Hardly. What happens when you need to replace the tires. Oh that's right you can't because they were scrapped in 2017.

They should have shipped with MP4S or PSC2 from the factory.

BMW has an endless supply of MPSS to get rid of first

Congrats Pol! I know it's been a long wait for you.

Now to get those ugly pensioner guards off immediately! May as well do it when the car is still on shipping blocks to give easier access

Thanks everyone for those kind attentions!

After having collected the beast from the dealer today, it immediately left for the beauty center. Full XPEL + Gyeon Duraflex Quartz Coating.

That's my plan as well. I'm thinking ppf on the front fascia and then ceramic coat for the body and wheels.

Wheel arch extensions will be taken off by the detailer.

Once you start you don't know where to end. I went for the whole car.

All BMW's ship with spacers in the springs so that they don't bounce around on shipment trucks. Basically locks the springs into higher position, helps to get them off trucks as well. They are pulled out when the car gets inspected off the truck.

This happened to me on the recent delivery of my M2C. The later pictures of this M2CS seem to show a lower "stance"; however, the earlier pictures do have a similar appearance to my M2C. It is very easy to confirm. Simply slide one of the front shock boots upward, and you may visually inspect for the offending block. I know this will sound frustrating if you have never inspected for one of these blocks, but it will be very obvious if the white and blue blocks are still in place. This was related to the M2C. One can imagine the dealer was VERY embarrassed!

To the original poster, your CS is beautiful, in a menacing way! Enjoy the machine!
