Build Week 34 Discussion

Car went from 111 to 112 overnight. Genius is telling me build week 34, which would be the last week of August. I've read that the build week is actually when the car finishes production, but the Genius (on 2 separate occasions) is telling me that's when production starts.

When should we expect week 34 to hit the US? End of September with a mid-October delivery? Is that too optomistic?

same week 34 here.
I think build week is actually when the car finishes production.
I was told expect delivery to be late-October or early-November as for Asia market.

Yeah, I flipped to Scheduled for Production over a week ago. I called today and they again confirmed build week 34. I assumed that meant when it goes into production, but I have no information to confirm/deny that.

Not I, but I'm individual color... it seems they are making all us individual colors wait.

Mine just went into production begins as well. I called Genius and they said production completion date of Aug 23rd which would still be Week 34 technically.

That seems abnormally long - almost a month for production?

That's what I thought so too - at this point I take the Genius updates with a grain of salt since I've moved around so much...

I do not. I called and she said she didn't have that data, and that custom colors can take longer.

That said though, she was having systems issues, and even had to ask someone else to confirm the color. I'll call back tomorrow during more regular hours and see if I can get a better update.

Aaah gotcha. My car just went into "Exterior Body Assembly Begins"...not sure what build week that makes my car but the completion date according to the automated service is still August 23rd (Week 34).

I put a deposit down on a car that looks to be in build week 34, it's been in "quality check" for a few days now. The dealer sent me a screenshot that shows the actual number code status (currently 155), is there any way to get that off the website or do you have to speak to someone at genius?

Are you asking what does code 155 mean? If so, there is a Sticky Thread "BIMMERPOST Guide to Ordering and Tracking your BMW". The first post in that thread shows all the codes/statuses and their meanings.

FYI - 155 means production completed.

I've been stuck in the paint booth for over a week

Yeah I read through that thread, just wondering if there was a way to get the actual numeric status codes from the build tracking website/genius.
