It seems as if they have 2 scheduled pick ups today. Might have to do it tomorrow.

Cabbage · 03-15-2021, 01:52 PM

I ended up calling them back, and I was able to schedule a pickup today!

Cabbage · 03-15-2021, 07:47 PM

Got the car! Looks stunning! We picked up the car later in the day, so I'll post better day photos later. Photos can not show how good Tanzanite Blue looks in person! (Also saw a Toronto Red M4 Competition.)

Quick question, do you know if front license plates are required in New York?

Cabbage · 03-15-2021, 08:53 PM

Here is another pic from the rear.

I believe they are required in New York. The car looks great. I will be picking up my 540 next month from the same dealership. Did you request that they do not drill holes for the front plate? I was thinking of telling them to not do it.

I didn't request anything. Just came like that.

Stunning car! Congrats!

it is always difficult to get the colour on camera! I know the colour as had a tanzanite blue 530e touring 2 weeks ago for the day. Looking at the pictures i thought that the interiour would stand out more, maybe at daylight?

In regards to the m4 : That car has a required taste

Yeah, Mocha is a dark brown. I actually said when I first saw the color, that I thought it was Black! But once you sit inside, it looks very classy.

Hey Cabbage. The car looks SPECTACULAR. I am loving it. Very happy for you bud. Congrats. Yes New York State does require a front license plate. Maybe you can get one of those screw in license plate holder that screws into the front tow bar section. I see them alot on BMWs.
I scheduled my pick up April 29th ( Good Friday ). My lease goes through to the end of April. My sales Advisor will store it until then.

Cabbage · 03-16-2021, 10:16 PM

I'm most likely going to get it drilled in. I don't know why the dealer didn't do it to begin with. I like it when it is drilled in.

H_T · 03-17-2021, 04:40 AM

When I was in Ohio, I took a chance and did not drill. Had it for 4 years before I got 1 ticket from an officer known to monitor a road for any violations.

By then, I moved to a state that does not require front plates, so for me the chance was worth it.

I'm just waiting until I get my real plates. Currently running the temporary plates.

Hey There. That is funny. My sister in law gets all her BMWs from Springfield. She has a 2020 530. I am getting the M304i xdrive Tanzanite Blue with Oyster interior. This is the 2nd car I got from Manhattan. I waited 6 years for Tanzanite (long story) and Manhattan was able to get it for me. Not a great deal on the lease but I really wanted that color combination. Probably wont pick it up until the end of the month as I need to have the current 3 inspected before I turn it in. Inspection scheduled for the 29th. Unless Manhattan will take it in before that date without the end of lease inspection. have to take the 3 in to Manhattan tomorrow to tap up the brake fluid. Will ask if I can see it. Hopefully yes. I got the X6 from Rallye, decent deal on it, nothing special but enjoying it too.

Hey Cabbage. Picking it up April 30. Just had the current 3 inspected last week Monday by autovin. Had a small scratch in the bumper so they want to charge me $400.00. We will see. Riding out the lease on the current 3 which is up the end of this month. The car is here but sitting in a warehouse either in NJ or or the city. Manhattan is holding it till my lease is up. Will keep you posted and post pics on the 3 forum when I get it. Hopefully I can figure out how to post pics. lol. How is your lear jet.

Sounds stressful. The car has been nice! I've figured out all my settings and everything by now.

BMW wants to charge you $400 for a scratch? How bad is that scratch?

I had a legit dent, and 4x curbed wheels and they charged me $100 total on my lease return for a 2018 440. They're usually pretty forgiving on lease inspections - especially when they know you're picking up a new bmw
