Hi,

As some may already know I placed an order a 2023 M240i in the end of August, near the 25th. I just got a text this morning from my SA that my car has landed at the dealership. I'm suppose to take delivery on Monday the 31st. In 2 months I went from order placed to delivered. I've attached some photos my SA sent me.

Congrats! I still can't believe you'll take ownership in just over 2 months in today's market.

The BG exterior with red interior looks great!

Do you have any plans for modifications or are you keeping it stock?

During warranty I plan to keep the car stock as I don't want to void it. I may do some cosmetic interior/exterior upgrades. For example, the new carbon spoiler design from the G87 M2. After warranty I may do a JB4 tune, intake, and exhaust.

First, congrats on such a speedy delivery...and what a beauty! I really like the red interior.

I really wanted the red interior; however, TN was the main reason I began this journey, and I could not pull the trigger on TN with red interior.

I feel that, I really liked TN but I liked red interior more and I also couldn't do TN and red interior. In my opinion the exterior colours that look good with red interior were BG, BSM, and White and I went with BG bc I think BSM and White is basic.

Main thing is to find a dealer with a valid open allocation that YOU can snag. Too often folks place a order without verifying a valid open allocation. Thus it can be 2-3 months before they even get an allocation assigned.

Agreed look for dealer that has the allocation. If you don’t it will be a bit of a wait to even get the process started. 6 months to get a car seems ridiculous but that’s what’s going on.

Grey over red is such a timeless combo - and quite a bonus you got it so quickly!

Congrats buddy, I have the same color combo and get compliments all the time. Gray on red is solid, I had the combo on my S2000 years ago.

Thank you, I can't wait for tomorrow, it's going to be a great day! I already know when I see it I'm person I'm going to fall in love. Also, that would be so clean on an S2000.

I took delivery on 9/21 and still look forward to every drive. It is 100% worth the wait.

I still regret selling this car. It was a MY00 bought in 2004 with 18k miles for $22k. Now, they are selling for double and are double the age/miles. Not as nice as BG IMO, but it was a nice gray.

For sure man, that's super clean.
