That's great news chrischappers. Are you in lockdown? Are you able to do a proper pickup?

I'm on NSW Central Coast, so currently in lockdown. The dealership is within the same LGA so can pickup but not sure how in depth the pick up will be. Thinking they will probably just throw me the key LOL.

How about you?

I'm in the hills district. While we are not considered an LGA of concern it is difficult to travel to other LGA's without a permit. I will most probably do a 'click and collect'.

Also, just received an email from the dealership. My M3 will arrive at the dealers this Friday and possibly ready for pickup the middle of next week

Thats great news. I checked Prixcar again, and looks like mine is ETA at the dealership tomorrow (Thursday 16th) now.


Btw, did your dealership mention anything about the camera issue? I spoke to my guy about it and he had heard nothing of it - they'd had some MINI's arrive which needed replacement parts but no BMWs. For those MINI's they had the parts within a week and it wasn't a major drama. However keeping everything crossed that the camera thing is a furphy in this case.

They haven't mentioned anything. Not even about the wireless charger. I guess I will find out next week.

Have you used your VIN or chassis number to check transport booking status with Prixcar?

http://trackyourcar.prixcar.com.au/

I'm still waiting for arrival at Dealer.
Thanks chrischappers , my car is being delivered to the dealership tomorrow 😅. Then hopefully a 48hr turn around for delivery 🥳

Just put your VIN into this website: https://www.recall.bmw.com.au and you will soon see if you have the camera issue. I certainly do and it seems most of us do. Here's hoping you don't !

Just got confirmation that my car will arrive to the dealership on Friday and will delivered to me mid next week. My dealership is in an LGA of concern but im based in the upper north shore Sydney so having it delivered is my only option. Then its off to Tinthaus the next day for PPF install which will take about a week.

Hi Everyone,

Had an email from my dealership this morning.

"Unfortunately Prixcar were holding the vehicle due to a stop delivery campaign relating to the program control unit & cameras. BMW have advised they would not deliver vehicles with these campaigns until they had completed them at Prixcar workshop. This has since changed and they are releasing the vehicles for the dealers to complete."

Keeping everything crossed all OK with my car, and no further wait. Hoping for the same for all you guys as well.

According to Prixcar mine should get to my dealer today.

Delivery confirmed for Thursday next week, car will be transported to my home with a Facetime handover. Seriously can't wait, feel's like forever since driving these at the Eastern Creek launch day back in March.

Also my dealers confirmed no change in original spec, even wireless charger so will be interesting to see what eventuates.

Noticed that @chrischappers and @Hanibal74 are not far from where i am, wondering when i'll see your cars on the old Pacific Hwy?

I've been asked to come in on Thursday but trying to get a pickup on Wednesday so we shall see.

I will probably do a few trips up through putty rd heading north in the not too distant future. If we ever get out of this lockdown.

I’m booked for collection on Thursday 23rd - can’t wait. Car arrived at dealership on Thursday last week. Rear camera was not installed, but had already been ordered and was fitted Friday. So pleased that hasn’t caused any delay.

Sale guy shared some pics of the car.

Looks great. You were lucky that your dealership was on the ball and had the parts ready to go.

Congrats! Kyalami orange buckets are so hot!! Can't wait to see it in person.
Mine arrived at PrixCar Kembla on 4th September as yours. But I haven't heard any update since then from PrixCar. Check with the dealer, car status stays at (240)Delivery requested/approved.
