Welcome to the club! We have the exact same build! (Well almost, I'm in the elite club of Moonroofers. Don't be jealous.)

Honestly at this moment it seems surreal. The fact that I have never even seen the car in person, so it just seems fake to me. I am waiting for someone to pull the rug out from under me. I am sure I will not be able to sleep much the night before and the 1.5 hour drive to the dealer is going to kill me Saturday morning, but once I actually see my car for the first time it will become real. You won't be able to wipe the grin off my face with a chainsaw! lol

Sweet, I will try not to be too jealous. lol This is actually the first car I have bought with the option, but purposely left that block unchecked. Even my pickup truck had a factory moonroof. Maybe it is my Mustang roots, since it was never an option with any of them I naturally went without it on this car?

Did you get lucky enough to be forced (the car was already built) to get the $60 phone charging cable, $45 first aid kit and the $155 Floating Hub Caps (which list for $104 on BMW website???)? Floating hub caps - BMW spinners? LMAO
I feel pretty luck to have these added expenses to my car. lol

I dont remember the last one I had without a moonroof, but I left it out on the M2C. The overall look is much better without it. I love how the roof comes into the relatively small windshield and gives it the sporty coupe shape.

I hope the M2 Comp lives up to the reviews.

I'm in Missouri as well.

The thing I noticed about my M2 compared to all the other cars that I have had, was how much it felt like it was forged out of a solid piece of granite. Such a fantastic feeling (if you've never driven one).

Congrats!

I have driven a few and rode in a lot more, but that was all back in the mid 90's thru early 2000's when I lived in Germany for 8 years. And yes, the feel of German manufactured cars is unreal compared to Japan or the USA. Very solid feel and a good sounding thump when you close the door! I cannot wait to have mine own finally.

Congrats!

I fully understand that and I was fully expecting to be in the same boat, but my dealer did a nationwide search and this was literally the only one in the nation that matched my must haves. I was lucky that BMW had already built the car I was looking for besides the frivolous $540 worth of add on accessories.

And not that it will make anyone feel better, but my wife's XC60 Volvo is on order to be built and not supposed to be delivered until May, so we know what you are going through. ;-)

I'm just busting your chops. I'm happy for you and can't wait to join you in the M2C club. That's awesome that they had your build and here's to waiting

[Sarg33]

:-) I know, just letting you know it isn't all roses on this side either. :-) I get that look from the wife every time I talk about how lucky I was. lol

Totally busting your chops, lol. Honestly the M2C is one of the few cars that looks great with or without a moonroof.

I only spec'd it because I enjoy driving with both windows down, sunroof open, and me yelling like a child when downshifting to 3rd on an open road.

Weirdly, when I ordered my car, they added a bunch of nonsense stuff like the Floating Hub Caps, Phone Cables, etc, but when delivery was close, they took those items (plus the cost) off my tab since I didn't specify it.

[Sarg33]

That is weird, but glad they fixed it for you. Unfortunately for me I did not order the car or I would refuse to pay for such addons. Honestly I am happy with the figures the dealership and I worked out, so I am not complaining at all.

[Sarg33]

Just got an email saying my car has arrived!!! Might have to see about taking tomorrow off work! Asking the dealer to send me a picture.

Do it, go drive some good roads and enjoy the car. Get some of those 1200 break in miles out of the way too. She deserves it!

**Also, you could totally take the wifey out for a nice V-Day dinner in it**

well, duh!!!! Go get it!! and enjoy the extended weekend, because you'll regret not having the extra day to drive it if you dont.

[Sarg33]

I would love to, but after discussion with the wife, we are sticking with the Saturday morning plan. We both have work commitments tomorrow.
And it is a 100 mile drive one way, so going after work would make for a long day. We had planned on doing the V-Day dinner Saturday after getting the car and she can do some shopping in the city while I 'get to know' my new baby.

Monday is a holiday, so 3 day weekend for me and then I have every other Friday off, so 3 day work week and another 3 day weekend. Now if the weather will hold out. Supposed to be in the single digits tomorrow.

[AlpsRider]

I'd ask them to take a pic of the odometer now! There are way too many people itching to drive these cars, both techs and buyers.

Oof. Not that you're TECHNICALLY supposed to be getting into boost in the break-in (do whatever you want really), just be careful with the MPSS or Conti tires in the cold. Specifically the former, anything under 42 is not recommended. If it's high 20s or low 30s, it'll spin 3rd pretty easily.

Salesman already told me in an email that it rolled over to 13 miles when he took it to the wash rack. I can assure you that he is well aware I am very anal about how many miles are on it.
