Hey, thanks everyone! Really looking forward to finally getting the X3 after all this time. I remember looking that the images and videos last summer and drooling, now it's finally a reality. This site has been an invaluable resource for learning all about the new X3.

BIMMER UK 76! Yes the oyster leather looks great in your pics you posted. it was one of the things that helped me decide, thanks!

Hope there are no delays... CA told me there are only delays if you don't get the nav for some reason. I should be able to look up the progress by next week

My video is up but unfornunately most of the cameras were temorarily unavalable

...but at least the part at the end where they say it drives off under it's own power for the first time worked

I remember seeing the first spy pics and info about a year ago and after researching, waiting all this time, and finally deciding on the X3, it's now a reality.

Next stop my driveway!

Yep wheels look right, no mix up as far as I can tell... but it kind of scared me when I first saw my X3 was blue but then noticed the camera was out of service. Not that there's anything wrong with blue though, I think the X3 looks good in about every color I've seen, just was more worried about a screw up in the order. Hopefully you will get the 309's without charge if they messed up your order and it doesn't turn into a hastle for you. goodluck!

I won't let it be a hassle! I'm going to make sure this comes out in my favor! Worst thing that can happen is they'll have to switch out the tires/rims. It'll be interesting to see if they are on the sticker.

Well now that my X3 is done, I emailed my CA to tell him my vehicle was finished and to try and get an estimate on when it would arrive. His response was something like... "I don't know, probably in another 3 to 4 weeks!"

I was hoping it would get here sooner after reading some of the other posts on delivery times, and also since it's already finished before I expected, but who knows maybe my CA is wrong but if not, that arrival would put it around the 2 month mark from order to delivery. Will have to wait and see but hopefully I'll get lucky and they'll ship it soon! Till then I'm just gonna be patient and drool over all the cool pics and videos everyone is posting

I called on mine today and it said it was released to the carrier for delivery! The day before it had said it was finished and was awaiting transportation. I think mine is on it's way! Dealer thinks it will be here Friday or Saturday at the latest!
