Tracking my 2020 G05 X5 40i!

I’m super excited to share that my car has flipped to “Production Begins” and I have a VIN!

Here’s my build:

2020 X5 xDrive40i xLine
Arctic Grey Metallic
20" V-spoke wheels, style 738 with all-season run-flat tires
Coffee Extended Merino Leather
Fineline Stripe Brown High Gloss Wood trim

Options
Driving Assistance Professional Package
Executive Package
Luxury Seating Package
Integral Active Steering
2-axle air suspension
Acoustic glass
Leather Dash
Anthracite Alcantara Headliner
Front and Rear Heated Seats
Glass Controls
Heated Front Seats Armrests & Steering Wheel
Harman Kardon surround sound system
Space-saver spare

I’ll add to this as the car advances through production as I get closer to PCD:

12/9: Order Placed
1/10: Allocation received & “Scheduled for Production” for Week 7
1/13: “Production Started” & VIN received (EST. Completion date 1/27). ECD moved up to 1/24 a week later.
1/23: Jumped to “Entering Assembly Line” then “Quality Check” later in the day
1/25: “Awaiting Carrier Assignment”

Nice! What's your build?

Did your dealer say when they expect an allocation? Hopefully you get it soon...there seemed to be a bit of a backlog (perhaps due to the holidays?) as several members including me were waiting on an allocation.

It feels like an eternity when you're waiting --- the good news is there's more waiting once you get the allocation, haha.

The dealer is Fields in Asheville, NC. The word is they are "expecting it any day", so I'll just have to wait and see. Here's the build, nothing dramatic.

Aluminum Dark Mesh Interior Trim

I saw this and it looked all too familiar. I promised myself I wouldn't, but you very accurately explained what I've been doing the past 24 hours LOL

The earliest PCD I could do was Feb 19 but I picked Feb 21 so I could do a Friday. Looking forward to hearing about your experience and seeing pictures!

Yep, just refresh it, connection is sometimes off

Notes: I've done a few builds, the site is sometimes off by day(s) not sure what the benefit is besides a little excitement seeing the stages completed, I don't really care if it's up the the day accurate

I just checked mine and it also shows 1/18 production date which I assume is date production begins as garage still has car in “production begins”.

I’m going to check if I can access manual.

No manual yet.

Mine shows production date of January 18th on M Decoder, the My Garage still shows "Production Begins" phase, the automated line says production completion is estimated to be January 27th, and I'm not able to download an owner's manual yet.
