My next BMW will be Euro delivery regardless, a great excuse to go visit Muenchen.

significant discount (7%). Of course costs for the trip also need to be considered....

Wow the building looks so nice! Did you get the chance to drive around the city?

Chriz3586 · 01-26-2009, 12:00 PM

congrats to your car!

E89.35i · 01-26-2009, 12:38 PM

E89.35i · 01-26-2009, 12:44 PM

it will be a great experience if u go there between May and October for at least 2weeks. drive round south of Germeny, south of France. Switzerland, and Austria.

Excellent pictures !

your new coupe is awesome too !

ChaneRZ · 01-26-2009, 01:58 PM

sweet pics!

mkPOTO · 01-26-2009, 02:02 PM

great pictures! looks like fun.. so can you also pay bmw to ship your car for you? and is it still 895?

BMW1986 · 01-26-2009, 02:34 PM

They didn't give you a full tank of gas? Interesting...

Hachi · 01-26-2009, 02:48 PM

I know I can get this info from BMW but thought I get this insight from a customer. Can you negotiate a price then get a 7% discount or is it straight off MSRP? Also did you have to wait 6 to 8 weeks before going or can you schedule a more immediate pick-up date? Thanks.

cipher5 · 01-26-2009, 03:33 PM

Ahh the Welt, how I miss it so. It was nice to go there the 3rd week it was open. I felt like one of the first to get my car delivered there!

jrsbeamer335 · 01-26-2009, 04:44 PM

i can only imagine the amazing experience you had out there!
