CA just called me and said it arrives at the dealership Thursday! They must have sorted out the issue.

Going to pick it up Friday or Saturday!

What have/are you guys asking for when you take delivery? Obvs price isn't very negotiable, but I've asked for a full tank of gas and no front plate holes drilled. Anyone get any free swag?

Full tank of gas is standard when buying a new vehicle. I'm planning on asking for a t shirt, key chain and umbrella from their gift shop.

Good to know. This is my first new car so uncharted territory for me!

Endlessly and patiently. Apparently BMW now have "Genius" like Apple. Wonderfully helpful. Having spent the last 3 years with a Ford, I appreciate the better quality service you get through BMW. It's part of the premium cost and not a dig on Ford who I think has done a wonderful transformation of their lineup in the last decade

So apparently my CA told me I would have to pay CALI taxes for the car even though I will be registering in NEVADA. I always thought you pay taxes wherever you register the car. I will be issued a temporary drive off one way authorization so I can register the car in Vegas. He said since I will be driving off the lot I would have to pay taxes there but he's in the process of double checking for me. Anyone have experience with this?

I remember reading somewhere on here that there's some paperwork that can be done to make sure you're only out for the taxes in your state. I can't remember the details though.

Thank you!!

I'm at Steve Thomas BMW, so very close to Hueneme. It was unloaded off of the Porgy on 3/27, and arrived today, 3/29. The only accesory I had was the black kidneys.

I think any accessories other than that and maybe side gills add a few more days.

AW is such an awesome color. Just got my LBB but I'm going to question if AW wouldn't have been the best choice. Enjoy!!
