I have an x3 M40i that has been sitting at "scheduled for production". According to BMW Genius, the build week is 50. When can I expect the car to enter production status? Any others with an x3 build week 50?

[CFonAir]

Interesting. I have one that I'm told should be done "the second week of December." I didn't get a build week from BMW Genius, but that sounds an awful lot like "week 50" to me.

Mine has been "in production" for a week or longer.

I don't think "in production" means anything except they've locked your options.

I had a week 49 build, was told it would be 12/5-12/11. Currently the car has been built and waiting for carrier assignment. Called Genius yesterday to ask about any deletions. Was told the only thing missing was digital key and passenger lumbar, was told car should be shipped 12/1 arriving @ dealer 12/4

Thanks CFonAir. Has your status changed from 112 to 150?

I was told mine is week 49 and my status is currently 150.

Yes.

I don't actually know how long it's been status 150. My '19 X3 m40i was in a wreck a few weeks ago, and totaled by insurance last week. My dealer found what I was looking for in another dealer's allocation, and we were able to get it. So I kind of took over an existing order, and it was "150" already when we did.

I don't know if it went to "150" last week, or if it's been there for a while, but I'm told it should be completed the second week of December.

I have 49 build week too, and the one week ago I got 150 status. I hope that week 50 cars should get 150 status today or tomorrow.

I have a week 50 M40i build and it’s still “Scheduled for Production” as of now on the mybmw garage.

[drjoe66]

I am week 49 and its has been on 150 for over a week now.

Where did you get your build week information from? Mine went into production today.

If you're week 50, that would track consistently.

I *think* I'm 49, and have been in 150 for more than a week. The Genius thought it should be completed next week, which would track with the recent experiences shared here; status 150 about two weeks before completion.

[H4RV311]

Mine just switched to “Production Begins” and nothing was deleted from the tracking site that I can see. HK is still showing on this list.

[kolobok]

My dealer said that I *should* get my car _this month_. I don't know the exact status at this moment (week 49 assigned). Will see...

[H4RV311]

Mine is a week 50 according to the genius so yours should be at least 150 status. I think “production begins” is status 150 where it all gets locked in but I’m not positive on that. Are you able to track yours through BMW garage site?

[kolobok]

Online tracking is available only for US customers.

For others it looks like a dealer phone tracker every week at least:
- WTF, where is my car or what is the status?
- I need to check the internal system, I'll call you, your call in very important for us.
Or something like this.

I called genius yesterday, my car is a week 50 build so should start production week of 12/12. Current status is 112

In the UK we can use BMW UK website "Live Chat" to ask the BMW Genius Team for a status update using the order number.

Much easier than trying to get info over the phone from a dealer.

Are you sure about that date? My CA sent me a chart showing the dates for each production week and they were as follows:

Week 49: 11/28-12/4
Week 50: 12/5-12/11
Week 51: 12/12-12/18
Week 52: 12/19- 12/25
Week 53: 12/26-12/31

[CFonAir]

That looks like week 51 to me.

Funnily enough...I just checked my status page and my car is now "in production" with VIN assigned. But yes that was what the genius said when I talked to him last night

[H4RV311]

The genius also told me that week 50 was Dec 13.
