It's really killing me
Just put in my VIN number and mine is coming , loaded on the ship this Friday, only coming late May though...aaargh
To prepare got some :-
1. BMW M-Sport Alcantara key covers to protect those precious keys !!
2. BMW M-Sport valve caps
3. BMW M Cap (Silver M-Sport logo)
4. BMW M Cap (Mulitcoloured logo)
Still thinking about the tinting as apparently depending on how dark you tint the side windows , the digital dashboard dims and you cannot brighten it as it thinks it is night time.
Anybody had any experience with this?, getting old so need bright light so would be very disappointed if this was the case.
This would make me skip the tinting.
In addition also thinking about the paint protection (Hydro Ceramic) for exterior at the dealer, but pretty expensive for $1250 so not sure about that.
Thanks to all for posting the ship web links , so GOOD !!!
Does anybody know what brand tyres the 330i Msport comes with, I saw a 330i in the showroom today and it had Pirellis , would the M-Sport have the same?
I heard the Michelins were the best fit.
Another question, is Apple Carplay for free now, when I looked through the forums I did see a post about this can anybody confirm that got the "Free confirmation e-mail from BMW"
Any other tips for preparation for the BIG EVENT ?
I would love to know what I can do before my BABY comes.
I was thinking of replacing the plastic paddle shifters with metal ones, I sat in a M2 the other day and those are the ones I want!!
Any idea of if this is possible on the M Sport Steering wheel. |
Haha your excitement is popping like popping candy!
Haven't seen any problems with window tint and auto dimming even with darkest legal (ie VLT 30-35%).
Ceramic coats vary in cost - $1250 is prob on the higher end.
Also it won't protect you against stone chips in the way PPF does. I ended up with a combination of both as needed better front protection.
Tyres will vary depending on shipment u less you specifically ask ur dealer to change them on delivery. Mine got stuck with the Potenzas...
Yes apple car play is free - emails came out early dec 2019. Pretty sure someone posted it somewhere in this chat
