Car looks great! Congrats. I think I saw both Matt and Paul (instructors) in your photos - I had them for the 2 day car control school and they were excellent.

For anyone wondering if the Performance Center is worth it, it really is. The delivery option is really special and the driving schools are worth every penny. Highly recommended experience. I've been twice!

Awesome car, I would love a new 235i with a stick.

Interesting to see so many 335i sedans in the fleet. Are any of those cars sticks?

Pretty much every car on the track for people to drive is auto. Even if you ordered stick. Only car that I saw that was manual of the people delivering that we drove on track was the M5.

Also the 335 and 235 is what they use for the driving school up there so that's why they have so many.

I did the 2 day driving school as well a few years ago and it was great to come back for this. Now we need to go back for the M school! And yeah Paul and Matt were great!

I was just thinking about the great time I had last year in March when I picked up my M3 from PCD.

It almost makes me want to order a new BMW just to go through that experience again. I flew in from NYC and drove the car back to NYC with my buddy. I wasn't worried about rock chips, nor did I get any on the way back. The only thing I was worried about was driving through an ice storm on summer tires.

Congrats on the M235. I love the car and love the combo. I'm strongly considering getting one and doing PCD again. The best combo would be European delivery and PCD.

Oh and I think my dealer wanted around $500-$600 to ship the car from S. Carolina to my dealer in NY. It was an option but I preferred driving it back.

Wasn't available yet when I ordered haha. But after I get my springs and spacers installed in a few weeks that's next on the list!

Great to compare your experience with my own. Your M235i was presented to you in the same room as mine was just a week ago. Looks awesome in black. Enjoy her! I sure am.
