European Delivery Stuttgart

Has anyone here done European Delivery of their cars? I did it thru BMW and it was a great experience, please share your observations.

I've always thought of doing it, but if you check the Porsche web site, they charge a hefty fee for doing it... unlike BMW who actually gives you a hefty credit on the car purchase.

That would certainly take some of the fun out of taking european delivery for me

BMW's website not only offers discounts, but Lufthansa is linked on their site and they have great offers for 2nd persons to go on the flight.

European Delivery is $1,150 for the Boxster.

You still need to be careful with the car and respect the break-in period on the Autobahn!

Yes you must observe the break in!

Better make it an S for the Euro delivery. At 4200 RPM in 6th you will be doing about 105 mph.

Don't ask me how I know.
