To track goto BMW's website. Click on My BMW and create an account.

Click on Add/Remove Vehicles and add the production# of your vehicle that should have been given to you by your CA.

You can then click on Track my BMW.
Yeah, I think it was luck, or that my dealer had this slot open for a while and didn't have any takers. They sounded kind of surprised as well actually. Either way, it's on the line somewhere and I can't wait.

Where are you guys seeing these status #'s, like "152"?

My tracking only shows, "Start", "01", "02", "03", "Finish".
I'm in "01 - Production Begins" phase.

Your CA can give you the exact status of your vehicle (i.e 152). They can track its every move until it is released to the carrier.

I received an email with my build video today. They show a video of the car appearing to be mostly build, rolling on the tires.

Does that mean it's mostly complete or is it stock footage? This came 1-2 weeks earlier than I expected. Status is still, "in production".

The build process takes less than 2 days, 40 hours if my video is correct. If you've got your video then yes, that was your X3, and yes, it's done. Call your CA and ask him/her to check the status. Your CA has access to more timely information than the website displays.

My CA just confirmed that their system shows my 2012 as complete!

He thinks he could arrive as early as this Friday!!

Dukat check back this afternoon and again tomorrow - your build video may show up before the website says your X3 is complete. I bet you take delivery no later than monday if not sooner....and you have a build video posted sooner than that

Have you received your VIN numbers? According to the VIN decoder table that can be found here:

http://www.bmwblog.com/2009/07/14/ho...d-to-delivery/

digit number ten is supposed to be the Model Year Identifier. So according to the guide that digit should have been a B if itīs a 2011 and a C if itīs a 2012. My VIN number shows a 0 (zero) as digit number ten..

Have they changed the structure or variables of the VIN or am I reading something wrong. What do you have as digit number ten in your VIN?

I currently have status 165 on my car (transfer from USA to Bremerhaven), and as written in a previous post I have to call my dealer to get that status. There is no online tracking here in Europe.

My dumb ass decided to do the PDC so now even though my car is done (I have my video) I have to wait until the end of October.

Sigh hope it's worth it

I had to wait too, but not as long. In my opinion, it was definitely worth the wait.

the first place i saw my VIN # was the video.

as for PDC I couldn't wait, didn't really want to drive back from SC anyway. I did European Delivery on a Benz w/ a family member in 2000 - much more exciting when there is Autobahn involved.

the fact that SWA started flying to greenville-spartansburg SC right after X3's started rolling off the line early this year must come in handy for those who do PDC on an X though.
