I'm with this guy.

To each his/her own. *flame suit on*

With that out of my system, congrats to the owner who probably doesn't give a shit about what I think. I'll also take this opportunity to remind everyone this is a public, anonymous internet forum. FFS, if we can't express our honest opinions, good or bad, what the hell good is it?
Hi There
You are absolutely right for your own comments and opinions and totally fine with me. Just like I don't like certain color combinations, what I have selected is not something everyone likes. That is normal as with any choices we make. Secondly, I do not run my life based on what other people may think or may approve of. So thanks for tour comments and no need to explain.

Finally, everything on your second paragraph is spot on. To reiterate, I sure do not give a rat's ass about your or anyone's dislike or negative comments as I said I did not pick this color combo to please the 99th percentile of bimmerpost. So have a great day, and enjoy your car in good health!!

classless comment... the irony
Is it forbidden to express an opinion ? Would you wear a blue shirt with a red tie and a black pocket handkerchief ?
I would not, but not everyone has italian class.
Not at all. You go right ahead. Have a great day.

I have the similar color combination in my M6 (blue/red) and I can say that's wonderful.

The blue exterior color is really stand out on the street. BMW makes the best blue paint colors in the whole industry IMO. And the red merino leather brings a great feeling, especially for a luxury GT like the 6/8.

Congrats OP for your great 8!

Thx and I bet the combo looks awesome on M6. Can you post a pic? I'm curious to see the shade of blue. I do agree that the BMW blues are stunning.

If you need deal, let me know as my SA is the best and I have done enough deals there.
Great price and beautiful car sir !!

Did you get a vessel assignment? I'm going to check in to get a status update on my car. They should be on the same boat
Yes finally. There was some issues with the export document that bmw provided donor took longer for assignment. I'm on Apr 4 dep on KLine's Horizon Highway arr Brunswick GA on 20th. Hope I get it by end of Apr.
Confirmed - were on the same ship!

My final destination is the performance center in Spartanburg.

The advertised standard lead time is 10 weeks from drop off.

Looks like we're far ahead of that timeframe.

Will be interesting what delivery date I get

6-8 weeks for me, but yes it is hopefully ahead of the lower end if I get it delivered by end of April. For PCD it is likely another 2 weeks.

Thx a lot. Appreciate it. Full merino is nice but I question its worth for the extra $2k.
