Wow that is an epic writeup, thanks for sharing. That is a great shade of blue!
Did u take delivery with the plastic wrap?
Some friends did do just that.
I did ponder to leave the plastic on, but just ended up letting the PDI folks do their jobs.
How many miles were on the car when it rolled off the truck?
Mine is also 330i NA. The 340i would be nice too, but it was so easy to grab an in transit car and got delivery in 2 days without waiting for months(been there done that too).
