I took PCD on 19 Aug. Information as of that day was that PC did not have and could not get the 1M-specific (orange stiched) mats, regardless of whether the dealer had requested them specifically or not (mine did on numerous occasions ahead of my delivery date; I've seen the emails). Good luck.

To answer my own question. The CA sent the email on Monday and on Thursday they emailed him back. The following information is from the email they sent the CA. He was good enough to forward it to me in its entirety. First, they didn't bother with the dates he requested. They sent him one date which is the 'earliest available'. Email stated that date is guaranteed for three days then passed to someone else if not reserved. Also stated you can request up to 3 other dates up to 10 working days of the original assigned date. I submitted the 4 Fridays after the earliest avail date. 3 of the 4 were not available. Fortunately one was. Technically its 11 working days after the assigned date but I guess they will slide on that. Quote:

Can anybody who has done PCD offer a typical schedule of events for the day?For example, does everybody take "delivery" of their car at the same time? My wife and I will be making the trip with a 9 month old, so I'd like to be able to take delivery with her and do the track stuff with my brother. I'm sure BMW will frown on that or just prohibit it completely, but I'm hoping to give it a shot either anyway...

7:00 - Breakfast on your own and the Marriott 7:40 - Shuttle leaves for PC 8:00 - PCD begins with bag storage and roll call 8:15 - Instructor info and classroom 8:30 - Track Time (ABS exercise, road course/lines, skid pad, hot lap) Around 10:30 the group breaks in half- half do delivery before lunch and half do the factory tour and off road course in the X5. Everyone meets up again around noon for lunch, and then the groups swap. I would think you could easily do the track time with your brother, and delivery with your wife, although I don't think BMW will feed everyone. Ask Bonnie or Donnie first thing to make sure...but they should be able to accommodate a request for delivery after lunch, so that your wife could come at 1300 for the delivery. |

I did my PCD yesterday, and the car was delivered with the orange stitched floor mats. I asked, and they said all cars are delivered at the PCD with mats, and the cost is billed to your dealer. The delivery specialists were not sure if it required a special request from your dealer to get the orange 1M mats, but it sounds like asking your dealer to request them specifically can't hurt.

Yes, although I didn't get the impression that there's quite as much on-track time or instruction as you would get with a new car delivery. The PCD rep described getting to "take out" a few BMWs on the track, but didn't sound like there was skid pad, etc. After M school and PCD, this sounds like the least involved experience in terms of seat time. But definitely still a bargain (especially since you don't have to shell out for Mschool or a new car!)

License plates
I don't remember seeing this before.
What are people doing about plates to get back home? I live in TX, the dealership is in NY but I'm picking up the car in SC. Also, I will be paying taxes in my own state at the DMV not to the dealership. Just wondering what others are doing? |

Here is what the PCD department sent me, it should throw some more light and help folks that haven't done one yet.

I did specifically request them from my dealer at the time of my order.

Car just entered 150 status today and the PCD date they assigned me is in November which seems rather late. Would I get my car sooner by having it delivered to the dealership or is that the soonest the next boat comes?
