Awesome - It will be a blast (both the Euro delivery -and getting to drive your car around while you are there).
My did did that with his 1994 E32. He always talked about it - and gave my Mom lots of excuses to shaker her head - that was so fun to see them both engaged that way.

About to do something very stupid
Quote:
Fixed that for you Loving my 66% 3 year residual on the 550... checked trade value recently out of curiosity and Im at least $20k upside down right now due to the high residual. Let BMW take the hit. This one will definitely be my record in terms of gap between residual and actual lease end ACV.

Congratulations on the early birthday gift. I likey likey both the specs and trip agenda. Anything with "orange" in the name is a good thing, although SO is more reddish than orange most times, and reminds me of IR, and that certainly doesn't reek. Awwww.....nice......to have another orange titled car on the board.
The only comment about the trip details is I would spend more time in the Salzburg and Berchtesgaden area. It's great you have the Eagles Nest on the list, but there's the salt mines, Konigsee and great walking trails to help drink in the beautiful Alpine air and scenery. The kids will be tired due to the jet lag, and a day or two to help everyone unwind and decompress will set up the rest of the trip to be better enjoyed, imo. But even as its planned, it's going to be a great gig for everyone. Oh, and thanks for not getting a Tesla. You can get one of those later, once you're an over 40 geezer..........lol.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good job, FC. Get the car you want so you spend money and enjoy it instead of buying and saying “I should have....” It’s not the last car you’re ever going to buy either way.
