PDC or Dealership?

Hey guys! Again, :P

I'm about to order a 2013 f25 28i fully loaded.
Is it going to take longer if I take the delivery at the dealership or at the Performance Center at Spartanburg?

What is the time difference?

Thanks a lot!

Your question is for the dealer, not for us. You have some questions to ask the dealer.

When is the dealer's allocation for a build week for your X3? When are slots available at the PDC? Is there a disconnect between the build week and a PDC slot? How long will it take to deliver the finished X3 from Spartanburg to your dealer?

The answers to those four questions should give you enough information to make a decision.

PC will probably take longer by maybe a couple weeks due to limited delivery slots.

Ahh, all I asked him earlier that if I were to order today, when can I take delivery?
He said by the end of April.


@Bren

I did PDC and I waited an extra two weeks but PDC was worth it in my opinion.

Exactly. Saw the title and thought, is this a real question? Definitely go PCD, PDC - park distance control is up to you. You've waited this long, what's another two weeks? PCD will be an experience to remember.

Just got back from PCD, this made our wait 3 weeks longer. Definitely worth it!!! Amazing experience from the minute you arrive.

Just put in an order for 13' 28i, schedule will be busy but just ask my awesome CA for an estimate timeline for pcd if I'm going that route, this is basically for my wife, I already got my toy.
