Haha looking forward to it.

I think the reason is there are usually two types of dealers I have come across in SoCal.

1.) Talks a ton and knows little details about the cars, other than what they lazily looked up online for a few minutes, or obvious things you can see with your own eyes.

2.) The quieter no hassle guy, understands M clients know the vehicles well, doesn't really try to sway you one way or another, answers questions without trying to definitively make the decisions for you.

Neither of these types usually make for good content, I have seen some guys use women to get clicks ahemm... Rusnak...the cringiest of cringe. I think this is why BMW hired a bunch of influencers for this launch. A guy like Marques Brownlee doing a review would be great.

I've recently partnered with a dealership here in NJ and I'm slated to drive the M3 when it arrives next month. At the very least, you can expect beautiful images of it. But I can usually provide more, given my extensive experience with the brand and various M3 gens.

I had fun watching this video. The interior of this car looks classy.

Has anyone paid close attention to the interior of both cars? When the SA starts each car, the digital display shows what looks to be an X3. What is this all about? Very bad BMW! On this car or any car, I would expect it to show the exact matching model in the graphic. This occurred when it showed the door ajar graphic. FYI - at about 19:47 and 22:00.

pre-production models

production cars will show the right car in the right color

Thank you for clarifying this. I did later notice that the display showed correctly in some other videos.
