Decided to skip on the black leather this time, and went with the Mocha Nappa. Just time for something different.

Our plan is to spend ten days in Europe, traveling to, or at least through:
Now that I have a production number, I can track my car on the BMW website. However, the steps don't really fit with European Delivery, so we will see how it develops.The order is truly official now -- I have a Production Number and a confirmed delivery date: July 11, 2015. (This is not the price that I am paying...)
Order officially placed with BMW today. Next step is getting a production number, and a confirmation of my delivery date. I am hoping this will happen early next week. Having a date will allow me to make hotel reservations, and start watching airfare. Ticket prices are quite high right now... I have configured the car I want, taking it easy on the expensive options. The 528i comes with a lot of equipment standard, and the ED savings are highest on the base price, not the options. By configuring this way, the 528i is actually more affordable than my 3 Series.
2015 528i (Space Grey, Mocha Nappa leather, Anthracite wood trim) - M-Sport package (with special order 704 M-Sport suspension) - Driver Assistance Package (rear camera, HUD, PDC) - Sport Transmission - Top and Side View Cameras The 528i M-Sport doesn't normally come with the 704 sport suspension -- only the appearance package. However, the 704 is available on special order, and my CA made it happen by coordinating through BMW-NA and the mothership in Germany! The official start of the process! On February 3, 2015, I placed my order with my CA - John Weltzien at Braman Motorcars in West Palm Beach. Hoping to confirm a delivery date in mid-July. Getting a production number will take a little bit more time than usual because of the "special order" on the M-sport suspension. |
