No problem ordered it mid-Jan and it was a Feb 3rd start build. Build finished on Feb 6th, showed up at Bremerhaven on Feb 7th, shipped around 16th (on Parsifal), and docked at Baltimore on Feb 26th.

Came off the truck last night, and was sitting in a snow drift at the back dealers lot when I looked at it this afternoon. It hasn't been prepped yet but I verified it was built with the correct options. Was fairly dirty as well, so didn't bother with pics. Going to pick it up next week as the Midwest weather seems to be calming down a bit by then ( I originally ordered for an April delivery but it got built early)

I believe I saw your car today if it's at my dealership.
I was contemplating stealing your heated steering wheel but I'll live without it.

Ha, yes and yes. I work upstairs in corporate.
I'm taking yours for a spin - fair is fair. It is a "launch" version which is why I guess - it makes no sense as it's only $50 more. Meh. The steering wheel doesn't get cold like my 335's did.

So I was out looking to check out M235is this past Sunday, happened across golf4501's car and took some pics. It's a bit salty/dirty but nothing terrible. Besides, I figure it gives ya an idea of how the car will look on a day-to-day basis here in lovely Chicagoland.
Here it is head-to-head with my Mk. V GTI. Paint close-up... |

Car is looking good in delivery. Went down to see if you were here to say hi but you aren't here yet.
I drove mine in today - and we have a demo that is also setup in blue with the special steering wheel and carbon bits. It'll be gone by the time you get here though. Enjoy the car!
