I finally got around to ordering an X3 on April 9th and was given a production time of late May. Was very surprised when I called the tracking number today to be informed my car is in production with schedule production completion of April 30. I did order with everything, so perhaps that has helped given the reported delays for orders without certain options. Am waiting on confirmation from dealer as well....

Can you give me the number you call to check on it? I have the website, but not the number. Is it just BMWNA's customer service #?

You can call them at 1 800 831 1117. the system is automated and you just need your production number or VIN.. good luck, waiting is the hard part :-)

Same thing with us. I don't think the options have anything to do with it since their production line tells them what to install car by car. Our car was made 3 weeks early and sat their until our SC pickup appointment (which is the current bottleneck). From what I saw, the production line is loafing. They only work two shifts, 5 days a week and don't even kill themselves then (which is good).

I've all but given up my plans for collection from PDC. I was offered just one day at the end of May, and I just couldn't make it work. On the plus side, I get my new X3 much much sooner.

So why the delay in Europe? Is it just the logistics? Not enough ships to send all the cars east I guess.
