The only team that received the "gift" was Illinois receiving an at-large.

Asked. The local BMW club is pretty involved with the dealership so we know most of the people there who are glad to help out.

Who's your MA at Baron? I picked mine up late October. Originally Gabe was my MA, but then Liz took over when he hit the road. Nice combo. I also agree that red calipers would look good.

1 day, 3 hours, 33 minutes to go!!! Just got the update that the stripes are complete and they have put it on the showroom floor to keep it out of the snow (and to show it off). They also gave me a free set of white mirror caps to have painted chili red by the trusted body shop down the street. Those will be done before delivery.

Nice.

I have to say that I admire those of you who ordered your cars... there is NO way I could wait several weeks without some serious sedation. I would be climbing the walls and salivating the whole time.

Hang in there!

Going to the Orange Bowl? I would have gone to the Fiesta bowl due to proximity but Miami is just too far...
