If you have a reserved spot, they will basically hand over the keys to the model of your choosing and allow you to drive it around town (alone) for 25mins. Additionally before the test drive you get to hear an M red talk about the technology of the DCT and a special discussion about the X ///M models (nothing special).

I was able to speak with an X ///M marketing rep who was kind enough to call a BMW contact for some clarification about the euro driving event/ delivery. According to his source you will not take delivery of the X ///M during the event (if you live in the US). Its nothing more then an ///M track day which is focused on the X ///M technology. Build date is in Sept for Oct delivery. In addition to the special X ///M colors (red/blue/black), the standard color pallet will also be available. No engine shots as they didn't want close ups of the engine just yet.
Thanks for pics. How do you like it in person as compared to official pics?
Our member SANguru was also at the event today. I spoke to him but I will let him post his comments.
