LOL The miserable need to stick together! You only have two more dots left to go The wait could slow down even further toward the end If it’s any consultation I’m still waiting for confirmation of a production date!

Your going to have a great trip! Initially planned to do ED on this car as I have a trip booked in July. The numbers didn't work this time....

Thanks. The numbers didn't work for me either and had initially ordered a M550 to make the numbers work. I kept going back and forth on options and was just not happy with the fact that there were things I couldn't get on the M550. Finally my wife convinced me that I should just get what I wanted.

Oh that sucks ! I’m thinking I’ll be caught up in that delay as well. So you got confirmation from the factory of a week 21 production? Was your allocation originally slated for week 19? Was the delay from special paint order by chance ?

Nothing like the support of a good women! My wife told me to go for it because she was worn out watching me scour the country looking for my deal
Where are you going in Europe?

I had initially had scheduled for production status for Week 19 when I placed my order 2 weeks ago. I checked last night and it went to order received, so I called genius this morning and they mentioned it was pushed back to week 21.
I have donnington paint, but I did opt for night vision , which is usually not as commonly ordered which might be causing the delay.

BMW Canada is really not helpful. Was at the dealership on Saturday and confirmed the status code of 193 with an ETA of the week after Easter.

Thought it would be good to call BMW to see if they have any additional details today. First tried BMW USA Genius but because the order is a Canadian one, they gave no record of it (as expected but was worth a try).

I then called BMW Canada, they found my order, confirmed the car but accordingly their system, the car should be now at the dealership (I wish).

There seems to be a disconnect of around 3 weeks 😀.

So that drys up my additional information source ... now I'll just have to keep bugging the dealership and receive vague ETA from them. Hopefully that will allow for the road crews to fix as many pot holes as possible before I start breaking in the new car.

My allocation per my CA was for either Week 18 or Week 19. With special paint we anticipated that being pushed back. Been waiting for update on MY BMW but know it is typically not most current source. Called BMW Genius and was given projected / tentative production on Week 21. Was warned that could change.

Yeah, my wife has finally accepted my addiction.

Delivery is scheduled for Monday morning. We're making a run all the way up to the Danish border to have dinner with family on Tuesday evening for my Birthday. Then taking a leisurely trip back south to drop off the car on Saturday. I grew up in Germany and will basically let my wife pick when and where she wants to stop on the way back to Munich.

How awesome. I grew up in Germany as well ....total of 10 years while my dad was in the service. My mom is German. My trip in July will include a trip to Nuremberg to visit family.
