992 gets my vote for sure. R8 the biggest headturner though, you can get a V10 for around $150? Im assuming this is used then?

Yeah I don’t think I’ll ever buy new

We ordered i40 sport package - davit gray etc. that’s the thing - have zero clue where we are with anything. Rep told me over a month ago slated for April production. Haven’t seen anything or gotten anything, it’s turning us off big time.what did you order? what point in production is it at, can you track it in myBMW?
The American option would be a viper, I think you’re on the right track with a 992 and gtr. I love the R8 but I think if you’re looking for a “ fun “ car it’s heavier than the other two options and you’ll notice itI was about to trade the AMG GTS in for a gtc. Slept on it and was like…you know what? I still wouldn’t be truly happy with that so now I’m about to trade it in for an amg gtr instead. Talked them down to $153k.
Gonna go swing by Audi and look at a v10 r8 and a 992 c4s tomorrow to see if either of them would make me change my mind. I doubt it’ll happen though, but anything else around $150k I should consider?
Don't come in here talking about a Prelude and not having some pictures. LOL I have a Prelude and would love to see some pics of it.My buddy copped a mint prelude on Washington for 5k. Drove it to mn put it on BAT and sold it for 20k.
If you aren't happy with the process talk to a manager or just leave. We have, you have to many car options. Another dealer or another car.Gentlemen. Wife is not pleased with how the BMW purchase/sales process has gone. We ordered 2/25 and our guy has basically brushed us aside. I can do a whole other post on salesmanship but I digress.
Should we consider - like really - the Tesla M3? I do like their charging network and although no tax credit, they’re pretty comparable pricing wise.
Awd Electric corvette coming soon.
I have alot of mixed feelings..... mostly negative
Damn that's beautiful. What's the Safecraft belt-cable looking thing on the inside?Heres a gt2 rs clubsport
LMAOOO laughed too hard at thisFind a qtip that will fit through the holes and clean em one by one.

If youre looking for order updates/transparency, Tesla will likely be a step in the wrong directionWe ordered i40 sport package - davit gray etc. that’s the thing - have zero clue where we are with anything.

What do you guys use to clean leather seats? I hate the shiny stuff. Someone told me a little baby shampoo in water is fine

Could it be different lighting cause the different color in the pics? Natural light versus fluorescent lights.Chemical Guys leather cleaner...It's very neutral and doesn't leave your seats with that sticky/shiny look. It was on sale for like $2.99 at Amazon a while back.
I use that with a horsehair brush and give it a quick wipe down, then I use their leather conditioner on top.
Before and after. I dunno why the color looks completely different lmao but you get the idea.
You should see it in mybmw if the order has been entered (I can’t remember all the diff statuses). Do you know if it has even been submitted? You could still be on a wait list, but if you have a build week assigned you are good. I have a good ca who kept me up to date but generally he didn’t know more than I did by checking the app. You can get more specific details about status and such over on bimmerforums fyi.Chemical guys is legit. Cleaned our interior on the MDX before selling it in January and was a believer afterwards.
Finally got a call back from my BMW sales guy. It's hilarious that I'm buying a damn near $70,000 car but treated like a non client. If I treated my clients like this, I'd have no work.
Production slated for May - target delivery July/August.
We'll test drive the Tesla 3M for comparison sake....It's not that I need absolute transparency, but when I'm building a damn car it'd be nice to have some touchpoints. On a DTC model like Tesla, I'm less worried on that aspect since their process is likely more refined (in terms of production/assembly/take delivery).
I like the stock wheels. You make it sound like they are steelies with hubcaps
Tint done , waiting on a tune from APR and looking into getting wheels but not sure yet
