Stuck on "In paint booth"

335rocket · 08-11-2023, 10:35 PM

So I have been patiently waiting for my G80 M3 6 speed to be built. It took 2 months to even get an allocation. Finally when I did, the build process moved along quickly. Now for the past 9 days the status shows "in paint booth". Wondering if anyone had a similar situation with the status being stuck on something for that period of time. Just so hyped to get this car lol.

Just curious but does that mean the plant starts back up the first week in September ?

Per calbears in another thread (on which weeks the factory is closed), so sounds like it’s model dependent when they start back up

Quote:

Weeks 32 & 33 at Dingolfing (G82/83) or the first 2 weeks of August
Weeks 32-35 at Munich (G80)
