German delivery is possible. However, having recently driven across the continent from Germany not hugely enthusiastic about it as it’ll run the 1500km run-in mileage up in that one trip BMW take no prisoners where that initial service is missed.
I assume you’re based in the ‘States so how does Munich delivery work for you?
Why is it worth it?

It was an awesome trip for us in North America and one that was discounted. Europeans pay for Welt Delivery and NA customers would get a discount 5%? Off the cost of the car. Obviously the cheapskates at BMW cancelled the program for us Yanks during Convid we can longer do it 👎. It was a great time to get accustomed to your car on some of the best driving roads and a sweet vacation as well. We did it 4 times. PCD was whatever to us and only did it once.

Very nice build.
It's a shame we don't have the PCD in Australia

@mattinfll - Congrats on your X6 and also selecting Jon Shafer as your CA. My wife and I have gotten 3 BMWs from Jon including our 2023 M550 last June. We haven't done a PCD yet but we were fortunate to do European deliveries in 2016 and 2017. Cheers!

Congrats on your new toys. I did PCD 3 times. Passed on it for the last 2 cars. Love the X6 and the color combination, it is spectacular. But I am biased. Enjoy it and be safe down there.

Definitely an awesome experience. If I ever win the lottery, I’ll buy one too.
