he works over on the X5 side. he can only pull up and check status he doesn't have any power to do anything. But i must say when i toured the plant most of the cars were white so when they finally do hit the line everyone will be happy to work on a car that isn't white or black! I must admit I'm happy i didn't end up doing a european delivery I don't think I could wait that long! the trip would have been nice but then the waiting for the car to come back after you leave that would have been torture!

My car exists!!! now i just have to wait for it to get delivered to the dealer and all the fun loan stuff. I wish I could just drive up to the plant and pick it up. According to my brother it's loaded up on a truck with a Saturday delivery at the dealership. My guess is I'll prob have it Tuesday. It seems to be common from what i can see that the dealer needs a day or two before they are ready to "sell" it. hopefully my next post I'll have pictures for everyone!!!
order placed 1/26 production start date 2/11 production complete 2/18 it was supposed to be completed on 2/17 according to the 800 number you call to check production status, I know bmw cancelled a shift due to the weather. we had a few hours of ice and all the roads were iced over. it's all melted now Last edited by Manicureaddict; 02-19-2015 at 12:55 PM.. |

Picked her up on Tuesday!!!
We generally don't get any snow here in SC but just my luck we got some right after i got the new car. Husband was excited said the AWD will come in use.. When i was closing on the car the sales man came in and said they noticed a scratch on the wood trim in the center and that they already ordered a replacement. If he didn't say something to me I don't think I'd even notice. He's having me come back in a week to see if i have any questions on how to operate the car and said they'll wash her for me, which will be great since all of this yucky weather has got her dirty already!! buying mats from weather tech is on my list since the carpet mats show every bit of dirt , hopefully the rubber mats will cut down on that. wishful thinking From placing the order to driving off was exactly 4 weeks. Beyond excited and so far we are really enjoying driving around in our new baby! |

Beautiful car, pic's look super. How did you get that massive snow flake on your hood?
Nice of dealer to offer follow up. Just a caution, I always refuse the car wash, as my dealer has automatic wash and I have heard of two bad wash/scratch from dealer. |

the snowflake on the hood was a major surprise I still don't really know why it happened one of my brothers said there must be some kind of metal bracing under the hood in that shape. I don't always understand science.
I am happy with the wood trim, in person it tends to seem more blackish than brown so I'm happy that it's not as brown as i thought it would be, in photos the brown comes out more but overall it's got a great look. i have a tag I'll be transferring but i ran into some dmw issues and I'm waiting for them to clear up before I put the tag on the car. they wanted to charge me a fine for not having insurance on the car I sold after I already sold it.... In SC we have 45 days to register a car, so that's where the 4-10 date came from... haha no way I'm giving back this car!! good point about the free car wash I'll have to keep that in mind, We have a really good car wash up the road and they do an outstanding job, plus my father in law told me he bought up like a 20 car wash package said I can use some of them. |
