Talking Making the switch from F82 to F98

Ok done deal, order placed. Build specs are below.
Goes into production Week 41 so I still have a bit of time to tweak the build if needed

I'm switching from an M4 to X4MC. Try this out for a bit until the next gen M4 is out.
I drove it for a weekend and was impressed with the power and handling. Looking forward to getting this new beast!

Congrats! Build Spec looks unreal! Just put my order in over the weekend (I guess will be finalized early this week) and I am told mid December it could be delivered. I ordered a base X3M with only M sport exhaust so I am wondering if yours may take longer as it seems to be a fully optioned competition model? How has the dealer been communicating with you regarding the status of your build? Weekly, every other week, etc.

Congrats on the X3M. No difference in build times. Nothing on my build is individual or special that requires extra time.

My dealer is fantastic. I have long standing relationship with them. They know me well enough to know how to communicate. I don't want weekly updates nor do I care for them.

I get notified when key milestone are hit, like build starting, in transit, arrival etc... if I cared for weekly or daily or heck hourly updates they would provide it

So from start to finish you would say the two month period seems pretty standard/accurate? Thanks for the help!

Yeah that's accurate ~8 weeks to the GTA. This could be shorter or longer depending on when your build is scheduled for, priority of the vehicle etc... many factors. But estimate 8 weeks from your production week.

You can also call BMW Canada @ +1 (800) 567-2691

Get your production number or the last 7 digits of the vin from your dealer and you can all the above to get a status update on demand.
