Just called, spoke to live rep ( supposedly more accurate) Was told completion 2/22. But I find that hard to believe as it is a Sat & also online tracker does not show assembly started - we will see.
What did the automated system say? I'm basing my experience on the automated system dates. My first X5 order also had an estimated completion date of Saturday (1/25), and sure enough, on Friday (1/24), I saw the status change around 1 pm PST to "Entering Assembly Line." Throughout the same day it went all the way through "Quality Check." And even during Saturday, it progressed all the way through to "Awaiting Carrier Assignment." So don't be surprised if your car moves along later today and progresses throughout today and tomorrow. My current X5 order is currently in assembly right now and is in the "Quality Check" phase. My estimated completion date for it was today. I expect it will progress throughout the day.
