I'm located in South FL & placed my order for my M240i on Nov 22nd. It is now December 27th and my car remains in it's 047 Status. Zero updates in terms of VIN or Production #. This is my first time ever ordering a car - let alone purchasing my first BMW. What a stressful experience lol, I just want to see some sort of update. The wait ain't so bad when you see things are getting done. I am praying I see some type of progress the first week of January. I'm already expecting my car late February - early March.
Anyone wanna chime in on allocations/order dates/updates? Let's all share some
holiday pain 
Cheers
My order :
-Brooklyn Grey
-Shadowline Pkg
-791M Black Wheels
-HK Audio
-Live Cockpit Nav
-Illuminated M Trim
-Red brake calipers |
This is my first vehicle ever to order and also my first BMW. The delay in the process and not getting information on updates has drained me of all the initial excitement I once had. My order was placed 8/28, Production Start on 10/13, in Quality Check 11/12. It's still in Quality Check to this day, 7 weeks and counting with no signs of moving. CA says due to possible part shortage but has no specific information on what part nor when the part will come in. Also, read that BMW is doing what they call "Hole Shoring". It's when BMW builds the whole car except for the missing part and then can be completed relatively easily when the part shows up. Also, found out from a San Luis Potosi Plant employee that they are on vacation for three weeks which began 12/20.
My Order:
-Black Sapphire Metalic
-Tacora Red Vernasca Leather
-Shadowline Pkg
-Parking Assist Package
-Premium Package
-Remote Start
-797 19" M Wheels
-HK Audio
-Live Cockpit Nav
-Illuminated M Trim
-M Sport Brakes with Red calipers
