Damn I hope mine doesn't take that long. Did you get MPE? I'm hoping to get mine before the US election... just in case the whole world goes to sh*t

Yes. I have the MPE. some say it is port installed.

Has nothing to do with MPE. If your car has to get on a train in Halifax, the timeline is about the same. CN Rail is a clusterf*ck in Halifax at all times.

In my case, my M2 got to Halifax on Oct. 12th...and it just got to my dealership tonight!! I had no port-installed accessories or rear diff replacement required....that was insanely fast! I am absolutely ecstatic....well except for the fact I got the shitty Contis.

They let me drive it around the parking lot, had the biggest grin on my face circling around the lot and I only got to use the first 2 gears haha.

My SA told me that there is a white M2 w/DCT that will make it to Ottawa (Elite BMW) in 2 weeks and is now available due to an order cancellation ..if anyone is interested I can put you in contact with him.

I'm surprised more publications haven't made this comparison and maybe it's just me but the car really feels like an FR-S on steroids. It's much more focused than the M235i and much more fun than the M3/M4. It's basically everything I want in a sporty car and the only one I like significantly better is the 911. So this'll do me fine until the inevitable Porker.

Over a year's worth of waiting but it was worth it overall. Helluva thing.

Congrats on finally getting your new toy! I know a few people who were pulled into the dealership to see (but not drive) an M2 being delivered and figured it was yours. Can't wait to see it around. Fyi the cops have been out a lot lately along the big bend on Kains road in case you like to rip along there like I do on occasion.

Yes it's port installed. On your order screen (dealer portal), you will see status "port campaign" when your car is at VPC Halifax.

Theses days pass really fast, and are forgotten even faster once you get the car!

I think I saw you on Oxford west other night going along. I had EB 228i...awaiting an m2 allocation currently.

Thanks for the heads up! I have a couple country roads nearby that I like better but will keep my eyes peeled since this thing is plenty quick enough to get in trouble by accident.

Hey all

Does anyone know what is included in the Vehicle Care Kit?

My Sales Rep told me it includes winter mats and some car cleaning stuff. I will be purchasing the M2 OEM winter mats, does anyone know if they are the OEM M2 winter mats that are included?

I'm thinking of telling them I don't want it and just sourcing the OEM mats outside...although I would still probably have to purchase from the service counter as I haven't seen any reliable online vendors for the M2 OEMs.

Any info appreciated. thanks.

Not sure what that is. On my purchase agreement, the OEM winter mats are called out specifically, with a cost of $180. No mention anywhere about a vehicle care kit.

Very expensive for winter mats and cleaning stuff IMHO. Same for wheel lock: they should be free!

Thanks EX-MINI, $180? That's great, I will tell them to remove this and just get the standard winter mats alone. Thanks!

It's probably a specific "kit" from your dealer.

I think on my 228i they bundled a bunch of things into a line-item on the agreement, when I took delivery they had given me the winter mats, BMW air freshener, travel mug, keyrings, etc. If they're providing winter mats then they are almost certainly going to be the OEM mats but whether they're the "Performance Winter Mats" (i.e. gray & black - https://www.getbmwparts.com/partloca...gid=4462&tab=2) or the plainer black rubber mats is probably a question for your SA to clarify.

When I finalize my M2 I'll try to avoid these add-ons, I may keep my current mats from my 228i or get different mats.

Yeah, I figured it was a dealer specific package, but unless they're the all black winter mats, I'm not interested. I had already requested they remove it a few days after I signed the purchase agreement because I though $440 was a lot for mats and misc. stuff I probably wouldn't want or use.

Thanks all.
