Performance Center Dilemma

Brazz · 07-23-2013, 07:05 PM

I would like your opinions. I can pick up my car Aug 6th from the dealer or Aug 30th from the Performance Center. Is the PC worth the wait? Thoughts?

It's entirely a personal preference. I did ED re-delivery at the PC for an M3 two years ago since I was already waiting for it & another couple weeks didn't really matter much and I really wanted to do the PCD program. It was a great experience, and I'm glad I did it.

Since then I've done another 2 day driving school at the PC & it's not so much the "new" experience it was a couple years ago, so I will be taking re-delivery at the dealer later this year for a Sept ED of my wife's 6 series Gran Coupe.

If you've never done it before, I'd say do it.

I don't have first-hand experience but I did see this post in the F10 LCI 2014 sticky thread: http://f10.5post.com/forums/showpost...&postcount=169

Not sure how much you care about the PCD tour portion but the BMW Performance Center Delivery Team email they quoted did say this: "Please be aware, BMW Manufacturing will not offer public tours effective April 29, 2013"
