Mine had it by default as well. On a separate note, requested an individual green color that is waiting approval so I hope that it works fine with it. Do you know if they have a "50 Jahre" badge inside as well? Or if its just the emblems on the exteriors?

Unless I request a vehicle inquiry report from my dealer is there another way to figure out if mine will have it? it was made 1st week of feb.

The production was 1st week of February? I took over a 111 allocation on 1st of February, and they gave me this build sheet on 2nd with the emblem as a default selection. I hadn't selected anywhere. The dealer should be able to provide the build sheet so you can check it if it was included or not I think

Yes my car was made 2/3 so I'm wondering if it has it on. We shall see when I pick it up from the dealer. Congrats on your car!

Haha definitely will. FYI the way things move with BMW make no sense so try your best to exercise patience. I'm dispatched from factory but still somehow at the factory? people have had there cars built after me but are already at the port. Crazy stuff going on there!

Thanks for the heads up, I came across some posts about that. Seems like its an orchestrated chaos in there. But oh well, I'm sure it will be worth the wait at the end of the day. Lets see what they have in store lol

Our builds are similar. You have some more M Perf parts, CCBs and drivers assistance plus. Considering we were the same week still doesn't explain why I'm at the factory and you're at port

I hope your car gets on a ship soon man

I like the way the 820s look, but I was going to swap them out for forged aftermarket wheels anyway relatively quickly. Just haven't taken the time to start looking for the new wheels yet.

Yeah dude, doesn't seem like anything make sense anymore when it comes to logistics or supply chain. FWIW, my status is still "at the port," so who knows how long it will be sitting there.

If you check your build online I believe you'll see it under the standard options.

I prefer the look as well, I didn't know they weren't forged lol... funny that it's an "option" on the comp when in reality it's a downgrade...

Unfortunately not showing on mine. All is well the standard roundels do just fine for me.

I'm sure the wait will not be longer than 2-3 weeks total. Update us when you get a ship assignment! You're right though, no process seems to be followed in these crazy times. Definitely not the best first experience with BMW. First time I've ever had a car built for me and my first BMW.
