Excellent!
I love the look of the coupe and I hope to trade our old 318i for a 123d coupe (if they bring them to Australia...)
The map database is something that is added to the car locally, so I would imagine that you'll have v14 with the car. Make sure they do give you the most up to date version.
Did you know that you can track your car, once it has been produced and you have a VIN (the dealer can give you the VIN as soon as it has left the factory)? I tracked my car on the ship, all the way from Germany!
Once you have your VIN, go to the Wallenius & Wilhelmsen website (
www.2wglobal.com), select 'Cargo Tracking', track by 'Auto' and then enter your full VIN into the field marked 'Cargo ID'.
You'll see your car appear as soon as it has been booked for a journey. You can click on the VIN to look at the ship details, the journey details (where it will be and when), etc etc.
It certainly makes the wait exciting!

PS: If your car does come with v14, I'd be happy to look after an off-site backup of your map database for you :wink:
(BMW charges about $400 for it!)
