A question for anyone who knows: What happens in the event of a-- god forbid-- accident which requires that the car be repaired before being returned to BMW for shipment home?
Yes, Euro maps. My understanding is it is $0 deductible and covers everything. However, they've switched providers (used to be Allianz) and it no longer covers the Nurburgring...something to be aware of.
It wasn't clear to me if the the US maps were already loaded on the car. They give me a thumb drive with euro maps. The delivery specialist put it on for me and he told me not to remove it till I drop off the car. I had to unplug and plug back the thumb drive a couple time times because the maps won't load. Other than that, the maps worked fine generally. In one instance, I was turned around a bit because the roads were closed. Connected drive wasn't functional so any traffic/road closures weren't flagged. I relied on google maps in that one instance.

On the insurance front, it is still Allianz. The contract explicitly states that driving on a race track isn't covered. Other than that, it covers accidents and theft with 0 deductible.
