seriously, tho...we had a blast when we went. time on the test track with the instructor outside of the car on walkie talkie, skid pads, the SUV on the crazy terrain, the intro to the car....all of it.

this go round? just gimme the time on the track and the keys to the car. well, i *guess* we'd need an intro since its a new model. but there's no real need...or interest...in touring the plant, again. it was dope but there's no need in a repeat.

our first time at PCD was in 2015. then we did ED in 2018. for the same model. so, other than the pomp and circumstance (food), the actual delivery was quick because we already *knew* the car for 3 yrs, prior.

Seat time on the track in a car that's just like yours, X Series factory tour (less the X1/2), and the extended 1-1 time with an expert going through every detail of your car. Did I mention burning the tires off of their car?

Congrats! Nice color combo.

Congrats!!
I'd do PCD in a heart beat, but I'm too anal to get on the interstate without any paint protection lol.
So glad you had a great time.
Mine just went into production, so it'll be a long wait for me.
The painted front reflector I got from you is in my drawer waiting for delivery.

I hope you don't have to wait too long. You're in for an incredible ride!

I did PCD in 2015 for my M235. Got to take my dad along with me. Loved every minute of it.

Here are some additional interior pics as promised. These were taken within my garage so the lighting isn't great.

FWIW...I'm kind of a pain in the ass when it comes to detailing and new car delivery. The car I picked up at the Performance Center was the best prepped car I have ever received.

It's kind of sad to look at it there and realize that it's the cleanest the car will ever be. I'm never going to get the wheels that clean again

I couldn't agree more.

Nice. Great combo. Can’t wait to do PCD.

Are dealers supposed to agree to PCD if asked or does it depend on certain things?

It shouldn't be dependent on anything, except that the car is not already in-transit or on the dealer lot. If you request it early enough, it's easy for the dealer to set up.

Did those all weather floor mats in the back come with the car?

No, I purchased the front, rear, and trunk liners from GetBMWParts. Here are the links if you're interested.

Front Floor Liners
Rear Floor Liners
Cargo Mat

Thanks I already pre-bought them so I just wanted to make sure that they didn't come with a car already!
