fyi for those doing Performance Center Delivery...

It's waaay cheaper to fly into Charlotte & get a rental car to Spartansburg than it is to fly directly to Spartensburg. I'm travelling from BWI, so for my wife & I tickets are $120 vs $800

Also recommend renting a car 1-way (from our area), if you have the time. Thanks for the info share

Dude, this is right on time. I spent a good portion of my morning trying to find the cheapest flight to Greenville and the only thing I can find from BWI is like $400!!!

How far is Charlotte from Spartensburg?

when taking performance center delivery, if you come from california, do they ship your car back to cali when you're done? or do they make you drive all the way back to the west coast?

About an hour - it's a straight shot down the interstate. You can get a 1-way car rental from the Charlotte airport to the Spartensburg airport and have BMW pick you up there as if that's where you flew in.

Philasan,

BMW will ship it to your dealer for an additional charge.

Thanks for the tip. I'll check it out, as well as options from National and Dulles. I'm scheduled for an October 17 performance center delivery. I understand that there's no factory tour, because of new model production preparations. Maybe we'll get some extra track time instead.

Have fun.

Thanks for the info. This must just be a bad time to fly because when I flew last year at the same time to take PCD, I only paid $70 a ticket.
