Back in the day, my professors in my contract law classes used to keep asking me; "Do you work for a bank or something" because I taught them a few new things about their lessons plan.. I had to dumb it down a little, so I didn't arose suspicion 🤨 Humbly and to keep it succinct, I'm just a run-of-the-mill nerd.. Even have four eyes to keep up with the stereotype 🤓 |

First, congrats in advance . . . Second, no need to apologize . . . this thread has become about sharing enthusiasm around taking new ownership. Finally, not sure they are 'finicky points? Rather, relate to what I consider a lot of 'group think' present across all forums and the internet, in general (e.g., YT). People get caught up in what every one else thinks which - often, but not always - comes with some unwarranted pre-conceived notions. There are more than I listed, and you may or may not agree my views on those I listed. Perfectly fine, of course. Looking forward to your reporting back after delivery. ///AVM |

Omg! I'm getting close too, boats still got about 4 weeks at sea before it reaches our shores.
I will be living through you guys whilst I wait, looks like I'll be the last to take delivery out of the original batch of owners discussing VINS and production dates 1-2 months ago

Well yours had the longest journey! I hear mine will reach NYC /NJ port on 8.24.20. Not sure how long it will take to get from port to my dealer? It's only 60 miles, but I'm sure there are hoops to jump through before its loaded on a truck. I dont know how I have put up with the wait! It has been been painful! |

In AU, takes about 2-3 weeks to clear customs after the car docks then a few days for dealer delivery/registration. So chances are I'll have it late Sept, early Oct. Tell me about it, Ordered the car in May and take Delivery in Oct... 5 months total wait for me

I will be sure to post pics when she happens! It always helps me to live vicariously through others whose wait is finally over! As they say, this too shall pass and we will be driving our cars and the wait will be behind us. |

Only my car is on the same boat as AUSf22 and will be lucky if I see it in Sep at all.... pretty long wait for a car that was not a "pre production" order. Not blaming anyone though.

I am only guessing, but I suspect it could be worse . . . I wonder how long it will take for your G87 M2C to get from MEXICO to Australia? September does not seem that far away, given it is August 20th. Here before you know it! We will be waiting! Now, Papi posted his pics, but there were no pics and he deleted post. So, I assume he is working out the technical difficulties and we will treated to his new beast shortly. ///AVM |

So happy! Of all the stupid issues, the door keeps flying out of my hands when I open it.
IND reflector delete, Xpel front and rocker panel, tint 6MT and it took me about 20 miles to get the hang of the manual again! The hard part is NOT to hit 4500rpm during break in... |

Yes Bi Color. Felt black would be too pronounced for me. Had a guys jaw hit the floor when I pulled up next to his GTI. Love fellowgearheads. This weekend I will be painting the muffler, adding the sto n sho and putting in the rear reflector deletes. At which point the my wife had asked me to slow down my purchases (significantly). |

Papi
Are you SURE you want to paint that muffler? I ask for a couple reasons. (1) You did go with silver wheels and the muffler is a silver 'accent.' (2) I was aware, albeit somewhat ambivalent to all the group think regarding the muffler prior to taking ownership. After taking ownership I have to admit I have not only come to accept the muffler, it is actually one of my favorite features. By no means suggesting YOU should or will like it, but wondering if your views might change after some ownership time? ///AVM |

I did it today. Painted the muffler along with a couple other tweaks. I just couldn’t not take the opportunity to do it while I had it on jacks. Other stuff was key hole delete, rear reflector delete (gloss honeycomb), ceramic coated wheels and calipers, and Sto N Sho front plate holder.
