///M School NC, is it worth it?
My wife bought us passes to the M school in NC http://www.bmwusa.com/performancecenter
I wanted to go all the way until I found out I can't use my X6-M and you only drive the m3, m5, m6. I wanted to take the school to really learn what my monstrous SUV could do but now that I have been looking into it it seem like it is more a "driving experience" so you can beat on bmw m cars for 2 days. Since I own one it seems very overpriced. Is there another school that just teaches you how to drive your car like James Bond? Plus I'm a big guy the reason why I bought the big fast suv is so I could fit into a fast ride. It just seems, since I have BMW ///M the coarse isn't for me it is catered towards people who really want to drive a ///M. Plus from reviews I see you spend the first day in a m3 and that has way worse specs then my personal ride and is the size of a kia. Please let me know any input, I am really on the fence and want to know if I should cancel or not. Oh and it's $7k and thats a cruise or a Rolex. |

Ugh...
The best way would have been to have picked up your truck there - assuming of course you bought it new. Cause then they DO put you in an X6M! (Which really kind of sucks if you are picking up a 50 or 35 cause you get in your car and say "chit, I thought this thing was faster" ) I do know that if you are a member of the BMW CCA, you can get a discount (and if you bought your car new and were a member you would have received a $1K check from BMW). I also know they put these classes on sale. The last thing I'm well aware of is that I've never met a single person who did not think it was worth every damn penny. It is an AMAZING experience (I just did the 1 day M school that came with my M5 as well as the delivery experience with my X6) - but even then, I would have no hesitation going back. The biggest challenge is that once you have finished the M school is that you are going to want to go to the VIR school which I hear is even better and possibly more expensive. Do it.
