Okay I'll say it! You all can buy a BMW but you can't afford a $110 shirt??? Am I missing something here. A Ralph Lauren Polo shirt costs $90+, it's not customized in anyway. See Link: http://www.ralphlauren.com/product/i...entPage=family Cheap buggers anyway

On another note, I can't believe I just paid $118 bucks for a shirt. |

I don't think any Australian 1M owners are skipping the shirt, especially our cars here cost $115k.

Even if in europe we are used to overpay for a lot of stuff, 110 usd appear to be quite a lot for a shirt...
Nevertheless, i could not resist and ordered mine in orange, with "one of 6309"... Probably the only recommandation is to hide the price to your partner And if he/she discovers the price, you can still argue it worth twice more on ebay (probably true anyway) Last edited by Jean-Marc; 12-01-2012 at 01:16 AM.. |

I'm so surprised by all the grousing here. It's expensive, but the value easily outweighs the cost to me, so it's an easy call. Considering the incredible value I consider my 1M to be, I certainly won't quibble over the cost of the shirt.
Now, if only they offered it in blue. |

Ordered mine, wasn't sure on the sizing, normally I'm a medium but I measured my polo t-shirts and they are all about 52cm for the chest, I hate baggy shirts so I went with the small, hope it fits!

I'm going to order. Still trying to decide on what to put on the sleeve.
But when I measure a pretty full sized golf shirt I'm wearing today, I come up with just a bit over 63cm. Because I hate tight (euro fit) I'd go with XXL, but I'm concerned it will be a dress!!!! Thoughts?

It's like ordering a 1M in VO: never seen and driven the car - never seen the color IRL. 1 size only. No margin for error. And you got to wait for it too. But that costs a bit more than a polo shirt.

Not cheap, The value to cost is not there. 110 for a tag on a BMW polo, I am sorry as mentioned before. Why would I spend that on a tag. I rather spend the funds on parts than a polo. My 2 cents.

Touche', unless......... Someone backs out of an order and you place a deposit on the car while on vacation so that you can go view it in person 4 days later

Interesting this point of our (slightly pathetic) lives; after spending sleepless nights just to decide which color to order and watching many photos and videos I had to order my VO 1M back in May 2011 without seeing one in person. Then, the first specimen arrived to the country in VO (Turkey at the time, was July 2011) and I went to the dealer who kindly called me to see it and I did not like the color under the showroom interior lights, was a cold shower effect. Later, when I took delivery of my car at the end of October 2011 under the orange-bright Chilean sun I just loved it. However, I may very well end up receiving a dress instead of a t-shirt! Could use it as an excuse to put some more weight though
