Great to hear atruelunatic. The last custom order I did in 2023 (same time of yr) the delivery took 3 weeks to Seattle. Two weeks would be a very nice outcome, but not likely. The positive is there isnt any nasty incliment weather yet. If we were in Dec, I’d be est at least a month. The weird part about the BMW Genius automated line, is it said my unit was “en route to dealer”… but the operator had different but likely more accurate data.

Hit status 190 this morning, dispatched from factory. Trending towards picking up by next weekend.

Great news G-Mann. I also hit 190 as well. Was told by a gal on BMW Genius the train to Kansas City is four days, then a switch to another train taking 16 days to get out here… I imagine the delivery out to Texas is taking a different route.

This morning i kicked over a day an a half of being in "Entering Assembly Line" to "quality Control". Hopefully moves through quickly!

I know im preaching to the choir, but man waiting is TOUGH hah.

Latest status today is at the BMW Center.

Hopefully arranging to ship from MS to WA won’t be too bad and quick.

The waiting does stink, but you’ll appreciate it that much more. Rather than assume, have you tried calling the BMW Genius line? They’ll have more realtime info than the app does - thats what I found.

Wow. Yours arrived in MS quickly. If that is Kansas City, & yours is being delivered by train, your prob looking at 11days from today…thats based on what BMW genius told me this am.

Should be working with the MS dealer in the coming days to arrange the shipment from them to me. Not sure if it would go train or big rig, will update as I get more info.

Interestingly checked status again this afternoon and hit 198 at the dealership. Haven't heard anything from my SA yet.

Hopefully they’re able to include on the rail from KC…I would think less costly as its already built in the pricing…hopefully you get good news, quickly.

Right, did not get an enthusiast vibe from this SA. Still seems to be a bit of a disconnect on where the vehicle actually is, SA is saying it has not arrived at the dealership yet.

That happens every so often, all depends when the carrier reports as delivered. For my X5, it showed as "At the Dealership" on a Saturday morning but didn't actually arrive until the following Wednesday afternoon. The carrier marked the wrong vehicle as delivered.

TurtleBoy, speaking of X5’s, how are you liking the one you have? Do you have any likes/dislikes?

I have had it coming up on 7 years so that should tell you something. Many likes, not sure I have any dislikes about the vehicle itself.

SA just notified me the X6 is at the dealership. Hopefully I wrap this up tomorrow afternoon, still have a trade to negotiate.

My order was perfectly timed. Ordered on 10/21, build locked same night 10/21, Arrived at TX dealership 11/7, picked up on 11/8. 18 days to take delivery on a custom order, that might be a record.
