I am in Atlanta now with the 240D. Everything went perfect until I got to the hotel where we are staying for the ball game. I shut the car off and came back out after registering and the car was completely dead. Nothing was powering on. It turns out I missed tightning one nut. The one on the battery cable. It was about 1.1/2" from the battery. I stuck it on and the car started right up. I had to laugh.
