I’ve come to conclusion MyGarage is at least a day late updating so our vehicles could already be in transit. I have no idea of transit time to West Coast but would be neat if you could track progress to your dealership.

Your patience will be rewarded.
Congrats! I was totally fine and patient through the build process and now I’m losing it. Hah! My vehicle was apparently shipped (going to Denver) on Tuesday and still not at dealership. Dealer says it can be frustrating as he can track it but but there is no set date.

If your MyGarage states the vehicle is awaiting shipment but actually shipped last Tuesday that would indicate the site can be several days late updating. That’s good news.

Question is what do we do with this forum after we take delivery? No more cars to track or commiserate with others on production status. Do I want to read about others problems, especially the techie kind, where I would be afraid of doing something that renders my car useless? Or read about all the cool new features available on the ‘21 models and 35% discounts everyone else is getting just walking into the dealerships? I figure I’ll stay at least a couple months and make a decision this summer.

Well to make it even more confusing as of two days ago , my website tracker says “at the dealership“ ! That should tell you just how reliable the website tracker is - my dealer says it switches over after it’s “dispatched from the factory” three days later to “at the dealership”. I think that’s the worst part - I got excited when it said that , but it wasn’t true!

I will definitely be back after I take delivery because I intend to do at least some minor tuning a year or two in

Now it says "Dispatched From Factory"! My ECD was supposed to be today (1/25) per the Genius hotline and so far all the updates on MyGarage have been consistent with that date. But other members (like the two posts right before me) have noticed inconsistencies. Whether it's broken or not, it's given us all something small to look forward to each day, and for that I'm happy. It made this process more fun!

Well, you’re right about that! Unless yours still says “final assembly”, and you know its somewhere on a truck!

Any west coast members out there? How long in your experience does it take for the car to arrive to the dealership after it has been "Dispatched from Factory"? Thanks in advance!

I'm curious how they get from SC to West Coast, truck, train, boat?

I'd really like to know that myself, especially since it now says "At The Port." Not sure if it's still in the east coast or if it's here in California now (and if it's the latter, how it got here?)

Just called BMW NA and they advised it's in transit from the SC VPC to the Oxnard VPC with an estimated arrival date of 2/7. From there, it will make its way to our dealership within a few days. So hoping for a mid-February delivery!
