Haha. I'm joking.

A few days ago, I read the "new 2020 X3M/X4M" forum that introduced the colors....sooooo many haters about the SPYellow. And I've already had comments from family. So, I'm just running WITH it.

And the self-deprecating jokes are only beginning.

My production date is 6/30, so does that mean my build will *theoretically* enter the assembly line today?

I know the prod date and build tracker aren't always accurate. BMW is going to think I'm trying a DDoS attack with how many times I'm refreshing!

For many of BMW's vehicles (and probably other brands/marques), when a vehicle is manufactured, they will take tires from the supply lane and mount them to the wheels.

These supply lanes have variable suppliers, and have to do with contracting, availability, diversification, and other factors. Consumers generally cannot predict it. People have tried to find patterns or combinations that would give an idea, but I've seen those predictions to be no more valid than looking at a horoscope. So... "lottery." You get what you get. For almost all of us, if we receive a tire brand we don't like, we burn them down and then swap out with more desirable shoes. Others won't drive a mile on what they received.

My Toronto Red Metallic X4MC (Scarlett) has been delivered to the dealership at BMW of Ridgefield (Connecticut)

I lost the tire lottery, but I plan to have Michelin PS4S tires on it before I drive it. It will be transported by enclosed carrier to Detailer's Domain for 20% Ceramic tinting of the front side windows (to match back side windows), color correction, PPF, and ceramic coating of the car, three sets of rims (892Ms on car and a set of 765Ms for Pirelli Scorpion winter tires, and a set of 20" Black 764Ms because I love Black rims), and the Red Brake Callipers ��

"Scarlett," a 2022 BMW Toronto Red Metallic X4MC was delivered yesterday at BMW of Ridgefield in Connecticut by the absolute best Client Advisor (CA), Dan Purnick

She will be transported on 7/5 by McCollister's Transportation in an enclosed carrier to Detailer's Domain in NJ where she will receive paint correction, PPF, ceramic coating, and new Michelin PS4S tires (I lost the tire lottery) until at least Friday. Only then will I get to actually drive my new car

DDoS...even though I know it is Saturday, and a US Federal Holiday on Monday, and NOBODY is working inside the factory...I've still clicked on the tracker site a few times today....because, maybe, possibly, sorta, someone inside will say "That guy really wants this car, so everybody, come back in this evening and build it!"

- Not -

hahaha.

Wowzerz! Looks great!

Would like to see a photo from the rear -- wondering how the smokey-ish taillamps look against Scarlett's red paint. Do they color-match with the window tint in the back window, too?

The transition is already occurring.

In late June, I was told that I'd have a 2023 in August. But last week, someone changed their purchase decision, and that allocation was given to me, after it had already gone into "Production" (bonus start!), with my calculations of seeing it arrive at the dealership on 22 July. So, I'd guess they are still manufacturing 2022's through the month of July, but only taking orders for 2023's at this point. We'll watch and see whom posts here over the next few days to see what's happening.

My build status changed from last night to Assembly in Progress. Talked my CA this afternoon and thinks this week may be pushing it to get it delivered. The scheduled production is July 12 but at this pace it will be done next week (assuming the factory is not shut down all week). So I am hopeful for delivery the week of July 11. That would take it to 4 months from my 1st phone call to delivery.

It has been a long couple months with the M4. Can’t wait to get back to a M car.
