Finally Found Her

SandmanTR · 09-12-2009, 10:22 PM

Been looking for an Alpine White launch car and a local BMW dealer landed one 6 days ago. Stopped by and spent about 4 hrs grinding on them to hammer out a deal.

MSRP - 95,575.00 (Got it for less than MSRP)

Alpine White w/Bamboo Beige Interior

Options
Cold Weather Package
Driver Assistance Package
Premium Sound
Rear Climate Package
Power Tailgate
Comfort Access
Sirius w/1Yr

I can't even begin to explain the thrill of this thing. A true beast...

...more to follow.

I drove a clone of your car today. Way to Go! I really liked the look of the wood trim and it went very well with the Bamboo Beige interior. The car I drove had 50 miles on it. I took it pretty easy out of respect for the wonderful engine. I figured I can wait to see balls to the wall performance until I get my hands on my own. This is not a car to hand the keys to just anyone in my opinion. The power surge is immediate and it continues in a linear fashion until high speeds are produced.

I really lucked out. This dealership does not allow test drives like some where they just hand over the keys. The car was on the dealerships showroom floor with 6 miles on it and no test drives.

Thanks! I'll post some photos after her bath in the morning. Interior and exterior.

kahunacanuck · 09-13-2009, 02:11 AM

Looks gorgeous! That is what I have on order, just the cinnamon interior instead...way to go! Looks great in that Palm Springs sunshine!

More pics when you can, let us know what you think of the sound of the exhaust. You have to take it on the Palms to Pines!

andruslikx · 09-13-2009, 06:33 AM

Brilliant alpine white! Please give us more photos

WAY · 09-13-2009, 10:08 AM

Please post more pic of the interior too! I haven't seen a pic of the back of the seat. I wonder if the black and bamboo on that part of the car is too much?

Deda · 09-13-2009, 11:35 AM

congrats,more pics please!

SandmanTR · 09-13-2009, 11:40 AM

Ok all.

Just finished her first bath. The interior is amazing, the exhaust note is perfect and the power delivery is jaw dropping.

I can't wait to hit 1200 miles...

...more to follow.

chuck92103 · 09-13-2009, 12:01 PM

That is one classy looking vehicle.

I have a white on black 3.5 . Wanna race?

Zirenz2006 · 09-13-2009, 12:20 PM

727jbh · 09-13-2009, 12:40 PM
