Congrats! I assume that wasn't while you were still inside the building?

The M3 wasn't there, replaced by a GT-something. I'll take a pic tomorrow when I go back.

I got up to 120 outside of Munich, and no, not in the building

Its a 328i. Looking for long term reliability. I'll take and post more pics tomorrow and this week - going to Switzerland tomorrow, then France, then back to Berlin via the Nurburgring. No iDrive, 3rd pedal - exactly what I wanted. Space Gray/Chestnut.

If you're thinking of doing ED, DO IT. I can't believe the experience. They feed you, they give you the first class treatment, and you can break the car in right. BMW got something really right with this program, and I will probably never buy a german built BMW stateside again.

Way to pick-up new BMW.

The chrome M3 was to the right of red M3 coupe in the pic below, behind the guy in white shirt.

Too bad about the weather. Oktoberfest was PERFECT!

If you get a chance, head towards Stuttgart on the A8. It was widened and has some great high speed sections. I think winding out a new engine is the right way to break it in...only an opinion.

Also, you have to eat at Rusticana. Best Spare Ribs in the world. Near the Ostbahnhof, Grillparzerstraße 5, 81675 München, Germany

mD, its vacations. I had midterms last week.

LM - its gone. I'm attaching whats left. They have a big thing on the new 1, and a motorcycle that runs up and down the stairs.

Viper - I'll keep that in mind. I'm in Innsbruck right now visiting friends and hiking. We're going to Salzburg and then Nürburg, so I'll have to see if I can put that on the route. I have to go back to Munich anyway for something. The next time anyone is there, the Australian bar behind Frauenkirche has NFL on a big screen and a lot of ice.

Met a lot of cool people in Munich, and am looking forward to hopefully going back soon.

I'll post more pics later - Gotta crash for the night.
