New M240i xdrive on its way to TO
Hello all
Just ordered a 2018 M240i xdrive specs: alpine white dakota black black wheels glass sunroof m performance exhaust I have been looking a long time for a car to replace my 2016 Cayman S and I loved the m240i I was looking at m2's but I preferred the b58 over the n55. Less turbo lag and more torque. The b58 made the flat six in my cayman...feel well flat... I also have tired of the ride in my sport suspension equipped cayman and the m240i rode better than the m2. I really enjoyed driving the m240i and that was without the performance exhaust option Hope to get the car in April or May and look forward to being a part of this small but mighty community |

Pretty sure you only get the black wheels with summer only non- run flats. You can get the bi-color wheels in either RFT or non-RFT summer only's but not the black finish. Lord knows why.

Congrats on your order. I purchased a vehicle shortly before end of December (wife's Christmas present ). It's a 6MT M240, sunset orange, cognac interior, black rims, performance exhaust and almost every option you can stuff on it lol. Last I heard a week or so ago it's at "status 193" (awaiting boat ride home). I'm hoping that it takes its sweet time since I do not want to purchase a set of snows should it arrive shortly before spring.
I had forgotten about the dealer up sell and useless packages- ugh, just hate going through that process again. Is there really *any* package worth getting? Most often than not, I just stay away - despite the entreaties of the cute young blond thing they use to convince me otherwise. |

When I ordered my 2018, there was a choice between summers and all seasons and I went with the all seasons.

Hey hacxyzzy I ordered around December too (late December). Mine has the following ticked:
-6 speed manual -M Performance Exhaust -Estoril Blue -Black dakota leather (no blue stitching) -Aluminum hexagon with black trim highlight -Style 719M bi-color (staggered) with Michelin PSS *NON-RUN FLAT* -Premium package enhanced -Adaptive LED headlights (to get that hexagonal look) -Storage compartment pack (because all my BMWs have had map pockets before lol!) Vessel should be hitting Halifax tomorrow morning...from then on I am hoping and praying I have it in 2-3 weeks but that'll depend on weather and most important how staffed they are... |

I wanted the Estoril blue too but the wife had her heart set on the Sunset Orange - so SO it is I'm unfamiliar with the "Storage compartment pack" - what option code is that? I hadn't seen that listed anywhere when I ordered.
My car should be on the ship docking tomorrow according to my SA. I figure there's a few days before it gets put on the rail transport. Does anyone here have access to the CN logistics page? |
