The manual shifter reminds of something you buy on an adult site with optional batteries.

Not a turn in site. shame.

Gotta love a "sold" customer car going out on a test drive. Best quote is people on test drives with low credit scores who don't want the car floor it😂

It's Friday afternoon, waiting for the BMW NA "take down"...only a matter of time

EDIT: I'm trying to figure out why two test drives in a G80 6MT, only difference is the colors and wheels.

So, wait, those guys driving that weren't the buyers? That is bullshit, if that was my car I'd be pissed off. I went to a dealer the other day and some sales guys had blatantly just been joy riding in a (non-HEA) new M3, you could smell the burning rubber.

Several videos out now with chucklenuts doing burnouts in cars with four miles on the clock. The shame.

I have the impression all 6-MT are going to the US. Of the ~40 dealer cars offered here there are zero with manual.

Peterglen · 03-05-2021, 06:12 PM

PCD or nothing for this reason

Can't you just track when the custom car you ordered is being unloaded from the truck and tell them not to remove any stickers or do any delivery checklist?

Just go when it's unloaded and tell them not to wash or do anything to it. That's my plan.

antzcrashing · 03-05-2021, 06:50 PM

Looks good in these color combos

Ikester19 · 03-05-2021, 06:53 PM

Man, the G80 looks better and better as time goes on! Really liking the front too

Nothing wrong with it if the car belongs to the person your speaking of.. plus he owns a shop so he's going to be doing development on this said vehicle. I'm sure he can afford to fix it if he breaks something lol.

Dealership needs to prep the car, there is a check-list that has to occur. I know for a fact that the PCD will not deliver a car with the shipping wrap still on.

That's why I have always P1 factory ordered for either ED/PCD or PCD (unfortnatley now it's only PCD

)

You can't have them not wash the car and leave the stickers on? I thought you could do that? I don't imagine them flooring it driving it around with a bunch of stickers still there.

snareman · 03-05-2021, 07:28 PM

I don't think SPY looks right on a sedan.

cisternachyli · 03-05-2021, 09:27 PM

Wow that green looks beautiful! The last green car in our family was my Dad's 1997 Camry; younger me totally was into green!

Saw one in person today. I thought it looked amazing but it definitely is a "loud" color and probably not for everyone. It should look fantastic with all the carbon fiber bits.

Some dealerships may leave the shipping wrap on if requested, but the PC is no go. The risk the customer takes is if there is a paint flaw that the shipping wrap covers up-- that's why the Performance Center will always remove and repair prior to delivery.

This is why it works so well IMO lol. It's just so ridiculous on a big sedan that it's fun.

The cars look good. Gosh, I just wish body colored side skirts, etc. could be optioned. IND is going to be busy. Lol!
