Maybe but it will still be production week 24 regardless when u turn status 150

The two BMWs I purchased were done being built quickly after 150. Hope yours is too.

U can just call Genius and ask them what production date you have and if that has changed from previous week 24.
That will give u the answer better then anyone here obviously.

You can also use the chrome plugin to see production week? Very curious if you were moved up or not (if not the rest of us can hope for 150 soon!)

Yea I have the plug in. It says status 112 doesn’t have week on the plug in. But I called few days ago and they said week 24.
I would LOVE to be moved up!!! But I doubt it.

Did you get a chance to confirm you are still week 24 (or you moved earlier)? Via genius or the website hack?

I haven’t and I just got to HHI. I won’t have access to a PC until next Saturday. If I have the opportunity this week, I will call the genuis and update the thread.

I agree that most likely I have been moved up to week 22.

Sick just confirmed in week 24 as well.

IOMG XDrive Standard Seats Standard breaks. Super pumped. when do you think these will come in? Late July or early August? This is what the dealer is claiming. I'm thinking more like October. Either way I'm pumped.

October sounds ridiculous, I would expect sometime in August, unless you miss more than 1, even if you don't get the first ride out of port it should still be late August.

kgelfen360 · 05-23-2023, 01:35 PM

I think early September. But also depends where you are located. I am on the west coast less ships and they take longer to get here.

Me too. I am nervous/excited at the same time. I'm a little worried I'm going to be bored in the M3. This is a second car and I do lots of weekend traveling with the wifey. I loved the GT4 but was a horrible highway car and I couldn't store my golf bag anywhere but the front seat. Not to mention the lack of lumbar support in the carbon buckets kicked my ass. I feel the M3 is going to be a nice balance.

Casone238 · 05-23-2023, 02:24 PM

I feel like I cheated the system. I inquired about the M3CX on the 18th got the allocation on the 20th and I’m in for a week 24 build 😅 I’m taking a PCD though. So I’m probably going to be one of the last ones to take delivery 😅

My build
M3CX
BSM / Fiona red full merino
Black 826M wheels
Red calipers
Carbon fiber trim
Executive
Parking assist
Drive recorder
Front vent seats
Laser lights + shadow lights
Carbon exterior package
Moonroof
Wireless charging

I have driven GT4s several times, and have driven all M2s/M3s except G80. I think if you want a car that will be a ton of fun to drive but still practical and won't cost a fortune, M3/M4 wins hands down. But interested to hear your experience.

Congratulations!!
I don’t think PCD takes any longer.

Thank you!
I heard it does due to they only have 4 slots available for delivery daily. I’ve been told it usually adds about 2 weeks to your delivery versus if you was going to the dealership.

I don't think that's right. I think there are 3 time windows in which you can be assigned the 3 activities: Delivery, Track, Offroad. Within each of those windows, maybe there's only 4 slots? So 12 per day?

I was told 8 total cars per day. 4 X series and 4 of the numbered series. I mean it make sense due to everything going on and they only have so many instructors. We will see my lease on the M340 ends Oct 1st. Ideally I would like to take delivery sometime in late September.
I ordered a X5 40i for my wife and she’s kinda jealous that it looks like I’m get my car before her. The X5 was pushed back to week 31 due to the climate comfort package. When we where originally quoted week 22 build. So to keep her happy I hope her X5 arrives before my M3 lol
