M2 CS delivery - Australia (HS - 6MT - 2NH - GLD 763M

Alpine* · 02-12-2021, 05:51 PM

She arrived in the deep of night, under the cloak of darkness for no ones eyes to see (excepting a inquisitive gentleman living nearby who came for a look see, he was impressed)

12:30AM
Unloaded, a quick few pics (a sneaky drive around the block) then down into its subterranean holding pen.

Beautiful, I was and am impressed, it just seems to be more 3er interior wise with all the merino leather, alcantara and gloss CF. Can’t wait to get her road legal and take her for a run.

It's Merino leather.

"Merino Leather
If you want your BMW leather to really impress your passengers, you’ll need Merino. While Nappa leather is standard on most luxury BMWs, it’s the Merino leather that’s optional on them. Even the 7 Series makes you pay more for Merino leather because it’s the best that BMW offers. Some higher-end M models come with it and most Individual leather options are made from the stuff as well. It’s the finest quality cowhide BMW offers and it’s not dyed with any artificial colors or coatings. So it’s the richest and most premium leather among the bunch. But it’s also the most expensive and will require care and maintenance to keep its quality and look."

Congrats! I never thought I would like the gold wheels on HS, but damn if they don't look really good and unique. Glad she is home finally and enjoy!

Jimjamz · 02-13-2021, 02:18 AM

Congratulations. You are going to love it. The patience will make it all worthwhile.

Today I was driving in town and a little girl about 5yo walked onto a crossing I was stopped at. She turned to her side as she walked by, looked at the car, gave a wide smile and a slow thumbs up before continuing on. Her mother walking behind her looked pretty embarrassed. I had a big grin on my face.

I hope you get many moments of joy driving your beauty.

Thanks JumJamz

They are the coolest moments. I remember doing exactly the same thing.

Still do

RednekM2 · 02-13-2021, 04:33 AM

Yesss! Congrats! Looks killer!

AUSf22 · 02-13-2021, 05:52 AM

Beautiful!

I just ordered black 763s and now I'm kind of wishing I had ordered the gold ones (HS car also)

cncmastr · 02-13-2021, 06:05 AM

Congrats! Car looks great mate!

I had a similar but different acknowledgment experience, a young black youth realized I had a CS and was so excited that all he kept saying to his friends was "that's a CS!" Then he looked at me and gave me that look of acceptance and awe, I returned it with a big smile and a thumbs up.

ptgltw · 02-13-2021, 07:39 AM

I feel like BMW is capturing the younger market better than Porsche or Mercedes or Audi. Maybe not quit as good as VW but they are a step up in price also.

Love that 3rd pick, quarter-front at night. The HS looks stunning in that light, and kills it with the gold wheels. Hearty congrats!!

He is so excited, and rightfully so, he can't type Jimjamz' name

I'm with you young fellow, you've snatched a beauty and had it delivered to you in truly Regal style

Well done my good Sir
