Rejected my M3 due to scratches rear headlight misalignment, front door misalignment, sunroof misalignment, and front trunk not closing properly. The doors were also finicky.

Very disappointing experience as it seemed like they were just trying to push cars out.

Did you happen to take pics of the issues?

Just the time of production. Since my VIN starts with 848 which is the same as Gioreyes94, it means our cars were produced around the same time. Depending on the last digits as well, maybe they were right beside each other during manufacture . The newer ones will have higher numbers... something like 850***.

Thanks. That makes sense. I've got a 852. So they all seem to be part of the same batch.

I did but we are getting a brand new vehicle instead of accepting and fixing a car before it's even been driven.

Just picked mine up today. They called me to confirm for the 23rd and then asked if I wanted to come today! I used the checklist and didn't have any issues so I accepted delivery. Total of 5 weeks from order to delivery.

Thanks again to everyone for answering my questions. This is a great forum.

where there any door misalignments?

where there any door misalignments?

I had no issues with my delivery. 12 days from ordering to delivery.

where there any door misalignments?

That's what surprised me the most, no issues whatsoever with door or panel alignment. There was however a very faint scratch near the driver door handle, but I accepted delivery anyways as it is barely noticeable. I think this is the most I've scrutinized a car at delivery, probably has something to do with me obsessively reading all the posts prior to delivery.

Also, I can confirm the delivery specialist told me we all get free supercharging for a year!

If you plan on getting any professionally applied ceramic coating, minor items like you describe will be "paint corrected" at the same time.

2.5 years ago, I accepted delivery of my (pearl white) TM3 that was covered in swirls from a pre-delivery attempt to correct some issues...I accepted delivery knowing that all the swirls would disappear when I had paint correction done to the car prior to a ceramic coating.

I was planning on doing PPF on the rockers and ceramic coating myself. I've done it in the past. Considering the car is new, would the paint correction be absolutely necessary prior to ceramic coating?

Yes.

I did paint correction and applied Adam's Graphene Ceramic Coating. Looks amazing. Once it's cured, I will be taking it out for a photoshoot.

Looks like I'm not getting my car this year and will miss the free year of supercharging. Ordered early Nov, no VIN, no delivery estimate with only 5 days left.

Look at a section of paint under a spotlight. If you see scratches or swirls then correction is needed.

Copy. And I'm guessing the whiter the light the better? I've noticed all pro detailing shops have super white lights. I'm thinking about getting some for the garage. Currently just have those led ones from amazon that with 3 flaps that plug into a lightbulb socket.

Those super bright white lights are LEDs with a light temperatureof probably 5000k. The amount of light helps more than the color. You can still see swirls under halogen bulbs.
