Just cross posting here from Week 40, was status 150 production begins (since Thursday 9/30) and told I would finish Friday 10/8.

Today I moved to 151 exterior assembly begins and now told build will finish Monday 10/11... that makes me Week 41 technically speaking.

I might be the first one in this thread to hit 151?

Same happened to me a few weeks ago. Bumped from 41 to 45, then back to 41 yesterday and got my VIN today!
Hope for the best for you!

Hopefully he is right.

Once the car is built you should figure on 30 days for the east coast and probably the south, west cost think 60 days probably more with port holds. They aren't getting the car from the plant in Germany to a US coast in a week. Might be doable on an SAV from SC plant.

Still scheduled for production. 🙃

So.....guys I've spoken deeply with my friend in Monaco asking for infos one mine. Just to resume, mine was ordered the 4th of june in Italy, initially planned for a week 35 build, then 40 and status 112 since the beginning of sept. Then on monday the bad news. pushed back to status 111.

He told me, just to clarify, that what we see as a "conf. prod. date" is the maximum build week re-expected from the system, but it's probable now that the delayed cars, will move on asap in the production pipeline.

If the car cannot meet the status 150, it's pushed back automathically to 111, but it's probable that it could be built earlier, maybe it's being built now...but I don't know unfortunately. It's a lottery...that's why a user here who had a week45 build, yesterday saw his car produced 5 weeks earlier than scheduled.

Mine for instace, was scheduled, but it's likely it to has a lack of an optional supply that didn't create the conditions to put it into production. You see that in Baltimore almost 300/400 m3's/4s are sitting there for weeks waiting for the RAM retrofit, so for these owners in my opinion, the situation is even worse, because their car is under the sun and weather.

This happened because in order not to stop the production they decided to build uncomplete cars, but now they're facing several logistic problems to fix them.

That's why it's not easy to allocate new cars also for the US market in the last weeks, and for the upcoming probably.

So, what he told me is to be patient, the situation is extraordinary even for BMW which has a consolidated schedule supply, but it's difficult to create a right program.

I know for sure that nearly 60 M3s are built every day in Munich, no more. The majority for the US market, mine, at least until the 13th will not be built, as he doesn't see any M3 for Italy for now. Mine has been pushed back as you know, but it's better it to be build fully spec'd rather than sitting on a car park for weeks waiting for the retrofits in my opinion.

It's true also that a lot of customers didn't experience any stop-sale, but as told, it's a lottery guys. We ordered our cars in the worst period for the car industry since WWII .

I feel for y'all that are purchasing your cars, getting PPE/ceramic coating and they are sitting at the port. Prior to this current build, I had 3 ED's including a F83 TB that sat at the port, but there was no damage, and all were leases.

Benefit of a lease is a new factory paint job in 3 years.

Who was entered body shop?

Let me know if you'll se any status change of yours. it's likely yours to be completed within monday i guess. Ask your genius to see if it's affected to a kind of stop/sale issue (RAM, or other electronic component) after the production process is complete and your car is dispatched. In case you have a stop/sale you know that your car must wait for an uncertaiun time to be retrofitted before the delivery.

I would suggest to BMW to deliver directly to dealers the incomplete cars, and there let them wait for the retrofits.... in order to keep customers calm and let them look at their cars at least.

Any week 41 builds still awaiting production? I am praying mine doesn't get delayed and goes into prod today or tomorrow.

Your at status 150; only a mater of time before you progress to body shop. The tier 1 supplier is assembling your interior and engine will be stamped a VIN.

[MAMBA_M3]

Aren't i in 112 not 150? Still showing scheduled for production, not production started...

Yep you are 112 at the moment, 150 is when the VIN shows

I guess I should be going back to 111 any time now. Third delay 🙃

I was told yesterday that my build will complete on 10/14 and that production began on 9/29. Website still shows production begins and has been that way since the 29th. Also just have to say that the new genius phone system SUCKS!
