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

Just curious what others are doing first thing after picking up their new car. 😁

Nice! Maybe I should have worded it: what’s the first thing you did on your first actual drive haha

Well I'm planned for PCD.
So will be bringing some of that ppf tape to protect the front for the drive from Spartanburg SC to Nashville.

Once home paint correction, ceramic coating and tint.

Then first mod would be wiring in my radar detector and adding a phone mount.

Add some radiator and oil cooler protection.

Then not sure. Maybe a few cosmetics, grill, diffuser, spoiler.
Or wait until break in service then an intake, midpipe and swap brake pads for ones with less dust.

After that a few mods for the manual transmission.

My first drive was from the dealer's lot to a nearby gas station. Salesman was with me and he paid for a full tank of gas.

Oh, the stretch of road from the dealer's drive to the main road was one of the worst roads I have ever been on. Access roads to abandoned strips mines are better.

But my first drive was from the dealer to a several miles distant hotel restaurant to have a bite to eat.

After the meal I drove the car 200 miles home.
