It's my first too. Adaptive M is just the suspension.

It continuously monitors the conditions and adjust accordingly. It also gets soft or firm based on mode car is in like comfort or sport.

Invoice price is $820 and msrp is $900. If you going to add try and get at invoice price.

I'm a little confused with the shape part. Does it give different bumpers in the rear and the front? sorry...

Nothing to do with bumpers only the suspension type. You might be confusing it with the M package?

Thanks again for the help and the tip. Just curious if it is going to take more than 8 weeks for me... We will see... Just my sales guy isn't that nice enough to give me info. on my car since I really gave him a hard time negotiating the car price. hahaha

You can ask your CA for it. It should be on the order sheet that you get from your CA when they place the order. I ordered mine on 02/25 and I collected my order sheet on 02/27 and when I logged into BMWUSA.com my order was already accepted.

Thanks for sharing the info. I hope my 2 months goes fast!

Go to customer center > schedules

Search by trade route, North America - Europe inbound. That will bring up a .pdf of the schedule.

Your CA can tell you what boat your car will be on once it is scheduled for a ship.
