PICK UP my BMW M2 LBB @ BMW of Ontario

Been waiting for this car about five months and finally picked up my 2016 BMW M2 on 6/27. I placed the order on January 27 at BMW of Ontario. Thankfully, they don't markup on this car. My friend Kirk EINSER M refer me to CA Oscar. He kept me updated during the long wait. In this 150 days, I kept tracking the production and shipping status. Finally, M2 arrives in California on 6/24 and I brought it home on 6/27. It is the very first allocation in the dealership. Really appreciate everyone that helps me at BMW of Ontario. When I see this LBB beut, I felt that the long wait was worth it. Kirk and I will start to mod it like his EINSER M rebirth!! The first item on the mod list was checked. I hope we can do it better than EISNER M. If you would like to engage in this build process, please follow me on instagram @nicklin_m2 Thank you!!

Welcome home

First day driving M2. So much better than I expected.
I was surprised this beast has so much power than my previous modified 135i. And its definitely looks better!!
Put smile on my face all day

Coding

Coding by master Alex (Alex@Alpine). It release all the hidden functions on your bimmer. The following are the options I did:
*Windows up/down with key
*Folding Mirrors with key (hold to fold on lock)
*Change one touch triple blink to 5 blinks
*Remove Amber Side Marker Lights in headlights
*Flashing Brake Lights (Brake Force Display) (Upon hard braking the brake lights will flash)
*Door handle LED on in reverse
*Increase Ambient Lighting (standard 60%)
*Activate DVDinMotion (Play Videos on the go and stopped)
*Activate Video through USB & in motion.

Link for more information:

Thank you Alex!! Highly recommend!!

Nick and I been planning this since I sold the 1M. The build is going to be galactically epic, we are sure of it. Wowzer, your 10k of BMW M performance parts to get here next week for the first evolution.

Really can't wait for this to get spun into orbit. Congrats again on making this a reality and have faith in the build. It's a lot of work but you'll meet a lot of people who you will call friends for life.
