My first car did, back in early November after early October prod date. 2 weeks later after the stop sale closed got a call from my SA saying heyyy... bad news the car got damaged at the VPC, they can't sell you the car anymore because the damage is over 3% of the cars value... you gotta order another one aka this one which is currently on a boat in england.

I'm sorry to hear that, that is so frustrating. Did BMW give another allocation to make it right, or did you have to go around and find one? Hope everything goes smoothly this time and you get to pick up your car soon

I'm sure they did, but my dealer had another allocation already, which they just gave me and bmw moved up production from like week 15 to week 4 on that build aka I had like 2 days to lock in my options again before they sent it to "production begins". They added some goodies that I can't really talk about yet so I'm not complaining at all hehe.

Thats great that it got resolved fairly fast and BMW expedited it by cutting your build week by 11 weeks (contrary to my case lol). Was it an individual color order? Lol, its good that they made it up to you with some goodies. Hope all goes well this time.

Technically it's an individual color, but it's the serial individual color they offer so it's not really an individual color lol its the frozen bluestone.

It is an individual color lol, and I think its the best frozen color, extremely underrated. Congratulations, it will look absolutely beautiful.

lol it is, but since it's offered by bmw you don't have to get approval and it doesn't add to the build time which is why im saying it's technically an idividual color. sort of how piano black is technically an individual trim but if it's offered in the main builder it doesn't affect build times. I know it will haha, I saw one in person at a bmw showcase, had the same interior as mine as well but it was completely filthy... (silverstone)
