Interesting - I was just looking at the configurer again & they now show all the Merino choices extended & full with a availability notice they are considered individual,
and could add 10 weeks. This was not there for extended previously.

Yes, they added that notice a few weeks ago for a number of items: priority 1 paint (tanzanite or ametrin), merino leather and a priority 1 trim (piano black, wood ash, cross black)

Told you. Mine just entered "Dispatched from factory." Yours will likely get to that stage tomorrow at some point.

Well I was at entering assembly line this morning, now has jumped to quality check. Strange as I thought they didn't work on Saturdays. Not complaining, just interesting.

Since the online tracking is often behind what actually is happening, it could be it went into QC yesterday and just got updated today. Hopefully yours will not be in QC too long and will be on its way soon.

Wondering if the Corona virus is going to delay build times on the X5? Fox News specifically mentioned BMW could experience delays but I don't know if these means specific models or all models since they are built in different places.

Did you ever get your Production #? If yes, then call BMW NA's automated system @ 1-800-831-1117. Choose the option to talk to a human, not the automated system. Given Week 9 is this week, there should be a Completion Date...most likely, tomorrow and they can tell you what it is.

As has been mentioned by others, it's not unheard of for things to be behind online. The # above has different data than what you see online...but if you're date is 2/28, there's still a very likely chance that it will start moving shortly and move all the way through by Friday/Saturday (Saturday just means there's a lag in the data, as the line is closed on Saturday...)

No production number.....I did call they told me they can only see what I see no more.... so they can't give me anymore information. Other than its scheduled

Sorry, I'm obviously not being a lot of help on this one.

I did go back and read the start of the thread, as I was confused...

So, you do have a Production #. It was in the original picture you published. It's 0644549. (Unless, your dealer swapped you to a different allocation, which would have changed your Production # and likely Build Week?)

What was confusing me was how you didn't have one, yet indicated you were checking things online, as to my limited knowledge, the only way to check your status online or calling BMW NA is to either have a Production # or a VIN.

I'm surprised you don't have a date if you're Week 9...Did the BMW NA Production Specialist confirm you have a Week 9 build? (I know that I've called and confirmed my Week #, so that is information they have that you don't when checking online...) Alternatively, you could ask your dealer for a new copy of the Vehicle Inquiry, as that will have it as well.

Good luck!

Oh sorry! Yes I do have actually 2 production numbers. I'm having 2 cars built at different dealerships and they both had the same build week. Both are showing the exact same process. The dealer is seeing the same as me. Just weird that if you order a 40i then your build week is the time your car is done. But if it's a M50i it seems depending on the options it can be done whenever they want. 🤷🏽*♀️
