Production Video

I ordered a X3 35i M-Sport package. I just got my production video. However, it was a little disappointing to see "Live Camera is not available" as my car drove under it's own power. Who else had this happen to them? I remember seeing someone else who had a X3 35i M-Sport package had this happen to them.

My video had the same issue. Mine is a 35 but not a M. I have seen videos with other camara views out besides the drive away one.
Let's hope BMW doesn't make the camara's for the video feed!

Luckily for me the one video camera that worked was the one where it drives off under it's own power... the one before it where if first touches the ground was out as well as about half the others. A bit dissapointing especially while you are waiting and when you want to send it to friends and have to explain which ones are your actual car...

My video had a couple of cameras out as well. No big deal as the car in real life has zero issues so far.

Happened to me too. However, the camera was on for the part where they "mate" the body to the drivetrain by lowering the body and raising the drivetrain. The music swelled and the announcer softly intoned that this part of the production process was unique to BMW. Borderline pornographic!!! Much better than a video clip of the car driving away under its own power.

Three of the live cameras were "unavailable" as my car made the trip down the line. Hopefully, the back up camera in my car will prove more reliable.
