My "parts pile" is growing in anticipation of the arrival of this thing:

2x Pirelli Scorpion Verde AS 275/40/21
2x Pirelli Scorpion Verde AS 315/35/21
2x M performance upper black foil graphics (doors)
2x M performance lower black foil graphics (rocker panels)
2x Cerium grey M fender emblems
2x H&R 15mm front spacers w/ lugs
2x H&R 20mm rear spacers w/ lugs
4x custom-length wheel locks
4x satin black 3" exhaust tips
2x A/C underseat vent covers
2x Samsung Galaxy Tab A tablets
2x BMW tablet cases (for the Tab A)
2x BMW tablet seat mounts
2x Samsung 128gb memory cards
2x 10" right-angle micro USB to USB-C cables
2x Edifier H650 flat-foldable headphones
1x M performance European license plate bracket
1x M-color grill inserts

This isn't a "plan"..... this is actual crap, that is actually stacked in boxes in my garage....... waiting. This is why I post so many inquiring threads on here..... research. Incidentally, this is all for a car that is paid in full, that I've never driven, or even SEEN in real life.

Already loaded a TON of children's movies onto one tablet, and a ton of "tween" movies onto the other.

Already have pricing worked out with a local detail shop to refinish the wheels in satin black, and tint the front windows to match the rear. I "may" decide to have the rear diffuser wrapped in gloss carbon (Tow package, so I can't get the M perf one).... haven't decided yet.

(Car is Alpine white with the extended shadowline package)

Still waiting on Auto Tecknik to release the G05 carbon mirror covers, but if that doesn't happen by Jan 1st, I'll just buy the M performance ones.

In the end...... this car can get here ANY..... FRICKIN' ..... TIME...... now.

Anyone else stockpiling parts like I am, in anticipation of the car's arrival? Or perhaps I'm the only idiot doing this???.... LOL
At the rate your car is being built, you might as well return those tablets and get the newest versions once the car gets here
