G05 Dispatched from factory!
My order just changed status to dispatched from factory. Says it is on the way to the dealership. Appears they are releasing them.

congrats! Any ETA on when it will get to your hands?
Media embargo is OCt 01 and I am aching to see some real world impressions and reviews out there. Looking forward to hearing your impressions and pictures How did you configure your build? [interested in how it rides] |

Anyone know how to translate a production number into build week? I have a production number, and was advised mine would be built some time in Nov. Would like to dial that in a little better.

At least that's how it's worked each time I've ordered. It's a pretty basic aspect of the process... again, based on my personal experience.

I have one that was released to the carriers as well. Weird that BMW is not using its typical carrier for X5. It was a week 36 build.

Forgot to add... FWIW
As it was explained to me by a CA (not mine), when a build/allocation flips to Customer Sold status 150, (typically at the point when you put down your deposit), there is a possibility that your production slot will be moved forward.

UPDATE: BMW is moving the cars out of SC and onto the regional VPCs to clear space in SC. They are still on release hold and dealer training will start later this month.

I saw two semis with new X5s on I-26 last Saturday. They are definitely shipping them.

Don’t disagree with what you are saying. If true, BMW might as well just dump the build tracker. This is like watching the Dominos pizza tracker and it says the Chet is delivering your pizza. Well actually he is stopping some where for a few days and will eventually get you your pizza.

It is just for the pre release period. The trainers have their cars now and dealer training will start soon.

I saw a new black G05 in Long Beach today. Only caught it for a second because it had turned down a different street. Back end looked better in person than in the pictures. Or maybe it was just the black color.

The regional trainers will grab their cars this week so yo may see those near your store. Ask your CA when the car will be at you local dealer.

Like I mentioned earlier BMW shipped these cars to the "port" or VPC to make room at the factory.
