Hey Man, Good for you.
I was just notified via the website that mine is at the processing cener. It went on order for what seemed like forever to at the process center in a day. I also have a 28i Alpine White with Beige interior. Premium, Tech and Sports Activity along with heated seats and wheel with Sat radio.
I am hoping the next step isn't too long. One problem I have encountered is the video of my car's production. For three days I have been unable to view it because they are having difficulty with the program. Is this very common?
Well I hope I run into you on the Island or at a meet if you will doing that. Once again Best of Luck with your new BMW!

I had the same problem with my video and it started working after a few days. So there is hope.

Thanks for the dates, sure it will helpful for others. My car is at the prep center, presumably in nj since I am in ct. I'm actually hoping it takes a few days for it to show up at my dealer since I am still waiting on the bank to mail me the title of the car I'm trading in to show up. Would kill me to have the car at the dealer ready for pickup and me not being able to....

Exclamation mine is being built on the distant planet of Krypton

Hi my car is being built on the far distant galaxy of Krypton.. I ordered via Superman, but it is spiderman who is in the process of building the actual car.. Apparently because I ordered a standard X3 it is being manufactured in Krypton.. I did ask if I could add the sun protection glass to my order but unfortunately it would delay the order til 2020 so i decided against it..

Haha nice. You and me will be the only 2 Alpine White X3's on the Island. If I ever see one I will know it's you.

Beautiful. I can't believe how quickly that happened for you although I did hear 28's are easier to come by than 35's since the 35's motor is used on so many other vehicles. Congrats. Love AW, mine's in transit.

Congratulations, unbelievable how fast your order was processed. I ordered mine on May 31st and it is not slated to start production until July 17th. The delivery date is expected to be around the first week of August. Which to some in other parts of the world is quick.. I am sure it will be worth the wait. Enjoy the beautiful color combination.

sigh...bmw website is such a tease. tracking says the car is "at your bmw center" but my dealer just emailed me back saying that he checked and it was not there. Probably for the better...still havent received the title for my old car from chase.

My timeline is pretty quick compared to everyone else though as well. Ordered on 6/21 (3.5i), and guessing it should show up to my dealer in the next day or two (CT).

Congrats - nice car - if it is as fast as his supply time to owner, you will travel near to the speed of light with it.

Are these wheels standard for the X3 in the U.S.? I think we do not have them in Germany.

Yes these are the base wheels for the 28i. I think everyone outside of the US will get the "Y" spoke wheels.
