The Delivery Chamber283 viewsThis is my M3 with 2 miles on the odometer in its own little room at the Performance Center, where all its functions would be explained and the keys handed over to me. I brought a license plate with me for its butt.

My M3 in Front of the Plant228 viewsIt was a rainy, misty day. In fact, it was a rainy, misty weekend. I had hoped to do some mountain hiking in North Carolina, but it was too rainy and foggy for that. I did, however, get to test my new fog lights on the Blue Ridge Parkway.

The Zentrum203 viewsThis ante-building, in front of the BMW assembly plant, houses a museum and a gift shop (of course), as well as serving as the starting point for plant tours. Here, we see members of my group heading into the Zentrum after taking delivery of their cars. Leading the way is my delivery specialist, Jonathan, followed by the Greenville orthodontist and the Two X5 Guys from Philly (one scratching ankle).

Here's the Front View195 viewsOK. Enough car pictures for now! I managed to drive the entire length of the Blue Ridge Parkway in North Carolina, from the Virginia line to the Great Smokeys National Park on the Tennessee border. I had rain and fog much of the way.
