Superb, they pick you up from the airport, drive you to your hotel which is paid for by BMW, cover dinner for you and guest, pick you up next day for a tour of the factory, half day out racing and off roading, and then they spend an hour going over your new ride.

And it’s FREE.

We did the performance center experience when I got my BMW 6 series years ago. It was a lot of fun, especially putting THEIR cars on the track and flogging them. Skid pad, evasive/quick reaction stuff, high speed laps. My wife beat all the guys there that day, but she had a tough go on the skid pad. Windy so half the pad was rather dry.

But it was a great experience and we enjoyed driving BMW's other offerings at that time (M3, M5, M6, Z4M, 760Li with the V12, and the X5).

This is the answer…happens every generation. Not new news.

Nope - was supposed to start October 23rd. They made a couple this week just to meet their bullshit claim of delivery in 2023 (Rick Hendricks gets his &#128580. The earliest TPW I have seen is February. I’m #21 with MM and expect delivery early April.

An Irish man a bottle of whisky and a BMW, what could go wrong?

Technically yes, but I have a couple of secondhand BMW lease returns, and I got an invite for this. I go to their free autocross every year, so evidently that got me on the radar.

I will admit they tend to suck arse at driving. If you have the little ‘M’ model on your tail and, fanbois get all on your ass to race. Happened today at a traffic light, was hoping the putz would lose control.
