Cool Introducing....cmyX6go

Here she is....







I had the time of my life yesterday. What a great experience. I can't recommend PCD enough. If you are ordering a BMW, you MUST do PCD.

Firstly, thanks to this site. You come for the information but stay for the friendships is so true. X5flyboy drove from Charleston to Spartanburg to share in my delivery excitement. Thanks Mark. I met Diesel guy and his daughter, they took delivery the same day. I met Kaefer for dinner last night and AzNMpower for lunch today. I received texts and calls from B-Line, Ucrew, Michelle, LeMansX5, Kaefer, noncom, Rastagurl and wait....even Gresch. I love you guys!

I missed my calling in life. I should have been a race car driver. I owned the slalom! They split us up into groups of three. My group consisted of me in a 50i X6 and two 3 series. The slalom is a mini road track with cones set up on the straight away that you need to weave through. You can go as fast as you want, provided you don't get sloppy. For the road track, they set up cones as "marks" so you know your line, where to brake and where to accelerate. I started out as the lead car and tore up the course. I did it so fast, I wound up up the ass of the last car. I hit every mark, every time. Took the slalom like a pro and didn't knock down any cones. The instructor took the other guys off the course and made me run it solo. He told me that I was doing great, but he would make me do it better. So as I drove, he called out instructions....full throttle, break hard now...Ray (the instructor) couldn't believe I never had professional instruction. I thought he was blowing smoke up my butt, until my friend Tina overheard Ray bragging to Donnie Isely (professional race car driver and instructor at PCD) how I hit every mark every time. I think M driving school is next. They will remember I was there. And for the record, I DID tell Donnie, in front of a room full of people that I heard he was better than a roller coaster.

The X6 is amazing. NO BODY ROLL and what a beast. I behaved myself coming through Virginia but tore it up as soon as I hit WV. Once I was in NJ

I also got 17.5 mpg on the trip. Now that's impressive.

Congrats! I think a change in profession is in order...matches your handle.

Nice of X6. You look like a pro driver in X6.....better than Danica...Danica will have to leave once you enter pro racing.

Thank you, drod. You are going to be blown away by the X6. I also went from a 2008 e70. The difference is remarkable. The ride quality is amazing...smooth as silk. The new idrive is so much quicker, the rear camera is a huge improvement, and the handling I can make it go sideways.

Thank you. Do not pass up the opportunity. I want to do it again. Make sure you reserve a camera so they can video you on the track. I didn't do it

Will they let someone PCD a 2003 4.6is? I know it already has 90+k miles but they should work with me!

Glad you had a great time, and showed them boys who the boss was on the courses! Something tells me as much as you will want to buy this X6 at the end of lease you will probably switch it up just to PDC again... cmyX6Mgo?

Looks absolutely beautiful, and sounds like an amazing time. The Performance Center rarely disappoints. Glad to hear you enjoyed the ride home and sorry I wasn't in town to join in the festivities with everyone else.

17.5 mpg? How in the hell?
