Awesome news mate, I've been tracking her daily, not too long to go now.

So far I've just ordered the front grilles, side gills and diffuser to come eventually.

There is a BSM in the collection bay at my dealership for some lucky owner to pick up today.

Fitting was quoted as 3 hours at $200+ per hour, seems about right given what needs to be done.
I wouldn't be going overseas to purchase by the time you pay shipping charges its pretty close to the dealer prices TBH.

There is a BSM at the dealership I'm dealing with also, I think the original buyer has fallen through. I asked to take it but they said they are going to sell it off the floor can anyone say market adjustment

Were they asking an inflated price for it then due to it being available for immediate delivery?

Been buying parts for my BMW cars for last 6 years from US and Europe agree at the moment you have to compare prices here and from OS,got price list from BMW dealers in UK who gives 20% discount to forum members.

Will be in London for two weeks if prices beat my dealer prices will bring back parts in the luggage of myself wife and daughter.

A few years back brought back 2 E39 clutch kits and flywheels saved $4000 on local dealer prices.

U.K. Dealer M performance parts prices

Hi fellas - Just got word from my Dealer in Victoria to pick up my M2 on April 29 which happens to be my birthday, Wow what a birthday it will be.

Specs: M2 fully optioned with sunroof AW.

I ordered it at the end of November last year and was built on February 5th.

If you got your VIN# you can track it on the shipping site:

Just saw our only local M2 (test drive only) on the street.

The LBB colour just glows in an overcast city street and the exhaust sounded epic as he pulled away from the lights.

Prodigy, can you or anyone else give me a heads up on local pricing for the Performance Parts (installed). I saw Guiseppe's labour quote but not the parts pricing.

I am considering rear spoiler, diffuser, grill surrounds and the gills (or only some of these depending on pricing)

Sorry mate, my Perf Grilles were just included in the price of the car and i'll install them myself.

I haven't asked about pricing for the other bits as yet so will also be interested to see what Joe & Fab's pricing on the parts are.

IMO the only slightly tricky thing to install would be the rear spoiler as getting the stock one off is a pain, all the other bits would be easy to DIY.

Just had some fun with this.

To those who have ordered - it's rubbish. Cancel your order. Then let me know which dealer to call...

Seriously it was epic. Worth the wait. Still a slight amount of turbo lag from start and suspension a little spongy on a freeway entry ac relation run. Both minor. Exhaust was a lot better than I was expecting too for stock. Looks are killer compared to M235i.

TGDavey WOW April 29th so jealous lots of photos and videos please.


Windmagnet: I got an all up quote on the parts I wanted but I can give you a rough guide on each:
Front Grill left and right $440
Diffuser $1,700
Rear Spoiler $1,000
Side Grill $240

These are approximate and are full whack retail pricing on the parts so you should be able to negotiate in some decent discounts on these.

Prodigy not sure if there was a market adjustment on the BSM car they had, but I would imagine so.

I may be looking to cancel my order if anyone wants to pick mine up. It's an AW white pretty much fully loaded. Build week 22 (end of May), from North Shore Sydney. Delivery scheduled end of July.

Let me know if anyone is interested.

Will do Guise, look at the # 2 in the Decal. It is carbon fibre and when the sun hits it becomes 3 demintional.

The days are going so slow.
