Featured on BIMMERPOST.com In the recent years and before Covid I have read a lot of threads on Bimmerpost about the ED experience. Unfortunately BMW does not offer ED anymore to customers in the US and Canada. Thats why I would like to share with you my first delivery in the BMW mothership. Growing up in the 70s and 80s I became an absolute BMW fanboy. My dad used to own several BMW back in the day: 2002, E12, E28, E30 and E46. My second car was a 1986 E30 in grey metallic with BBS wheels followed by E83, E85, E89 and E90 and a Mini Cooper S. The M3 will be the successor to my 2020 Tesla Model 3 Performance. After taking delivery today I will head down to the Austrian Alps for a few days.

Great package and congratulations!
I wish they will revive ED, but I don't see it happening, are u going to be spotted in Malibu?

Dude, you were so close to what looks like a G87 parked next to the building in that first picture.
I say you go back and take like 50 up close pictures to post for us.

Congratulations! Looks beautiful and of course the first thing I noticed was the manual shifter! I haven't seen one of those in a while.

Great post, great color, great car, and most of all great transmission!
I am SO glad I got one ED in before they stopped this wonderful program. I really hope BMW reinstates it for NA.

This has always been a dream of mine, and I'm pretty upset I won't be able to fulfill it living in the us.
Regardless, congratulations, and welcome to the G80 manual club!

Thank you all! The drive down to the Austrian Alps was a blast.
I have taken the first two pics at the M GmbH headquarters in Garching. Unfortunately I have used the crappy camera from my iPad and there was a fence between me and the G87. In the Munich plant I saw quite a few G80, but still pre-LCI. There were also chassis parts from the G81 touring. No signs from the 2023 LCI so far. Here are some more pictures from the M3 in Austria side-by-side to our dog and grocery hauler our Volvo XC60. Today we will drive back home to Frankfurt, Germany. PPF is scheduled for next week.
