Damn nice sounding car. Good luck with this one. I love that color. Definitely post some pics.

If you have to wait that long you should have done euro delivery and saved even more...... either way...... will be a nice ride..... I drove one just like you ordered a few weeks ago............. incredible power......... just not a fan of turbos yet (long term life worries me)...... My brother had an Audi A6 2.7 twin turbo..... turbo went south at 52K and he had the CPO warranty......... they claimed he ran low grade fuel which caused it to go out and wouldn't cover it.....BS.... they wanted 4K to replace it.

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.

There is a +/-5 month wait on the 335i coupe anyway. Apparently BMW way underestimated the demand for the new coupe, because the E46 coupe sold one unit for every 9 sedans sold. And the demand for the larger engine is slowing things down, too, because they only have so many and they're also putting them in the sedans.. Mine is taking a little longer because my mom wanted it to come just as I finish finals, just as I'm graduating.

not true. That's horseshit. It's a 9 week wait for order not 5 months for coupes. You're either at a dealer with no allocation or they are lying to you.

This is just what I heard from E90post. My dealer didn't say anything about it though.
