Below is an updated timeline of mine, for reference, hopefully it'll give other folks an idea of where they're at in the build process.

Production Date - 4/15

Timeline:
- 1/19: Entered waitlist
- 2/5: Allocation received, order placed - 111 (Build Week 12)
- 2/6: Individual request submitted - 102
- 2/13: Individual request approved - 111 (Build Week changed to 16)
- 3/15: Scheduled for production - 112
- 3/28: Production begins, VIN assigned - 150
- 4/11: Exterior body assembly begins - 151
- 4/11: In the paint booth - 152
- 4/12: Entering assembly line - 153

Are there no webcams available any longer? In the past I have used the "BLG" webcam as noted in the sticky for tracking your vehicle but it looks like that site is no longer found.

I am confident I will be week 17 and hit the target build date of 4/23.

Status just updated to "in the paint booth - 152" as of a few minutes.

And just like that, “awaiting carrier assignment”

Congrats! In a few days you’ll be at the port and then hopefully on a ship soon after that. I’m hoping to be crossing the Atlantic by this time next week.

Thanks for the context! At what point should I call BMW Genius to get the name of the ship? I assume they don't know what ship will be assigned at this point? It's been 3+ years since I did this for my F90 so I am a little foggy.

You are right, they don't know what ship for now. They said, I should call then when I see the status "In transit" so they can tell us what ship.

Depends on where you are headed, us week 14 folks have been at the port for 3 weeks waiting for a vessel to Baltimore. The next ship to east coast will be May 4th.

Just moved to at port!! Is that true? I believe I’ll be Charleston delivery and it seemed like no vessels until end of April (on WW, unsure about KLine)

Thank you for confirming, the wait must be killing you guys. In that case, weeks 14 up to possibly 17/18 may be on the same WW/Kline vessels

Yes the wait is definitely killing us but it will be worth it! Yeah a lot of us will be on the same vessels!

My car made it to the port mid-last week. I was secretly hoping it would get shipped this past weekend, but now I am just hoping it gets on the next one going out and doesn't get stuck in the port for more than 2 weeks.

For those of us heading to Port Hueneme and sitting on “dispatched from factory” status, do we have any inclination into what ship we could be waiting on? I assume I can’t get the ship name until my status changes to “in transit”, correct? For context my build date was 4/22.

The next ship out looks like it leaves on May 3rd.
