European Delivery Pictures
I thought I would share these pictures with you. They are just beautiful and the car as well, a 335i coupe.
More pics on my blog: http://edbmw.com/blog/2007/06/28/eur...hite/#more-126

it is basically free because of the discounts that you're getting on the car. You're getting 7% of the MSRP price and then you negotiate from the European Delivery price up. Look on my website and blog and you will find some good pages that explains everything in detail.

or if you have more questions, feel free to ask here and I will respond to them

you're welcome. I'm trying to build a large gallery with photos and a large database on my blog with stories. It's great to see how much fun you could have doing ED. No wonder Wall Street Journal wrote an article on it

look in my photo gallery, you can see more photos: www.edbmw.com/photos

I should post more pics and stories from European Delivery but I'm always afraid not to look like I'm spamming the forum or something. I have good articles on my blog and website but I always avoided to post them so I don't break any forum rules

my problem with Euro delivery is the car is brand spanking new and you're gonna be redlining it on the bahn every chance you get (at least I would be) so wouldn't that ruin the break in period for the car?

My dad's been taking Euro Delivery for his last 4 or 5 cars. And he's taken me on the last two.

Trip one was in '03 with a 545i. Took it to Dresden, and all around what used to be East Germany. Striking difference between East and West.

Trip two was just last year with his M5. Went to Switzerland and drove it over all the major passes, then down to Lake Como in Italy and back. The pic in my sig is actually of the road into Switzerland. Just inside the trees was an old machine gun nest. Really cool.

Yes, that's why you don't do it (or take a long enough trip to break the car in).

when I asked our engineers about the break-in period, they said not to worry, drive however you like it

Thats the E92 I want, but I would prefer the auto/step/paddles instead of the 6speed. Looks like you had fun.
