The day has finally come! Just took delivery of the Beast today. Long day...
I was expecting a lot of face palm moments from the QC, but I was shocked that nothing needed to be submitted via the app to get fixed! Lucky I guess, but I wasn't expecting what I saw today.
The alignment in the front area were great, sides were good, rear hood/bumper were good, and the under areas were spotless without any scuffs or scrapes. It was so clean you could eat off of it.
The interior was almost spotless, a little dirt scuffs in some places and on the ceiling, but nothing a damp microfiber cloth couldn't fix. Doors closed well, window seals were tight (I even took it to a self serve car wash to just spray spotless water on it and it was solid. No leaks.), trunk and frunk closed well... no issues. I did request to not have the car washed at all and that wish was granted. Now I can wash it properly, clay bar etc... myself before the full PPF install with the tint to follow.
It did come with floor mats and the adapter, but no mobile charger as expected. Glad that I bought mine when I did.
Love the driving dynamics and I do prefer it over the MYP in terms of fun. The M3P reminds me a lot of my former BMWs. It's definitely a proper >3.5 sec car for sure and it pulls nicely even at higher passing speeds. (As expected.)
As many have said before, the wait is worth it. Just manage your expectations early on, start the timer and only start worrying after the average ~60 day mark or so. Anything before that is just another wasted grey hair. Not worth it. West coast team, I know how frustrating it is to see all the cars getting allocated to the east and mid-west first; that very same config that could have been yours. Sucks I know, but just hang in there and expect that to happen and it'll save you a lot of grief.
It was awesome hanging out with you all. Thanks for all the support and carrying the log with me (military training). I'll poke in here from time to time, but I'll be hanging out on another platform. Feel free to DM me if you'd like to reach out and have any questions about my experience!
