Did you get the HK sound system?

Haha, unfortunately not! I really hope you get yours tomorrow!

I do have the HK. It sounds good, bass isn't enough however, but I'm coming from a $15,000 custom audio set up.. On my old car.

But it's clean, and no plans to change!

Think you will find it will not meet the dimensions allowed,shipped mine airfreight with ECS Tuning was about $400 us,but this was special price after they could not ship MPE with UPS or FedEx .

Good news! The M2 MPE has just been approved for sale in Australia through the BMW dealer network . First shipment has nearly sold out, if you would like to put your name on one send me a PM.

Hey guys, had mine since late July. Put on about 3000km.

Done a few small trips to Mt Dande, Kinglake and Hotham.

Also sounds great in Traction mode if you haven't tried

Some pics:

Looks great. Interesting how it changes colour outside. The first and last photos are quite different.

Unmistakable shot of the BMW Melbourne car park.

Anyone thinking of doing any track days? I'm keen to do a day down at Phillip Island when I get the chance.

I used to do them with the BMW club, but my licence has expired. I think all we need is a daily CAMS C2 licence and to pass scrutineering which shouldn't be too much of a problem.

If anyone hasn't been around Phillip Island at speed, I strongly recommend you do it. One of life's great experiences.

Don't ask for recommendations for places to stay. You can't afford it.

Have you picked the car up yet or not!?!?

My personal opinion, but it's a waste of money. It will be over 5k including GST and fitment. It's not saving much weight over the stock unit nor is it adding any noticeable power and for me, the M2 sounds pretty damn good stock.

LOL@the comments.

I'm down for a day at PI. I did the last one with the Maserati club and the car was so easy to get speed out of it.

Jesus, that Bob guy needs PRN rectal valium ASAP. He's not the first person I've seen who cancelled their M2 order, got an RS3 instead and are bizarrely angry every time they hear about an M2.

Some people just couldn't wait so they bought a tarted up Golf and paid more money for it and realised in the end they should have been patient and waited for the M2.

Lol.

[ttimbo]

Even worse, they've learned the RS3 sedan will have the new, lighter, more powerful 5-pot engine

[gr0g]

Totally worth the wait, ordered mine in January n waited 8 months, wasn't really in a rush though as had my previous car for like 10 years.

I kind of forgot about it for a while until they called n said it was on the ship.

[Aust350z]

Saw my first M2 on the road yesterday. LBB crossing MacRob bridge South Yarra about 3.15pm.

Sounded fantastic. Jan can't come soon enough!

[roniiich]

Spotted 3 M2s yesterday. One LBB in ascot vale , one black one in Doncaster and a white one in Croydon. Any of the guys from here ?

He laughs until BMW announce the LCI M2 with 300kw S55 or B58 lol.

Besides, some of us will just sell the old one, buy the M2 and then the new RS3 next year. We don't all keep our cars that long.

It doesn't matter what you buy, Wayne -- there's always a faster car. You missed the irony in my post.
