It will get here around my birthday though...so it couldn't have happened any better!
Happy Birthday kid

BTW...there're some high ground around Port Hueneme. You can camp out there and with a good set of binos, make sure they offload your car properly. Pretty sure it'll be the only frozen black F13 on the ship!
Hahaha the big 27! I'll probably be doing the same thing I've done since I turned 18....working

LOL man- I would only do that if I DID go insane. Not going to fake it- the lease take over process was nothing like this. I got an immediate answer- and just figured out transportation.

This is a whole different animal. It hurts, but it hurts so good! I can't even imagine the excitement once I start seeing the updates online. But I'll try to enjoy it

Mr. S and I were wondering that as well, earlier this year. He decided to get the '16, since it was fast enough. If he can walk a GTR, it'll be easy to ditch the narcos.

As for the delay, if BMW knows, they're holding it close. An educated guess why it wasn't carried over from '15 would be improvements to suspension, the motor, or steering.

It should be available to order in July. I wanted CP, but am not willing to wait until the end of this year.

Good idea!

I'd vote ADV1. Twitch's wheels are the nicest on the board, IMO.

Something I'm considering too! I heard HR's can be harsh, but the K&W's ride a bit better.

Thank you for your input. CP is nice to have, but personally I can do without it since I do not track....

Yeah- i feel like the blacked out look would look cool, but A. The car will attract enough attention as it is and I Don't know about LA, but LB/signal hill/redondo beach cops are fix it ticket trigger happy And B. I kinda want the white leather and MT to be seen from the outside walking by (I read an article that most car thefts that involved a MT the car was simply left there. This way it saves them the trouble of finding out chances are they cant drive the car )
