Build and tracking.

Here is my build and tracking so far. I will update the numbers and dates as I switch to finance. (Sent email to CA to make the switch to finance and apply APR credit, waiting for response) Wish me good luck, you know.... heard many stories.

Update: APR credit of 2000 extended into March.

xDrive / xLine
Dark Graphite
21 inch run flats
Ivory White Vernasca
Dark Ash Brown Wood Trim
Premium Package
3rd row / Air susp
Glass Controls
Parking Assistance Plus
Harmon Kardon
Laser Lights
Multi Contour Seats

$74,220 - $7,457 = $66,763 - $750.00 finance credit - $2,000 APR credit = $64,013 (Used BMW Fin. as they did beat BOFA rate upon showing pre-approval and gave me 750 rebate)

Sales Tax was calculated on $66,763 + Tire and Wheel protection + Full Maintenance I purchased.

Tracking:

2-15-20 - Order created on existing allocation.
2-15-20 - Production Scheduled
2-18-20 - Production Begins
2-28-20 - Entering Assembly Line
2-28-20 - Quality Check
2-29-20 - Awaiting Carrier Assignment

Nice build and good luck! Was your estimated completion date today or tomorrow? You'll probably see it dispatched from factory by tomm.

Thanks.

No. Genius still said Mar 2nd., even after it moved to Quality Check. At this rate it will catch a ride by that date.

On any custom build, would strongly recommend checking through BMW "My Garage" to see if car is optioned correctly.

Had just placed an order for G05 X40i with ivory white/navy blue seats and "Alcantara headliner in upholstery color" which shows up to be a light-colored headliner on the BMW configurator.

Just happened to check on the BMW site and was surprised to see that the dealer ordered "Anthracite Alcantara headliner" instead which is truly opposite of what we wanted.

Though the order was placed just 2 days ago, the dealer could not change the order to "Alcantara headliner in upholstery color"; apparently the BMW system is not allowing them to change even though on the tracking site, it is on the very first step as "order received."

The worst part of this is the dealer would have to probably trade the car, and is looking for another allocation since he does not have any build allocation soon. Therefore, the car is going to be delayed at least a few weeks.

Hoping that MF does not change for the worse, if the car is ordered in March instead of February. Just to clarify, the order was all done by email so I did not sit with the dealer manager while he was entering the order in the BMW system.

Hope that helps!

As long as you did the credit application you are locked in for 60 days, I think 90 in some instances, and can take the lowest mf for that time period.

Changed to Awaiting Carrier Assignment around 10pm. They did quality check for whole day. It should last for 500,000 miles and 15 years.

Still in production. I have not paid the dealer anything so far and they admitted that their sales manager made the mistake while putting the order into BMW Build system.

They can't blame me as I had given them a correct BMW build code after configuring at BMW USA website!

Thanks.

I remember seeing this on BMW website and dealer website

"$2,000 APR Credit is a credit against the MSRP of the vehicle purchased. APR and credits valid through March 02, 2020."

You guys think it will end tomorrow ?

It will end tomorrow and more than likely be reinstated on Tuesday. They run them monthly.

I think the reason they couldn't change his order is because there are individual options in his build not because it is on a production stage.

Hi ChickenX5- our builds must be sisters! Have a similar production schedule to you. I ordered on the 11 on an available allocation and started tracking on 2/18-

2/18- Production Begins
2/27- Entering Assembly Line
2/28- Quality Check
2/29-3/1- Awaiting Carrier Assignment

My previous experience is that things do move faster from here and hopefully we will get to see them this week or weekend!

Nice build. Congratulations!! Both probably are sitting on ramp chatting.

Too bad I can not close until weekend. Did not expect it to move this fast. Need to arrange logistics.

My brother to your cars now has been “Dispatched from Factory” and is on the way to dealer in Slowmaha, so maybe by the weekend. Hoping your new whips are on the way and arrive soon!

Still says 'Awaiting Carrier Assignment'. I wouldn't be surprised if CA calls me today saying it is here.

Jrseyshoregirl what is your status ?
