2020 M240i Ordered!

Thanks for all your help here answering my millions of questions. I’ll be taking delivery at the performance center in Greenville in late August. Would love to hear from anyone that got their cars clear bra’d in Greenville before the drive home. I’ll be taking delivery on a Thursday and will have the weekend to meander home to Jacksonville Beach. Anyone know any fun routes that way?

Alpine White

Black Sensatec

Navigation (couldn’t justify heated seats in FL, so figured I’d get wireless charging instead)

Wireless Charging

6 Speed Manual

And quite a few m performance port installed options. There was a couple hiccups during the ordering process, they couldn’t seem to get the m sport exhaust and diffuser configured with the manual transmission, so then they also couldn’t add the carbon exhaust tips. They made a note on the order so fingers crossed it shows up correct!

Congrats on the car. Sound like a nice configuration.

It will be stonking hot, as you probably know already.

Consider hitting Charleston, Beaufort, Savannah and Okefenokee on your way back.

That looks like a pretty awesome drive home!

The other route I was considering was Nantahala National Forest to Atlanta, the roads look pretty great (mountainous) through there, which would be a change of scenery for us from the flatness of Florida, but that would be a much longer journey home.

I get the whole Florida is a different animal but I love heated seats, loosens up my back. Even if it's 100 out the a/c is on full blast and the seat heaters are on. lol

Finally on the boat, should be in the US by next Thursday! Got the vessel name from my dealer and am using this site to watch my car slowly make its way home.

Congrats on your new baby! Ordering BMW's is certainly fun especially picking up where the ship is cruising closer and closer to us. Hoping all the goodies you ordered are port installed and there are no hiccups. Again, congrats, enjoy and don't forget to tell all my florida cracker relatives I said hello. Heading down soon...

Arrived in Baltimore at 3AM this morning, unfortunately the only webcam I can find is Inner Harbor, my ship is parked at Chesapeake Terminal.

My car is now stateside, but the status keeps switching between "in transit" and "at the port", at least 4 times now..and my MPE has disappeared from my selected options. Let's see what options show up when I pick up my car from PCD. 3 weeks now!

Nice!!!

Hopefully your road trip home knocked out most of the painful break in miles and you're ready to unleash the beast!

Enjoy

What a great looking car, I really like your spec!

Did you test drive an M2 before you went for the M240? Just curious, not criticizing!

I test drove a used dinan stage 2 M2 before ordering. It would have been about the same price but I wanted more warranty since this is my first BMW and this also seemed a more daily-able.
