The most impressive car I ever owned. It is Aston + Bentley + technology and build quality all in one car.
It is simply stunning. I almost feel gratitude towards BMW to offer something like this for the 'common' man who worked hard in life.
Hope you get what I mean, always loved the uber expensive coupe's and this car feels to me as special for 1/3 of the price.

How is it compared to the 911?

BranoMW - congratulations! I am loving my 850 too! While I did not get offered a First Edition, it would have been very hard to say no to.

Just the sight of Tanzanite blue (which is rare within itself) is making me count the days even harder as my 2020 M850i in the same color was built on the 24th and now awaiting the trans Atlantic shipping. My SA says it should land at the dealership in early December.

Keep me posted. curious how long it will take you. My experience has been about 6 weeks from end of production to delivery. mine will be in production for 3 weeks.

My M8c went into production on 9/29, status went to "exit from port"on Oct 17th. Dealer said I will have it in 10 days or so.

Wow you got an early build I had week 40. Also seems about 2.5 weeks to build so that is pretty accurate from my dealer saying 3 weeks. Then about 3-4 till arrival. Looking forward to a lot of pictures.

Exciting! Mine completed assembly on Friday. Not in a huge rush since I have to figure out the last two lease payments on my current ride. Upset the dealer has not wanted to work with me on this but not surprised. They have lost their touch with customers.

I am replacing my Alpina and It has two months left on lease. No pull ahead and I dont want another car at the house. So may wait to pick up my M8 unless the dealer works something out. Especially delivery in the middle of winter!

Will keep the thread updated and I'm sure you're going to love your M8C when it lands. Bummer on the last two lease payment negotiations. Hopefully the dealer comes to their senses as customer obsession (key Amazon principle) should be driving any decision they make as there is nothing better in the retail business than customer loyalty.

To that point I have some work ahead of me prior to my M850i landing and that is to negotiate an updated discount vs the initial 4% which I did blindly via passion after the test drive of a 2019 back in August. Through info on this forum I now know that 8% or greater is a more appropriate deal. If they focus on customer obsession it won't be an issue given I'm a repeat customer (bought my wife's 2017 X5 from them) and they stand to benefit from the 8+ years of service for the car.
