Yes was able to get one, midweek was still pretty wide open! I'm surprised given all the dealerships I get spam from that nobody emailed about it.
The funny thing is I have literally been looking for a driving lesson like this and had been prepared to pay for it!

Is it actually 90 minutes? I have to Uber back and forth since I'm currently short a car, want to preschedule one for the pickup.

There's a bunch of things to do there like test out electric vs gas engines… you can go on a leisure ride in a bunch of different cars, you can do the autocross… they have the new i4 …. You will def be there 90 min.

Oh and I got the 1K OL coupon in my email. So you'll get one too!

Can you apply the OL coupon to a build order? How soon after the event did you get your coupon?

I'm signed up for the event in Wash D.C. on June 12th. My car is scheduled to arrive mid-June. I'm wondering if I can apply the OL coupon.

No. This is the Tannhauser— I paid the 99 cents for the satellite update. The ship goes dead in between journeys unless you pay for the satellite service lol.

It's really meant for in stock only but I've read dealers can honor it if they want to. I'll use the shortage argument if my dealer tries to not honor it lol.

Coupon came 24 hours after the event.

The home stretch!!!

ArcticBlueM440i · 05-20-2021, 03:06 PM

That was pretty fun! Cars looked great. The green in person is KILLER, though my arctic blue looked great too.

Short but fun. Definitely want to do the M day thing next year.

dwj6211 · 05-21-2021, 11:34 AM

AND SHE ARRIVED!!!!

Now we enter the most annoying phase… waiting for transport to dealer, and the "paperwork from bmw". How soon do you all think it will be? Who do you think will take delivery first?! Lol.

dwj6211 · 05-22-2021, 02:15 PM

Annnnnnd she left. So we all know that our cars are currently on the ground in NJ. Lol. This is seriously the worst part. Knowing it's so close.

They should go through the VPC fairly quickly then get shipped off 👏🏼

ArcticBlueM440i · 05-24-2021, 08:19 AM

Back to "at the port" so I know it got off the boat!

Spoke to the genius this morning.

They said that the vehicle was "acknowledged" by the VDC today, and has a processing completion target date of the 27th, and should be assigned a carrier that day as well, to arrive at my dealer on the 28th.

Not ideal, as my lease is up tomorrow…. But still makes it in time for the holiday weekend.

I'm so tempted to drive to the VDC to try and get a glimpse lol.
