Tenative PCD date M235
Looks like I am being given a tenative PCD date of Aug 21st based on my production number. Man this wait has become brutal.....
Ordered M235 April 21th Order accepted by BMW May 2nd & given a prod number (allocation availability delay) Production started June 19th ETA estimate on completion June 27th PCD tenative date Aug 21st Build: Mineral Grey Metallic Red Coral Leather 8-spd auto Premium pkg Tech pkg Cold Weather pkg Harman/Kardon audio Summer PSS That will be 4 mths from the time I ordered to when I touch it.......unbelivable. All because I decided to add the HK upgrade to my build instead of taking a car that was on the boat |

The whole wait has been tougher than I thought (in the case of ehagerty, it's ridiculous) but at the end of the day, we're getting such an awesome car that this will be forgotten very quickly. I, for one, will likely go thru the same whole ordeal in 3 years....hopefully for a M2 (finger crossed!).

In my experience, it would have added 3 weeks to my wait if I chose to do PCD.

From what I was told by the PCD they are backed up and my date is based on my order time + estimated delivery date and the next available time slot. So you do the math....if my car is done on June 27th, when do you think it will be state side. So from that time on till Aug 21st will be wait time. That is their 1st available slot as of yesterday.
Based on my calculations that sums up to weeks not days |

My dealer requested PCD for me. At what point do I hear something to schedule a date? Can I call PC to set a date? |

I was told they will send you an e-mail to confirm.......might take a day or two. Have not received my confirmation yet. Below is what they send to your CA:
" Thank you for submitting a Performance Center Delivery reservation for Mr. Eric Hagerty. Based upon the production number (0717273) of your customer’s vehicle, the earliest available date for Performance Center Delivery is 8/21/2014, your customer would arrive the evening prior. Due to the high volume of reservation requests we receive we are only able to hold this tentative delivery date for a limited time. This tentative delivery date may be released and given to another client if we have not received a response from you within 2 business days of the date of this email. After conferring this date with your customer, please inform us via e-mail if they can attend so we can proceed with delivery arrangements on our end. We will then send a confirmation email to your customer. In the event your customer is unable to take advantage of this date, you have the option of canceling the reservation or you can provide us with 3 alternate days that meet your customer’s schedule. Alternate dates must fall within 10 working days (Monday thru Friday) after the original assigned date above. Again, dates are assigned according to your customer’s production number and are on a first-come-first-serve basis and Fridays are typically the first days to fill. You should advise your customer that he/she should not make any travel arrangements until they have received a confirmation email from us and that travel arrangements should not be made more than three weeks prior to the delivery date. Due to production schedules, weather, or other unforeseeable circumstances, the delivery date may need to be changed prior to that three week window. Please note and advise your customer of the following information: ˇ The delivery program is designed for the owner and one guest; additional guests cannot be accommodated, NO EXCEPTIONS. ˇ Child care services are not available. If a client brings a guest under the age of 12, He/ She will be required to accompany them in our café and will not be able to participate in the BMW factory tour or any driving activities during the day. ˇ Pets are not allowed at the BMW Performance Center or the Greenville Marriott. European Delivery Customers Since European Delivery customers receive a vehicle overview when they take delivery of their vehicle in Europe, a vehicle overview will not be given when they take re-delivery at the BMW Performance Center. This allows us to handle the demand for customers who have ordered their vehicle and have not received a vehicle introduction. Please make sure your European Delivery customers are aware of this information. Accessories Vehicle accessories can be ordered through your online option ordering tool, to be installed at the VDC. All VDC installed accessories can now be ordered through a tab called “VIA Options” (VDC Installed Accessories). Please reference bulletin number V-13-0212-0003 for more information and to see which models qualify. The BMW Performance Center does not offer accessory installation. Accessories that cannot be installed at the port will need to be ordered and installed at your BMW Center. Cancellations If you need to cancel your customer’s Performance Center Delivery, please complete the cancellation form available on BMW CenterNet immediately. Please note the following two situations: - If the vehicle has already been shipped to the BMW Performance Center, you are responsible for any shipping charges that apply to transport the vehicle back to your BMW Center. Vehicles are normally delivered to our facility approximately 2 weeks prior to the scheduled delivery date. - If the vehicle has not been shipped to the BMW Performance Center, the vehicle will simply be re-routed to be transported to your BMW Center at no additional cost. Thanks and we look forward to working with you and your customer! |

At what point does the CA first contact PSD?...upon order, upon production ID assigned, upon production week assigned, upon production start? I have been assigned production ID and week but no word from Performance Center.

When the factory gives you a confirmed production date. I had been in "Scheduled for production but with no confirmed date" since May 2nd so they never could schedule a apt with the PCD. You have to wait till you get that date. Mine started build 6/19 and is scheduled to be completed 6/27. So on 6/20 my CA contacted PCD
