Wow, congrats, that is a fast turnaround indeed. Not sure when I'll get mine but at the very least within 3-4 weeks, hopefully sooner. Let us know if you get those 309's!

Ha ha.

Funny thing is, last night I had gone to bed and I forgot I had the website open with my X3 video on it... after a while my computer shuts down and goes to sleep. But last night my computer did a windows update in the middle of the night and it refreshed that My BMW site after the updates and all of a sudden at 3:30am I hear really loud in the next room... CONGRADULATIONS ON YOUR ALL NEW BMW X3.... woke me right up and kind of scared the hell outta me at first till I realized what it was... my new baby waking me up in the middle of the night!!

Anyway, the good news today is I called the 800 number and spoke to a guy that told me my X3 shipped out today on Norfolk Rail, so now I'm really getting excited!! Should be here in a week or so I hope!

Sabian, how did you copy the still pic? I paused my video and wanted to do that but right clicking didn't give me the option.

Hey WTT, First I downloaded the video from bmw usa onto my computer, for me I downloaded the windows media version and paused it at the place I wanted to take the screen capture.

if you are using Windows... alt-printscreen to capture the image... then I cropped out the vin and info in the bottom out with photoshop and saved it as a jpg to upload.

I can't remember for Apple there is a a way, opt-printscreen? forgot. sorry.

Hope this helps?

Ha ha, yeah that's my cash back rebate!

Actually I have no idea what that is... I kind of noticed that but also I noticed the hood looks open but I guess that's normal at this stage?

I believe that is just there to protect the emblem. Thanks for the heads up on the photo! I'll give it a shot
