Delivery time is killing me!!!!!

xballashakalax · 12-09-2013, 09:04 PM

Hello everyone,

I recently leased my f10 from out of state (Michigan). Dealer reviewed signed papers on November 24. Since then I've been waiting for delivery!!!!!! It's killing me!

Any other experiences of delayed carrier issues?

Just buy some aftermarket parts to pass time.

An expensive but effective way to pass the time. I went to order mine of Saturday figuring a end of March delivery and we found a car identical to what I would order not far away. Looks like I will get her Monday. However, since Saturday afternoon if have bought (or made appoitments for):

*Winter tires
*IND reflectors and side vents
*Exhaustmeister
*License plate frames
*A blue LED dash light (I am a voulnteer firefighter)
*Opticoat treatment and Xpel PPT install
*9500ci install

So I am about 9-10K in extras in 3 days - none of which make my car go faster.

Lol same boat as you:
- 3d front lip and rear diffuser
- h r springs
- lci front grill
- and other minor cosmetics.

On other note:
I'm still learning about all the things available for the f10.

What is the exhaustmeister for?

It's a device with a remote (or can be programmed into a home link button on the rear mirror) which adjusts the exhaust valves, so you have manual control of it.

Closed Valves = Quieter
Open Valves = Louder

Why not some HREs while you guys pass more time?

Those will be ordered in tome to be put on when the winters come off.

M5NI · 12-15-2013, 03:55 PM

I'm also going through the pain of the wait for new M5 to arrive. Ordered a couple of months ago. A little under a month to go until delivery now..... but I'm getting impatient

positiveions · 12-15-2013, 09:19 PM

Umm, get yourself in 2-day //M school in the meantime.

Did you lease or purchase? What type of a deal? Since you are in LA, I'm assuming you got a killer deal.

URBAN LEGEND · 12-16-2013, 06:55 AM

Make all you appointments for tint, lowering, clear bra, and radar. All to pass more time.

Just trying to help here.

URBAN LEGEND · 12-16-2013, 06:56 AM

Make your 1200 mile service appointment as well.

Think about the car day and night and then try to change your options around mid-production. That's always fun. I have two M6s I ordered sitting in a showroom because I did this.

Northern X5M · 12-16-2013, 12:02 PM

Or try ordering Individual options. 5-6 months...
