Anywhere to see the black wheels in SoCal?

I am debating whether to order the black wheels. Based on the pictures they look pretty ricey, but I would like to see them in person before making a decision. Does anyone know if there is any way I could see the wheels in Southern California?

Doubt it until dealers start getting demo cars in the spring. Your best bet would have been the LA, SF, and SD auto shows, but BMW waited till Detroit a few weeks later to debut those cars.

The cars might be at Bimmerfest in May, but dealers might have them before then.

Maybe hang around the BMW receiving facility in Point Hueneme?

The only up-coming auto show on the west coast that I know of is the Portland Auto Show in 2 weeks. i3 has been confirmed to be there, but there is no information on whether M3 and M4 will be there or not.

I feel your pain. It sucks all of our car shows came and went before the Detroit debut. I'm very tempted to fly out to Portland if they end up having them.

I sent mail to BMW customer support and BMWCCA to ask about it. They got back to me and told me they are looking into it and will let me know. I will post here when/if they get back to me with useful information.

BMW of Portland says no. This, unfortunately, is a 2nd tier show.
