be re-written for 93 octane and 1st US spec vehicle.

All good things have to come to an end, as I wanted to "close" out this ED/PCD adventure since I turned in the lease this past week. On my way to lease turn in, I passed the BMW Performance Center and felt it was fitting for one last round of photos. Unfortunately, my replacement 2020 M4 convertible was at first cancelled by BMW NA at status 111 back in May, then was "resurrected" with a new production number a few weeks latter. I was informed that the vehicle was in status 150, but the re-order didn't have all of the options from the status 111 VIR apparently due to "COVID-19 part restraints" and last month of F83 production, that I declined to accept. I will patiently await the new G83 SOP for next July 2021, as in the intern, I'll enjoy my 2018 X5M and really looking forward to the 2021 X5M competition replacement in a few months. Hopefully, BMW NA will resurrect the ED program in a few years.

Awesome Photos and experience! The car looked beautiful! I picked up my F80 used, but the goal for the next one was to order new and do a trip similar to yours. Hopefully they'll bring back the ED!

Thank you. I'm done tuning, but it was great experience to get the Stage II tune done in Germany, pass US Customs, BMW VDC staff and the PCD staff, especially with the catless DP's installed.

Give it a few years for COVID to pan out, as BMW NA had a rebound in sales the 3rd quarter compared to the 2nd quarter, but still down 16% YTD — then hopefully ED will return to bump up sales
