Zoomin' along now

Right behind you. Things are moving right along.
Probably time to start worrying about shipping schedules!

And snow tires!

Haha, yeah man. No kiddin'.

I really need it here before end of August, fingers crossed that is the case.

As mentioned earlier in the thread, I did a pre-trade so I have 9 months to use my credit, otherwise I lose out on tax savings.

jummo · 06-09-2022, 03:29 PM

Being in Colorado, with a Port Hueneme landing, early August would be the best I could hope for.
This is the 9th BMW we have ordered and is definitely taking a lot longer and with more schedule changes than all the others combined.
In the past it has been a very reliable 8-10 weeks, in contrast to 8-10 months.
And we're the lucky ones whose cars are actually getting built.
Right now!

Me too. I'm pretty sure they took a little extra time with my paint.

I have to admit it is pretty good sport to be going through this with
the rest of you.

mrs jummo has been patient, but she doesn't need as many updates.

I look forward to the time when we can post pictures of the cars in our driveways!

Absolutely! Deff have enjoyed going through this with all of the other guys here, haha. It's kept me sane waiting.

Yes, kumbaya!

Now, on a more serious note. I've been stuck on " entering assembly " for two days. I'm inclined to think it's just a lack of updates, rather than a lack of progress.

My production date is tomorrow, so I assume it's moving along.
Anyone else showing progress?

My production date is Wednesday the 15th and I have yet to move beyond 150. I'm expecting to hit exterior body assembly tomorrow based on what I've seen from the experience of others around here. Things move quickly in the days before production date. I'd say you're perfectly on track to finish up tomorrow

I've been at "Assembly in Progress" since Friday night, which is understandable because of the weekend. My production date is tomorrow, and I am expecting the car to be completed by tomorrow. It would be very cool if BMW sends pictures of your car being assembled in the future like Porsche.

RideFAST · 06-13-2022, 06:20 AM

Just hit exterior body assembly as expected

jummo · 06-13-2022, 08:41 AM

Quality check!

Should be done today.

RideFAST · 06-13-2022, 10:45 AM

In the paint booth

that seemed quick!

jummo · 06-13-2022, 01:47 PM

I am now ready for transport!
Jumped ahead several steps already today.

Of course, then I join the Status 193 club, they seem like a miserable lot.
