My car was suppose to enter production the forth week of January. Turns out my car went into production on January 12th and is suppose to finish production tomorrow, the 21st. Hopefully that gives you guys waiting some hope. I ordered mine from a dealership right outside of Philadelphia, my SA thinks my car should be at the dealership by mid February.

Extrapolating, I get first week of April for dealer pickup.

Dang it. I'm still showing no confirmed production date.

Hey, I just found out that if you ask to speak to a human being, you may get more updated info than you would from the automated system.

The automated system tells me the same thing "no confirmed date", but this time, I insisted on speaking to a person, and they looked in their system and told me week 6.

Speak to a person ... you might get more up-to-date info. Good luck !

Like I mentioned to Supernaut, the most updated info can be obtained from option #3 below:

1 - The MyBMW site
2 - The cyborg with a fake vagina, on the 1-800 automated system
3 - A person with a real penis/vagina, on the 1-800 customer service line

#1 and 2 are potentially days old.

Live person on the phone will have the most up to date info. Your CS as access to the same info and potentially more details. My car is at port and the BMW website says "Finishing touches taking place", The phone line says the same thing. A live person said the same thing BUT was able to say that the car was awaiting transport to the dealer and that should occur on the 19th (yesterday!!!!!!!) Where is my car! Saturday I should have it. Have fun waiting.

Well I ordered !one at the end of October and it was shipped out of Munich in December and arrived on the west coast Jan 14th. Been sitting in port and got confirmation they were installing the LSD and all the other goodies today. Crazy thing is I'm flying down to pick it up Saturday and we don't know if its going to be at the dealership. Talk about a nail biter! I'm freaking out right now!

Oh well ...
It has very little to do with configuration details, actually, it just depends on when your dealer's allotment was for. Yours was for February, alas. (Mine is rather complicated and went into production last week, but that is neither here nor there.)

Also, about the the time waiting for production to start being the hardest--yes and no. Yes, because whatever part you are in is always the hardest , but no because at least you have a set date for production to start. After the car is produced, everything after that is just total luck, bad luck, and randomness. You hear stories all the time of people's car waiting for three weeks before it gets on a boat, or not getting released by the EPA for two weeks on arrival. That production is the last certain date you have, enjoy it

And as far as a dealer or anyone else giving a projected delivery date, that's a little disingenuous on their part: all they are telling you is how long it usually takes, not any info specific to you. The logistics post-production are not prearranged and depend on many different circumstances that are constantly in flux. So, cross your fingers for me and I'll croos my fingers for you, and hope we all get our cars sooner than later.

What are the other goodies ? Nav, etc ?

I thought those goodies are installed in Bavaria.

So, I called the automated line: still no confirmed date for production. I then talked to the rep and.....my car started production TODAY. Expected completion in Feb 2. They just aren't showing the Performance Center as the delivery point, so I need to make sure that is set.
And there was much rejoicing!

Do you know when your original production week was supposed to be? I'm trying to get an idea how far ahead they are getting bumped forward. Thanks

I never had that info. I went from "no production date" to "your car started production this morning" in a phone call. She even told me the info was posted at 05:27:51 this morning! I'll go with that as the moment of conception - 11:27:51 Leipzig time.
