With the spoiler as a port accessory, not sure if it can still be modified. Have the email from the CA stating the "Pro" was added to the build, including my email showing the correct code. Guessing they fat fingered the order or just read the pricing wrong.

I am going to ask for an updated build sheet from the CA.

Any other accessories you're adding at port? The front splitter I think on the LCI looks great and gives the front a more aggressive look

You should be fine, I ordered all of my port accessories while it was crossing on the boat. But as you said they do show up in the "my garage" build sheet so you should be able to see it there, mine updated within a couple days.

Let me see if I can get a good online picture of it on the LCI. Was that the one on the press release White 550i? Whats the price on that? This it?



Got the build sheet from the CA. Just like you guys caught, they had the wrong one. They were able to update it. Good catch everyone!

Or is this the one?

I love those, but the m performance part for the front splitter and grills aren't out yet, they won't be out until Jan 2021 according to BMWNA.

[rccarps2]

It's finally here!! I think....

Stalking my dealers Instagram page. Certainly looks like it. Can see the new headlight and the M mirror. Color matches too. Going to take a ride up there tomorrow.

Now if they can only figure out the stop sale issue. Can't take delivery until 11/11 anyway (BMWCCA rebate).

[rccarps2]

Well, here she is. Hoping to pick it towards the end of this coming week.

[ashmostro]

Beaut!

Hopefully the stop-sale will be resolved by then...

[ashmostro]

BTW, Snapper Rocks looks REALLY nice with the carbon accents. I’d love to see it next to Atlantis Blue to compare the hues.

Great choice!

Oh wow- that looks fantastic.

I've been seriously considering trading in my m550 on an order for a M5c and snapper rocks blue was my #1 choice... photos of your new ride settles it.

All I can say is "wow" and enjoy!

Very nice OP!!!

IKR....oh well. Putting all seasons on it right after I am allowed to pick it up anyways. Stupid sales hold.

The climate around here IMO doesn't quite justify a straight winter set. Had good luck over the past 3 years on my M550i swapping back and forth all seasons and summers on the stock wheels.

Local tire company will come right to my office and swap them in my parking lot for $100, total.

Very nice. Should have car soon

You’ll never notice a difference, on the street, if you put on a good set of all season tires. Only thing you’ll notice is a better ride.

I’ve put all season on several cars and never went back. Sold the summer tires. I don’t track most of my cars I bought, no issues at all on the street.

Enjoy! It’s a great car!

Totally agree. Got a set of BFGoodrich g-Force COMP-2 A/S All-Season tires sitting in my warehouse right now. Soon as I get a p/u date for the car I am booking the tire appointment.

I am going to probably leave the A/S on until the last spring before I turn the car back in. At that point I will pull the summers out of storage and put them back on. That way I don't have to worry about a tire charge at lease turn in.

Hopefully next week your car will be cleared. It’s just software is what I’m being told. Had my 1200 mile service yesterday. Unfortunately have to go back for the programming.

Any idea how long to Savannah and then on to Century BMW in Greenville, SC?

Call the genius line and get the ship its on. They should also be able to give you the ships ETA into Savannah. With the ships name you can also track it online through a few different websites.

Mine took just under a week from the time the boat hit the port to when it was delivered to the dealer. That also included the installation of the Pro spoiler at the VPC. Mine came into Newark, NJ and was driven down to my dealer in the Philly area.

Port to dealer times are dependent on if the software fix has been released. I would imagine if there is a delay in that, the car will sit at the VPC until resolved.

Also, from memory, I think once it hits the port the Genius line should be able to give you an ETA into your dealer.

Nice build!

Poor choice of wording by me.

My dealer gets all its European cars in through Newark. It was hauled down on a standard car hauler.

I think I put a few screen shots earlier in this thread of it on the hauler.
