Thx. the clock has been ticking at half pace.........But nice reward for coming home on Mon :-)

b5ka · 09-02-2014, 12:57 PM

Any plan on protecting the paint?

BarryB · 09-02-2014, 01:39 PM

Just reading the new products BMW has for frozen colors. I guess I will go shopping soon.......

b5ka · 09-02-2014, 01:46 PM

I will be most probably using products that BMW suggests here:

You doing the same Barry?

BarryB · 09-02-2014, 02:13 PM

Yup that's the stuff.
Anyone here taken delivery yet. I know Fumf from the "other" Board got his a week or so ago.

PhilT3 · 09-02-2014, 04:38 PM

best of luck Barry! And congrats!

dhirm5 · 09-02-2014, 04:47 PM

Very nice, Barry - congrats! Gorgeous car. Especially like the gold calipers peeking out from behind the spokes.

hsiaochinsan · 09-02-2014, 04:51 PM

Dear lord

DesertEagle50 · 09-02-2014, 05:57 PM

As far as Frozen cleaning supplies go:
Swissvax paint cleansers are very good.
Dr. Beazleys work pretty well but stink like hell. I can't stand to use them.
The Chemical guys Meticulous matte are for vinyl and not for frozen bmw paint. They leave a bad haze. They sold me on it at a car show to try and it was a bust.
I put a coat of Jetseal on mine and works like a boss. Best product I've bought.
I haven't tried the BMW frozen paint cleaning supplies. No need.

Lol ouch, sorry dude.

I always wait for the LCI/ZCP editions at least. I don't pay attention enough to know when "anniversaries" of cars are. But this one sounds very cool. I look forward to seeing one on the road.

I just want a free ecu tune for the extra power. Everyone who bought the comp package should get that courtesy. I could give two shits about matte paint, stitching and logos. Give me performance!

BeachsideF30 · 09-02-2014, 10:23 PM

I don't think a car for 140k with primer on it is the car for me lol

Stronie · 09-02-2014, 10:30 PM

Wonder if you'll drive this one to Columbus? Timmayfest anyone.
