It will see track time, that's a certainty. It'll do the street course in Loudon, NH. That's the nearest course to really let it shine through. I'll also probably go pick it up at the factory. I did that with my current daily driver.
you picked up a 650i at the factory? That has got to be a good story.
It's not.
It might seem like it should be - but it's not.
See, I was forced to keep it to 150 km/h for the first 1500 km. You have to do that to let the engine break in.
It was not nearly as exciting as it should have been, and it's not nearly as cool a story as it could be. I finished up my 1500 miles, watched 'em load it on a ship, flew back, and like two weeks later it was delivered on a truck from the dealer in NH. It was remarkably underwhelming.
Really? I always imagined it would be a real adventure to do that, buy a BMW brand new go to germany and pick it up drive the Nuremberg ring. I guess if you can't really open it up that would make sense but I guess the dream is better than reality.
