I can tell you that we get our cars the day that the VPC releases them to the carrier or the next morning bright and shiny. you're not far at all so it's gotta be the same deal. they may have gotten it tonight, but need to get it through service and detail before you can get it.

i am not sure how you know this, but i hope you are right!!

ok don't hold me to it... I just found your car and our status still shows it at the VPC. if it wasn't yesterday then hopefully it will be released today and possible delivery tonight or tomorrow. worst case would probably be monday. since you ordered through the other dealer I don't have complete tracking info so my info is only as good as yours, but hopefully it will be sooner rather than later.

sorry if I got your hopes up, but it may still happen today!(sometimes we get a car and deliver it while it still shows it at the VPC).

Almost right. In the U.S. the cable is suppose to come with the option and is therefore in the price (dealer is to order the cable 'tho). In Canada , cable is not included in the price and customer orders cable.

That is why Canada 6FL is cheaper ($350 Cdn) than in the U.S.

Got the call from my CA today, my cable is in! Only 2 days after delivery. I didn't have time to go so I will go pick it up on Monday

I leave for Munich in 4 days without the darn cable and not expecting to get one before I leave. Am I upset?, yeah, a bit and BMWNA sure could have done a better job. I don't blame my CA, it's not his fault. I am not going to let this spoil an otherwise great experience. Now, if my car overheats on the autobahn, then, yes, I'll be more than upset.

Have a gr8 trip to Munich and try not to wear out the tires on the Autobahn !! Let us know how the trip and pickup goes - photos would be gr8 too !!

My 335i cabrio is supposed to be ready on May 9th and I am going to be in Munich on May 8th returning from a Med cruise. A few days earlier and we would have modified our trip to stay in Munich a bit and do the ED thing too. Just did not work out this time.

Have fun !!
