| Aus timings Spoke to dealer today. Car on track for July. No S deliveries at all before this other than demo car in April. (Can't wait!) BMW gave dealer 2 colour options - EB & DS, and chose Electric Blue - dealer very anti-DS, due to bad experience shifting used Aspen Grey BMWs
Coopers arrive mid-Feb, but no deliveries till post Melbourne Grand Prix (end Feb). Test drives OK though
Other good news... Works packages to be sold in Aus (dunno when or how much) - Will wait & see how 163 horses feel first!
Bad news on my preferred wheels... R85 cross-spokes are a scary AUD 6726.50 per set of 4 wheels & runflats (not inc. trade-in on std wheels & tyres). Way out of my league!
Std S wheel in Aus remains 16" 5-spoke, though "normal" X-Lite is no cost option |
