Anyone start production yet?

//M · 06-28-2018, 07:30 PM

I checked today and my car started production yesterday!

HS
Exec
6 speed
Blue stitching
No moonroof

I'm happy but slightly nervous getting one of the first cars. I just hope nothing silly happens like it getting held at Port for a recall/update or a emissions certification hold.

Estimated completion date is July 11th, so it seems like they're taking their time on the first ones, extra checks perhaps?

Anyway I can't wait.

Congrats. Exciting. I'm doing same color with orange and I opted for moon roof. I like it. Did you go light or dark rims?

Please tell me you're in the bay area....

I received my VIN yesterday as well. I didn't get an estimated completion date though.

Call 18444436487. They can probably tell you.

The M2C production has started two days ago. First up are the worldwide press vehicles, then the dealer demo specs and then the customer cars.

Nothing new to that. We knew it would start around July.

Dark wheels. I'm very likely to do a bunch of exterior carbon trim so it'll go nicely.

Shankska · 06-29-2018, 08:13 AM

Mine started production yesterday as well

m20e3087 · 06-29-2018, 10:05 AM

Just checked its scheduled for production, week 31. Hopefully they will move it up.

Cameron.mac · 06-29-2018, 10:52 AM

Mine is also a Week 31, which means start of production around Mid-July I'm guessing

james33 · 06-29-2018, 01:48 PM

Sure hope they don't get the first cars in and then hold them at port or the dealer until some specific "release date". I've heard the official release is in September.... That would royally suck to have your car ready and in the states and sitting somewhere for 2 months.

hyperrift · 06-29-2018, 02:47 PM

I'm still 111

Kuervers · 06-29-2018, 04:31 PM

150 status yesterday also originally week 30 now 28. Very excited considering short driving season in canada

Please,
How can I check the status of my car (Canada)?

DieGrüneHölle · 06-29-2018, 09:07 PM

Are they really going to build these cars and have them sit until Sept 17th? That is crazy.

Your dealer can look it up for you.

It has happened before. Didn’t some X3M40i owners have to wait it out just last year?

It happened with the 135i in 2008. None of the cars were released until March of 2018. My car sat at the dealer.

MR. · 06-30-2018, 07:04 AM

There is no specific release date as far as I heard...

Mine does not have a slot yet, but we in Europe hardly have slots right now. I am waiting for that right now.

I checked the BMW computer on Wednesday and mine was in there but not allocated.
