MY2017 LBB 6Speed - From Rolex 24 to Performance Center Delivery

This thread will be the journal of my 2017 LBB M2..

Like the title states, it all started during the Rolex 24 Hrs at Daytona. Saw the M2 for the first time and although I tried avoiding it I was hooked the week after..

PCD time lapse video:








Started making tons of calls to many local dealers until I got a straight story about how to possibly get one..

Long story short, I put my name on two list in Florida.. tried a third dealer but they wanted 5K to get on the list so I passed..

My timeline is as follows (might be off a bit):

April 2nd - I jumped on two lists waiting for allocations (2nd on one list, 7th on the other)
June 16th - Got a call about an allocation ready for my list position! (first list, the person in 1st place dropped a week prior)
July 12th - Production started
July 20th - Production completed
July 21st - Released to carrier
July 29nd - Shipped
Aug 12th - Arrived at US
Aug 29th - Arrived at BMW Performance Center
September 8th - Delivered



During the wait period I went back and forward on the color and changed the build a couple times..



And after much thought stuck with LBB!
