I assume your three week estimate is three weeks after the build is complete? Or three weeks after the start of build?

Thank you in advance for all your help!
When you have a chance, call Genius again and see what the next one says. The reason I'm saying that is that the vehicle will go into the Production Begins status about two weeks prior to your production date. That does not mean that assembly has begun but rather that a VIN has been assigned and parts ordered/allocated. Actually assembly takes less than a day. I just want to make sure they were quoting the production week and not two weeks before since the way they answered your question is not the way they usually do. They usually quote a production week number.

BMW uses ISO weeks for their scheduling so week two would be Jan 8 - 14th.

My estimate was from when it was shipped.
