2024 BMW i5 M60 Frozen Deep Grey, Build Your Own to Pre-delivery

Pre-delivery of my 2024 Frozen Deep Grey BMW i5 M60, from the "Customize This Build" order to delivery day. Photos of when it was on the Apollon Leader going through the Panama Canal to being offloaded at Port Hueneme, in Oxnard, California to making its final journey to Sterling BMW in Newport Beach, California. I pre-ordered the vehicle to spec in April ‘23. The build was completed third week in September and shipped with an ETA of “end of October“. I took delivery on October 28th after it was cleared through the vehicle PDC. The journey across the Atlantic took about 5-6 weeks. After 6 months of ownership, I just couldn't do it anymore. The electric "buzz", all the hype, and the hoopla surrounding it wore off and I realized, this car may have a BMW badge, but it's no BMW. I got rid of it for a 2024 BMW M850i - WHAT A CAR! The G14 with 533 HP thundering out of a twin turbo V8. The growl and thrill that comes with that can never be replaced with an electric car. With the F90 variant coming out in a few months, and looking almost identical, with 700hp, that wasn't an option either. Why would I pay $160k for a 5k lbs COW that looks almost identical with the cheap interior and still force my self to believe I'm happy. This forced marriage wasn't going to last. So, the M850i it is! I haven't been happier in 25 years of owning 16 BMWs. From my i3S, to X3, X5, X7, 740, 750s, 645 convertible, to this M850i. Link to the M850i video:    • Видео
