I ordered my X5 mid November with many options plus Carbon Black with Tartufo interior and even though the sales person said it would take 8 weeks, plus they have given the production date of week 3..... the wait is killing me!!!!!.
Truly a first world problem... LooooL.... I will vent no more!!.

Try living in the UK...ordered mid July and delivery expected final week of December this year. Likewise though, the wait is tough. I ordered a 45e M sport, carbon black with coffee merino. Hopefully get some snow early Jan to test out the 4WD!

I'm expecting mine to be delivered on Thursday! Don't dare believe it is happening until it is delivered! Will update once it arrives!

The family think we are getting an X3! Can't wait to see their faces!

I think you and your family will be very, very well satisfied with the G05. It's a bigger space for a family and has so many many more options. Please do post pictures of you and yours in your new ride when its delivered to you.

I feel ya.. having been through that recently. They should have a count of how many times each customer refreshes "my garage" during production.

I entertained myself watching all YouTube videos on the 45e in my case, good and bad. Even some in languages I don't speak :P

Week 3 will come. Hang in there!

"my garage" is the top visited site on my browser. I know this because Apple widget displays top visited site. My wife hasn't stopped ribbing me about it. I imagine she will once she sits on the Merino.

Oh you're lucky. If we order a 45e now, it takes something between 6-8 month.
That was the reason why we bought a M50i.

I have been rewatching YouTube reviews for weeks now! Harry's garage at least three times - both reviews 😂

I keep checking my email today and this week for some bad news to tell me the car is not going to be dropped off ☹️

It has been in the UK for two weeks at BMW holding facility.

I have been lucky tho as the lease company i have gone though had preorder slots secured. Therefore although I didn't finalise until end of august the production was 10th October.

Can't wait for my X5 45e to be delivered 🤞🏽

Hahaha same here.
Ordered a 40i Carbon Black with almost every add on possible and have been watching YouTube videos, IG videos and pics for weeks.
I am at the point where I filter by creation date.
This forum is now on my most request visits too lol but I lurk more.

I ordered mid November and they told me end of December.
Got the 22” wheels with winter tires but I live in Montreal, only thing that worries me is how good can 22s be in our winters. But dealer says I’ll be fine.
Anyways not driving much these days lol...

[codex57]

Haha, mine is almost here. I waffle between "the wait being excruciating" and "needing more time" (for the PenFed $500).

I do the same. Sort by date added 🤣 glad to know I'm not too crazy! 👍🏽

I ordered the M50i with Premium Excellence package, with Air Suspension on 22's. Ordered 20" inch rims with Michelin Latitude LA2 from mechanic (dealer wanted 6k+ for winter package) I trust, tried to get Blizzak but they are completely sold out in Ontario.
Constantly looking at YouTube vids on BMW M50i, you get used to seeing "you viewed this page".... LooooooL.

[Finito84]

hahahaha been there checking my garage every day for updates on the status, and suddenly in a couple of days, it went from starting production to on the road for delivery. Usually, the BMW geniuses have an excellent knowledge of the timing and then, you never know if you might get better incentives waiting a little longer.

I have been enjoying my BMW X5 45e that last three weeks and I still feel super happy with my new toy. Just finished the driving manual, but I learnt even more from reading these posts.

Hope you do not have to wait much and enjoy your new car soon!

[Benztir]

That feeling of finding a video with what looks like the same build as your car only to find out it’s one of those waste of space dealership videos made up of pictures cycling one after another lol 😂

What a wonderful choice you've made on the engine. I took delivery of our M50i about three months ago. They had a $1500 discount on the winter wheel package which I took no hesitation to purchase. Plus, they were also running a $1000 rebate on the 6 year extended warranty by BMW Canada and an additional $1000 by the dealer itself. In total, I saved $2000 on the extended warranty.

The M50i is my wife's daily which I do not mind taking every once in a while for a joy ride. It have already raced quite a few American muscle cars. It is lovely to see their shocked faces when beaten by an SUV with no mercy (I do no endorse street racing). HAHAHAHA

Tomorrow is THE day!

I should be taking delivery of my X45e!

Can't hold the excitement in any longer!
