Finally, the ball is rolling!

Hi guys,

Been following everyone's M5 experience for a while and pulled the trigger near the end of March. My build is a 2014 M5, White, Competition Package, Amaro Brown Leather, LED's and 601's.

Finally it is in production and BMW says it will be done around June 2nd. It's been a long wait (probably due to dealer allocation and individual leather order).

Any guess on time to East Coast assuming the car is done first week in June?

Thanks and I've enjoyed sharing everyone's experiences vicariously while I waited patiently for mine to finally get going.

Awesome man! Yeah it was probably the Amaro Brown that delayed production. Individual orders for things that aren't in the mainstream production line usually increase the production time significantly. As for delivery, expect anywhere from 3 to 6 weeks after the production of the car has finished. Your lucky you live on the East Coast. On the West Coast it gets extended to as long as 12 weeks sometimes.

RPiM5, I'm sure your right about the Amaro Brown holding things up but I think it will be worth the wait and compliment the AW exterior.

Sooma, my original thought was either AW or SG with Sakhir Orange which looks fantastic as well.


PhilT3, I'm in central PA, near State College.

The Amaro Brown is so nice. If it wasn't $6500(for full) I would have gone for it.

PhilT3,

I see your wheels and tires for sale in your sig and they look great. It has me thinking about driving in PA from Nov-Apr. Why not keep them for your upcoming M5?

I have another set I want to purchase from a local guy. They are stock 19" M5 wheels with Blizzaks and 245/275 so they SHOULD do better in the inclement weather.

Plus, I would have to use spacers on them to make them fit properly.

So, in order to keep my sanity and my wife from giving me flak, I need to sell these before I buy another set.

Well, my M5 is sitting in Bremerhaven waiting for shipping. The AIDA is leaving today (June 10th) bound for NY. I hope it makes it on that ship, no confirmation yet.

Anybody else waiting for shipping at the moment?
