Apparently my tracker was way off. Dealer contacted me and said my bmw was at the dealership. With no time at all I Took a flight to Rhode island THAT day and took delivery off my M240i. So excited now a 7 hour drive back to NY begins.

Congrats. Car looks great. Safe trip back.
Not sure why all the hate on the rear end. I think it may be my favorite part of the entire design.

Not my favorite especially compared to the 340, but I think it looks a lot better if you get the m perf spoiler. I think I will add that to mine later on

I think the big thing is drastic design changes always come with resistance. I remember when I first saw the g80 reveal I was absolutely disgusted, but seeing them more and more and seeing them in person made me love the design.

Similarly, this design change to the 2 is pretty drastic and it doesn't scream 'BMW' to many people including me for the time being. As time goes on and everyone sees these more and more, people will settle in.

Congrats, I have the same caliper / wheel combo. I think it looks amazing in person. Enjoy!

Congrats! It looks mean in BSM with the shadowline package, black wheels and red calipers.

I agree, and think it will really look amazing with 4 fat exhaust tips.

ncolombo701 was your tracker stuck in "Ready for Transport" until you took delivery? I see that's the last status you'd mentioned in the order status thread.
