What is the first thing you did with your new M2?

TheSiege · 11-29-2024, 09:52 AM

From the enclosed carrier to home for 1 night where I set up the digital keys and radio. From there I loaded the trunk with the bottom radiator cover and drove to the PPF shop for a full wrap. Once wrapped and with radiator protection installed, my first drives were up the Pacific Coast Highway.... all while exhibiting zen-like, masterful, self-control to keep things <4,000 RPM.
850 miles now... almost there.

24-Sep-2024: Drove the car from the dealership to my home about 6 miles. Then spent the next two weeks taking it for drives around town, showing it to family and friends, learning iDrive 8.5, experimenting with settings, and just sitting in it once it was safely back in my garage.

First things done in order:

03-Oct-2024: Installed a Garmin Dash Cam Mini 3
14-Oct-2024: Brought to detailer

a. prep and minor paint correction
b. XPEL PPF on rocker panels
c. XPEL ceramic coating on full car

27-Nov-2024: Mounted 829M winter wheel/tire set
27-Nov-2024: BMW all weather floor mats

Total miles on car to date: 870

It’s Black Friday! And I bought a few things. Single AA midpipe is coming, wheels spacers (15mm Fronts/18mm rears), valves, and carbon front lip.

My M2 is already lowered on MP HAS kit. So all of this is going to make the car perfect for a bit!

Rubbed one out in it.

Drove from the dealer to the wine country to have lunch with my co-pilot.

As far as mods, mishi plate went in first.
