I wish they would improve their system or educate their call staff. I guess I'll find out in a couple days what's going on if the status changes.

FWIW, I was told that they will tell you the vessel your car is on once it's loaded (in case you don't want to ask your CA).

She was wrong, I can guarantee it! Now whether the car actually starts production this week.. is another thing.

Interesting.. your "Confirmed" production week is 19 (i.e. the week starting today) but your est. build start date is next week!

Also in that pic everyone can see the format for Conf. Prod being [Yr/Mo/Wk]..!

I think that last line (5/12/14) is the estimated completion date, which aligns with the estimated date of completion per the 1-800 #.

[pikcachu]

wonder what the 1-800 people will say when they see 2014/9/32 ?

"your vehicle will be built the 32nd of September"

This VIN decoder (http://www.bmwarchive.org/vin/bmw-vin-decoder.html) now pulls info from my car. Since my "estimated completion date" (per 1-800-) and/or "production date" (per my CA) is tomorrow, I think this is a great sign! Hopefully the car will be done by the end of the week and on one of the next two boats out!

Just checked production status and it is complete--on schedule.Given that I'm on the east coast, I think it should be here in 3 wks.

When was your "estimated completion date"?

Mine has the 9th as the estimated completion but my car is still in status 150, meaning it has not even entered the body shop!

My VIN also still does not work with the VIN decoders.

I am in the exact same situation and dates as you.

[ciwhamc]

just got a production week/date. They said date but I think it is the week.

21st week or the 21st of may. However it does not matter as the 21st week is the 19th-25th of may. So who cares.

[TAY TAY]

My vin doesn't work on the decoder, and my estimated build date is 5/8/14. I placed the order in late FEB.

[mikeyymonster]

Looks like May is going to be a big month for a lot of members here. I'm jealous.

[bubsterino]

same boat again. no dice on the VIN.

Mine worked the day before my estimated completion date. So give it a couple days maybe.

FWIW - the 1-800- hasn't changed for me and today is my est completion date.

[alz0rz]

yeah.. really hoping that I get some movement this week

My date was 5/6/14 and the 800 # reported it complete today.

I just got the somewhat heartbreaking news from my SA that my delivery date got pushed back from 5/9 to 5/17. He's reaching out to his guy at the port to figure out what's going on, but looks like I'm stuck waiting another week.

I know this might be somewhat off-topic, but had to vent.

I assume you called frequently and there were no updates in between the "your vehicle is in production with an estimated completion date..." message and the "completion" message??

Mine still says in production. Darn.
