I fully agree! That's a nice looking car!

I'm LOVING the CR interior so far. I don't know if my MY2008 335 had the same interior lighting, but at night, it's awesome... the car is dark, you can barely tell it's red, except for these curtains of light that come down on the doors... dramatic

The only bad thing so far is that I spent forever setting my radio stations, and when I went back to the car after dinner, all of my presets were lost!

I bet you used a different remote than the one you used when you initially programmed them. I did that with my 2008 335!

Did you have coral red last time? Did you use anything to preserve the quality? My last car would transfer the dye from my jeans onto the leather so it would appear discolored. I want to prevent that this time around.

Nope. Same remote -- gave the other to the wife... I'm certain I was using mine because her's has this big sticker on it that I was too lazy to remove. I did a search and a few other people have reported this... hopefully it'll all still be okay when I get in again tomorrow morning.

No, I had black leatherette -- which obviously held up great... just didn't breathe on a warm day though. I'm guessing that regular cleaning/conditioning is all that can be done.

My CA told me on 2/24 that the boat has docked and was ready to unload the car. I got an update today because of weather issues the car has not be unloaded and it won't be until probably late next week and I would take delivery at the end of the month. Does anyone know if there are still boats at the port, and if they are having an issue unloading some cars?

Car went into production on 1/17. Am I the only one still waiting? =x

You were on the Triton Leader? The Triton arrived on 03/08 and a few of us took delivery on 03/11. The others took delivery on Tues and yesterday. That's really odd that it would take them that long for you to take delivery of the car. They only thing I could think of is yours is a european delivery car? If so, those usually take priority last, after priority one sold cars, dealer cars and then ED cars.

Up next is tints (probably 30%), and glossy black vinyl roof. Looks pretty the way it is though.

Thanks to everyone in this thread!

Congrats Eek, that's a good looking car you got there

Was not an ED. I'm starting to think I didn't make any of the ships though the CA lied to me and told me I did. When I ask for the name of the ship he avoids the question=p I'm starting to believe it is on the Don Quiojote.

Ask him to send you a print out... If that is the case I wish and hope that yours is on the Don Quiote rather than it have been damaged and at the VPC for repairs.

CKSV got his car and we haven't heard from him! ha! Let's see some photos! =)

[cksv]

In Vegas. I will get her cleaned up and take some photos next weekend.

I saw a new white M3 on the way out. Had plates from Steve Thomas on it. I wonder if it's anyone from the forums.

[o98eclipse]

Cool have fun! I'm just giving you a hard time!

[o98eclipse]

I thought I would revive this thread and share the mods I've done with my car. I'm pretty much done, it's very simple.

See here: Enjoy!
