M2 launch Australia

Anyone else been invited to this? Should be epic and today I received a letter saying we're not allowed to take photos or videos and mobile phones/cameras will not be allowed near the track.

Damn it..

Booked out guys. IIRC each dealer was allocated places in December- so unless you're in the press junket- good luck.

I think a few dealers have organised an alternative later in the month?

I've been sent a letter saying we can't have phones/cameras! I don't get it seeing as the car has been officially released. I'll see if I can get a few sneaky shots in..

So how are you guys going on the drive day? can't wait to hear your thoughts.

What's your opinion on the LBB in person? my production date has been brought forward so need to lock in a colour sooner rather than later...

Check the thread I just made.

LBB looks pretty nice in real life! I think you will definitely like it.

Don't go Mineral Grey, but that's my personal opinion. Doesn't do the car much justice compared to the black or blue.

Mineral Grey was my other choice, LBB it is then.

Don't suppose you were able to sneak any pics?
