Is anyone planning a South Carolina Performance Center Delivery for late October or early November? Has anyone already done the delivery and, if so, whats the day like? Thanks! -Auggie
Performance Delivery Arrived on July 16 Took delivery on an M3 July 17 Stayed at Marriott - had nice dinner - this is all paid for by BMW Breakfast on BMW Short drive to P-School Safety briefing then right to the cars - M3s with 6 speeds , the instructors said that DCT M3s were on their way For a novice like me, it was a day in heaven ABS braking while making a turn - progressive from 30 mph to over 50 mph Closed track running through slalom, hard right-hander, ess curves (this was a relatively short course, but challenging and fun nonetheless) Break - two hour delivery personalized by a staff member (Willy did ours, well-informed and professional) Nice lunch - good conversation with instructors (they answered all of my naive questions) Skid pad (wet) X5 off road course Plant tour/museum visit The driving instructors were fantastic - all sessions used radios in the cars, they talked us through all the activities They ride with you on the skid pad This is a highly recommended experience - we will do it again and we will probably attend some of the schools that they offer - my teenage son will also attend the P-school in the near future
Thanks 2Tonic - sounds like a great day...I can't wait! After getting my e46 M3 delivered to the dealership, I did the M school in 2003 - it was a blast. I'm very excited for delivery and the opportunity to run through the course with an e92 M3!
just took PC delivery Jul14/08 and its worth the trip and the extra 2 weeks of waiting. Its a must do in my book, plus currently its getting alot of buzz folks opt for it and you should too. Enjoy
Thanks CryNoMo - when you went, did you bring someone along? If so, was your guest able to participate in all of the activities (track time, etc.)?
I was a soloist. But you are authorized to bring a guest for a night accomodation, dinner and breakfast the following morning of the delivery. You share your 2 hr track time wih your guest. Yes! your guest are able to participate unless they are minors. wear closed end shoes btw. Enjoy!
