Hey SONET - it's here!!! ))

Wooohooo!!!

 

[scottn2retro]

I'll give SONET a call

He's waiting to hear from Franco.

Is it ready to pick up tomorrow? If so, AM or PM?

 

[SONET]

Woohoo!

It came just in time. Franco pushed it through so I could have it tomorrow too. You guys are awesome!

I hope I can sleep tonight...

Why aren't you on the road already??

I ditched the last hour of work on a Friday to go pick mine up, and made the dealer stay open an extra 30min to finish my paperwork.

Looking forward to seeing it on Sunday!

Congrats, SONET!!

2 weeks to go for my Euro Delivery

I have no way of getting up there other than the bus tonight (no thanks!). I considered walking, but something tells me I will get there sooner if I just get a ride tomorrow. Scottn2retro was kind enough to offer me a ride up to Cutter tomorrow (I had planned to take the train), so I will be going with him.

As for Sunday, I think I'm leaving my car at Scott's in HB because I'm going to drive his wife's car to the event (it will be the tester car). I think the event is going to continue at Scott's place when the clinic is over in Costa Mesa though.

Cruzer: I envy you for doing ED. I hope you take lots of pics there, I'm sure it will be an awesome experience!

You can always rent something and drop it off in Santa Barbara... I'm with you on this one though. The ride to SB in Scottn2retro's M Roadster is MUCH more pleasant...

I guess you have your car by now... Hope everything went well! :thumb: Pics?

 

[RChoudry]

Sonet,

We will need pics! Stat!

After a long and patient wait the day finally arrived...

That beautiful new Titanium Silver Metallic BMW 330Ci of which young SONET would not be deprived...

"Just hand him the keys" was the medicine that DrBimmer prescribed...

Retro Scott gets the MVP award for the day with his grand assist.
SONET was going to have to take the Amtrak up to Santa Barbara, that is until Scott volunteered to chauffer him to our doorstep. Scott - it was great hanging with you today! Thanks for helping out!!

Check out the ride!!!

And now...

The side view...

Re: SONET's delivery pics! ))

This is what I call the classic, now patented "Silly-Ass Grin"...

Only those who have ever had the pleasure of taking delivery of a brand-new BMW know the type of ecstatic-euphoric nirvanha that I am talking about...

))

Congratulations SONET, and Thank You for the opportunity to serve you...

 

[ALEX325i]

Congrats SONET! BEAUTIFUL car! :thumb:

 

[SONET]

Jon you sneaky guy! I thought you said you weren't going to post those.

Delivery couldn't have been better... Franco was awesome and the whole experience was fantastic. I still can't believe that the silver car in my garage is actually mine. Woohoo!

I took the 'long way home' so I'm pretty tired, plus I have to be up early for the OC detailing event in the morning... so I'll post pics and a little write-up tomorrow if I ever make it to my office.

What a great day... thanks again Jon and Franco! :thumb:

Congrats SONET! BEAUTIFUL car! :thumb:

Thanks Alex. I must say I find both of your cars attractive as well.

Congrats, nice color choice. BTW the SAG is permanent, it's an artifact of BMW ownership. :lmao:

 

[johnlew]

Great looking car Sonet, enjoy. Great color combo if I say so myself.

 

[Cruzer]

GOTTA LOVE THAT S-A-G!

There is no doubt that the "Silly-A**-Grin" only happens when your dealer is a professional S-A-G creator. Good job, Jon. Can you guys open a dealership in Houston? :thumb:
