Not yet.

1117 9/8 Entering Assembly line. We have a body and paint!

So awesome!

Retta · 09-08-2022, 12:35 PM

The rig went to 153 in the last two hours. Assembly! It would be interesting to watch a video of my car going through.

The videos of the South Carolina plant are really cool. I just pretend that I am watching my actual build in progress.

X6 MC is at the dealer and ready for pick up tomorrow. Went into production 8/17

Shllshck · 09-08-2022, 08:16 PM

Already past paint, now in the assembly line.

thebeedubya · 09-08-2022, 10:33 PM

I'm with you guys. Been entering assembly line all afternoon.

All the speedy parts, the brains, and the pretty pieces are being put together perfectly. Ours will likely be in and then out of QC tomorrow.

redpanda25 · 09-08-2022, 10:52 PM

I don't think I am going to see progress tonight. I hope this does not turn into a hold up.

Hopefully not. You might fly through a few stages overnight. Seems QC is where some folks get held up for weeks.

thebeedubya · 09-09-2022, 05:32 AM

Woke up to waiting carrier assignment. Since it's headed to the PCD for my 13-Oct Delivery. Hopefully that won't take long. Now if anyone sings my doors!! Lol. Thanks every. I'll write up my PCD experience when we do it.

Retta · 09-09-2022, 05:48 AM

We are in QC code 155. I am calling Genius today to make sure nothing was left off. I am concerned about my parking distance control. They assured me it was all there on Tuesday, but this is Friday, lol. I am surprising my husband with this or I would be asking him everything. He's the BMW guy in the family.

EDIT: I was looking up the parking control assist and realized there are two things on the option code list. O842 says without parking distance control and the option code list includes an "active package" in the 0200s that includes active parking control. I did not know they were different.

Thanks TurtleBoy for correcting my typo. PCD, PCD....

Anyhow Oct 13 can't get here fast enough. I'll be in the Middle East for a week so that'll help burn some time. I wish I could move this up!

Yea! It will be cool to pick it up.
Read this and hear me whine. How did you get out of QC and I did not? I am scheduled for 9/9.
Lol.

thebeedubya · 09-10-2022, 09:35 AM

No idea. Sitting in carrier assignment. Not sure how soon after build do they take them over to the PCD. It'll be there almost a month before the wifey and I go pick it up
