Hey everyone,

Hope you guys are doing well.

Looks like I skipped over "Exterior body assembly begins" straight into the paint booth!!! Woohoo!!

Hope you guys are making progress too. And like JackieChiles said, I see one Wallenius Wilhelmsen vessel leaving Oct 4 and hitting SC on Oct 27. Another one leaving Oct 17 and hitting SC on Nov 8. Not too knowledgeable on tracking these boats but who knows lol.

My build date is 9/29/23, so Frosty, your 9/25 build date makes it much more likely that you will make it aboard the Don Pasquale!

Fingers crossed for you, my friend!!

This might be my ship. My port is Baltimore so I won't be leaving until 12 Oct
But I'll get there a day earlier than your ship... weird.

“Entering Assembly Line”

Fingers crossed you guys are making progress too. Hope everyone has a nice weekend!!

Mine hasn’t moved at all. Wonder if that’s because I’m 9/29. Currently still sitting at production begins. Wonder if it’s also because of my piano black trim.

[boostednorm]

I’m still 150 as well and my production date is the 27th.

I just got off the phone with customer relations and they did tell me i’m a week ahead of schedule but still Production Week 39. As far as delays, they told me everything is moving smooth from what they could tell.
Hope that helps!!

I'm a week in front of you. While already at status 150, my build date changed from 9/21 to 9/22. Sure enough that's the date I hit.

9/17 - Status 150, Build date changed to 9/22
9/19 - Status 151 - Exterior Body Assembly Begins
9/20 - Status 152 - In the Paint Booth
9/21 - Status 153 - Entering Production Line.
9/21 - Status 154 - Assembly in Progress
9/21 - Status 155 - Quality Check
9/22 - Status 176 (?) - Final Assembly
9/22 - Status 180 (?) - Ready For Transport
9/22 - Status 182 - Awaiting Carrier Assignment


So based on this, your car should go Status 151 on Tuesday next week.

Wow, once it goes to 151 it zooms along! Congrats!

Just saw this in another thread. Very clear Virtual pictures and video's of your build.

Add the rest of your VIN after the WBS

Yeah you can see mine above from when I got my VIN. Love this from BMW. Also used it when shopping around dealers to check out what they had on the lot.

[boostednorm]

Finally. Status Code 151.

[boostednorm]

Wow, now I'm 152!

Dakota: I think you have the wrong sub-forum. Our M3s and M4s are all built in Germany.

[Frosty_M4]

Update: 9/25

Additional Vehicle Details
Status Code: 155

Status Description: Quality check
We're doing our last checks to make sure your BMW is just right.

[elbringuii]

Let’s go week 39

[boostednorm]

What mods have you all already purchased or plan on getting? I've order tires/wheels for winter, a small carbon fiber piece for above the drivers side vent, the M4 Competition control panel nameplate, sto-n-go license plate holder, and pressure washer and assorted car washing paraphernalia. Will probably buy the BMW winter floor mats as well.

I think that's all I'll need until I get the itch for more power. Then probably just jb4 instead of the femto DMU unlock so I can still keep getting OTA updates.

Constantly checking tracking. We'll see if I make progress tomorrow.

[Jackie Chiles]

My 9/29/23 build is still at 150.

The rest of you Week 39 peeps should be moving into actual production (150+) today and early tomorrow.

Fingers crossed that we make it to port next week! Some of us may even be on a boat by then.

[BLVCKBURN]

Yeah no progress so far today. Lets hope we see something by this week. Still wondering if my piano black trim is going to get me pushed back.
