New M8 owner

anupcs · 02-28-2024, 07:41 AM

First-time BMW owner here. I bought a 2024 Tanzanite Blue M8 Convertible a couple of weeks ago. Loving it even though I have only driven it around 50 miles so far due to the heavy rain we have experienced in the SF Bay Area recently (I didn't want it to get wet so soon). I am looking forward to participating in this forum. I bought a custom sunvisor from Covercraft but any recommendations on (outdoor) car covers?

Thank you both. I had a fabulous experience with the purchase. I tend to keep my cars for years and so, I purchased this instead of leasing. But, I do hope to take it there for service.

Gorgeous machine!! Congrats and enjoy the Hell out of it!!! I sure do with mine!

Wow. Nice color, and welcome. Aside from Tenac and Vic55 most people are pretty nice here.

But you were wise to post a pic so quickly. 'Cuz I was about ready to chime in, too.

To be accurate, the car parked itself in that spot as the BMW Genius was just done showing me the automated parking feature. He had the car park there as they wanted a pic with the dealership sign 😎

And lets be clear--- I suck at parking while you were within the lines.

I have the CoverCraft car cover, the WeatherShield HD version.
It is the best cover on the market.
