I didn't want to do Euro delivery. We've done it before, on our Volvo. But I don't like the idea of waiting 5-6 months for the car to be built, then drive it over there, and wait another two months for it to come back home. I'm a little concerned because I've heard some stories of 335i engines "blowing up" and having overheating issues, but those seem to be early-production issues. Anyway, I'm very excited! I'll post pics when it comes in.
I was originally going to order Barbera Red, the dark red that is available on the 6- and 7- series. That goes into production in March, and my salesman told me he'd have trouble ordering it. I love the Montego anyway. I liked the light beige in the coupe. It's different than that in the sedan. I didn't like the Saddle.. too orange, too much contrast with the rest of the interior, which is black.
I'll try and post some pics later on tonight from E90post of a similar combo.
