I am not 100% sure sorry

In our case we did the work for him.

Yep, mine said it was picked up April 29th my LHF, then on May 4th the status reverted and it said it wasn't picked up yet.. then May 5th it got picked up and moved to the dealer. Maybe this is why they don't have tracking through BMW Canada - so the average consumer wont figure out how flaky their entire logistics chain is once the car hits Canada.

I agree on being on top of it with your dealership. Mine called the regular driver on their route and asked him to move my delivery up and it was on the truck the next morning...Driver even made sure to keep the dealer up on his track from Toronto to Kingston.

My Son's car finally arrived this morning and they are getting it ready to deliver tomorrow. She's a bit dirty as it was heading to get cleaned up. We'll pick it up with the M Black Grills and the following day (Thursday) she is booked in with Brooks De Geer @ Topgeerwraps for Clear Bra 3M Pro Full Hood, Bumper, Fenders A Pillars, Mirrors and luggage area (trunk) plus 35% Formula Tint all the way around. The day after (Friday) it's getting the VMR 710's in black installed by John at Leny's and the following week (Saturday) getting it coded by Steve at code my bimmer.

Congrats! Looks awesome. Bet it will look even better with the black grills and wheels and tint.
Pretty sure my car is still at port. Going on thirty days there with no real explanation why. Awesome...

I looked for you and it still hasn't gotten on the rails.

Thanks for looking. It could be loaded in another day or another thirty and the wait is killing me. Just would like to know when it will arrive.

Trust me my son has haunted the dealership. Our sales guy is probably glad to deliver because we were driving him nuts.

Don't get what causes this delay on your car. Yours was in a week before ours and we are picking ours up at the dealer tomorrow. Potentially there is another delay which is the trucking company. Our car would have sat there until my son called them. We could have got it on the weekend if we would have pushed them. Maybe it's the dealer and or their location. Maybe they wait for a number of cars to accumulate a particular dealer or area...I'm guessing.

I have no idea either. I thought I remembered you got yours through Budd's in Oakville? Cause I got mine through the same dealer. Personally I don't believe there's much organization at all in terms of order and I just got shit luck and it's taken a while. Hopefully it loads soon.

Looks amazing, congrats!! Mine just got built last week haha so I'm still waiting for it to leave Germany!

Here she is. My son was showing some love.

Had the car out with my wife through a few winding country roads. This is an amazing car. I absolutely love driving it. My wife's 2016 X5 MSport that cost about $25K more doesn't come anywhere near the handling and power. You guys will love it!!

Tomorrow: 3M Pro Full Clear Bra and 35% Tint
Friday: New shoes - VMR 710's Black

Man, you need to get the dealer to do something. I look on the CN site for you everyday and nothing. You need to kick up a fuss.

Anyway, this is a great car. Real fun to drive. Found it comfortable, quiet smooth but yet responsive. Just so impressed with it. You'll love it.

I just got an email today that my car has left port. Finally. So I'm hoping that I'll be able to pick up the car in the next week and a half to two weeks. Though I suppose I shouldn't be so optimistic given how long it sat at port. Either way, ecstatic to finally have some movement.

Humm, don't see anything on the rail. Maybe CN's system is bit behind.

Hang in there dude. It's worth the wait. Just keep pushing your sales guy, call the shipping company once it gets in Concord. Put a rush on it.

Budds will say they need 3 days for PDI. Push them for 1 business day like I did. Just keep the pressure on them.

Thanks for the tips. You and X54TH both. I appreciate it. I will keep on them.

Here she is all done up. Clear Bra, 35% Tint, Black Mirrors and Black VMR 710 Rims. My son is very happy and so am I. I think this car looks better than any other car we have in our stable and damn it's fun to drive.

Looking good! I like the wheels. And based on your pictures I'm thinking 35% tint might be the way to go. I was thinking 20% on the rear window but I think 35% might be perfect.

Also, you guys are going to love this shit, but apparently my car just arrived at the dealer! Apparently logistics are way behind, but hey, I'll take it. They told me they need three days to prep it but this weekend doesn't work for me to go pick it up anyways so I'm not going to push on it. Should be able to pick the car up Tuesday or Wednesday. Can't wait.

No way??? What the hell I didn't see it on the rails. Oh well, it here!!! I so happy. You'll love this beast.
