European Delivery Experience Pics & Vids

Recently came back form picking up my E63 in Germany. ...... Highly recommend the experience. The only downside is waiting for your car to arrive to USA after driving in Europe.
here is a video or our trip....

Great video. Nice to see that you got delivery in the center of excellence.

We were supposed to have that too, but got bumped at the last minute, probably by some frequent flyer picking up a Maybach. Mercedes handled it well though, I must say.

Herbert was really first rate.

Maybe next time we'll head south. I travel to Nice, well, Sophia Antipolis really, from time to time for work but haven't had the pleasure of driving around on my own in the area and it seems like that would really be fun.

Wow... I didn't get Center of Excellence like that either... bummer. I was in a huge hall with Smart Cars and C-classes. And agreed: Herbert is fantastic... I may need to go back for the order-redux, in which case it's either Nice or Paris, though Switzerland is remarkable.

Nice work with the drone too. Was that a challenge to travel with internationally?

No trouble traveling with drone. Batteries were in individual pouches.

Looks incredible and congratulations on the car. I shipped my 911 Turbo S from Miami to Rotterdam a few years ago. We drove through 8 countries in 2 months and put on 10,000 miles. There's nothing like driving your own car on European roads. Next time we'll do it in a fast 4 door or wagon as we're now three! Maybe I'll send my E63 wagon as it would be the perfect continental cruiser.

Cool! Care to share info on shopping cost, carrier and logistics? Also curious how you handled insurance. Thanks.
