New bimmerpost member and 335xi coupe to add to the list

choopy · 01-24-2008, 08:21 PM

Whats up guys!? Just ordered my '08 alpine white/ coral red 335xi.
I'm from Illinois, a southwest suburb of Chicago, and found the car in New Jersey. I was pretty picky, and found the exact one i wanted. Premium, Sport, and cold weather package. Gray poplar trim, auto with paddle shift, nav, ipod. Im expecting it on Saturday and I can not wait!

I traded in an 2001.5 audi s4, car did me well and had 97000 miles, but it was time for something new!
Ill post pics as soon as I get it and looking forward to the forums!

Congrats! Good color choice, you'll love the red. We have practically the same car bar the ext. color, trim, and cold weather pkg.

Kinda confused about the poll...what's a T?

Ordered to the T means exactly the way you wanted it. My car was bought off the lot, so it wasn't ordered and can't be to a T. If you did order the car, but you decided to settle for a different option to get the vehicle sooner, that would also mean you didn't get it down to the T.

How are you getting the car from NJ to IL? Flying out there to drive it back? Whats the distance?

JSpira · 01-25-2008, 12:09 AM

The OP didn't order his car to a T. He found one on the lot that met his specs. Big difference.

Around 800 miles

Didn't order it! They just had it sitting on the lot. But mine was one of the first 5 in Virginia.

ALEXjules · 01-25-2008, 02:50 PM

Just ordered mine a couple weeks ago, should be here by the end of feb. I wanted a 6MT and it was impossible finding the one I wanted in southern California. Congrats on the new car btw.

choopy · 01-25-2008, 03:26 PM

yeah your right, it was already on the lot. But i configured the car first, then coincidentally found one just like it in NJ. Exactly the way i wanted it. The cars getting shipped to Orland Park Dealership, IL.

If I would have decided on an Audi, I would have ordered it to a TT.
