A lot of the Pirelli-on-BMW issues are really due to the sidewall blowouts on run-flat tyres over the years. The Pirelli P-Zero range is not a single tyre, really just a sub-brand that has run for decades with dozens of different tyres with that name with lots of different performance capabilities.

The most recent back-to-back Tirerack test of the P-Zero PZ4 vs MPS4S had the P-Zero ahead overall with the MPS4S having a very slight edge in the dry and the P-Zero a slight edge in the wet: https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tests...y.jsp?ttid=269.

I've run Michelin and Pirelli tyres over the years more than any other tyres on my cars, both have had good and bad tyres for various reasons.

Local dealer received an M2. Pirelli on it. It was actually available for purchase. Red, 6MT, HEA. They had tons of bogus add ons (protections, doc fees and the like).

Eww.. The only hope I have is that my HEA was built week 9, so quite a bit after the first couple batches. Worst case will use Pirelli's as a drift/track tire and then buy new PS4S for my forged wheels coming in. I feel for anyone who gets shafted on tires though, just another expense.

I'm told I can get this Saturday.... I'm not holding my breath!

BIG BERTHA HAS LANDED!! SA is confirming if I can pickup tomorrow, but it's likely going to get held until April 8th. Praying it doesn't have Pirellis and that my dealer doesn't drill front bumper holes

I guess that answers the question about them all coming with Pirelli’s.This gives some hope to everyone with an incoming M2 who wants the Michelin PS4S.

So all HEA cars come with the base seats right? Tried some carbon seats for the first time last week. Just a few moments in them. Still on the fence. They are so gloriously beautiful but just a little hardcore.

If your not into track days and plan to drive it pretty often and do daily stuff I wouldn't bother with the carbon buckets. If you absolutely want the look there are some nice carbon rear covers to install on the normal seats.

Since I do around 10 track days per summer I am ready to live with the buckets but If I did only 1 or 2 events I would go with the regular seats.

Attached is the product bulletin. Last page has HEA package details.
Premium+drivers pack+ Carbon roof+ more are standard in the package.
Either 8800 for auto or 8100 for stick.

The only options you can really add are paint, and active cruise ( I could be missing some)

Without including Frieght+ excess wear and dealer options.
Your spec should be 87395. The way they have it configured is 89645

So I got my final quote from the dealership and they’ve priced each option individually. They are saying that’s the way BMW Canada updated their invoice. I showed them the product bulletin to no avail. I checked with another dealership and even they’re pricing the options separately. If your invoice actually states HEA pack with it’s price and not all the options separately, please do let me know. I’m going to talk to the manager later today regarding this.

Thanks for that info, funnily enough I have the Macan in for service at the Porsche Centre near there today, so I will drop by after picking it up, saves me a journey from the far NW.

Nice! Please feel free report back on your first hand experience. Hopefully, Edmonton BMW will have theirs soon so that I can pop in next week.
