Late Jan-Feb orders

67R60 · 02-17-2011, 04:30 PM

Hey TonyUF,

Just called the 800 number and my vehicle is in production slated for completion on February 24th. Yeehaaa!

TonyUF · 02-17-2011, 09:47 PM

A friend who ordered in 2006 said BMW sent him a DVD and welcome packet while he was waiting for delivery of his car. Do they still do this?

Hi TonyUF,

BMW will probably mail you a bunch of stuff. The last time I received manuals, CD's, a rendering of a 335 (chip foose style) and on my 1st anniversary they sent me a nice BMW pen that I use in business. Totally unexpected, but nice touches. The Loyalty program worked, I just ordered another one.

Nice! Mine did too at the same day! I think our cars are being produced side by side, only difference is I got msport with le mans blue, vs your sport package and space gray and u got cold weather, I didn't want the headlight washers. :-)

benzboy429 · 02-19-2011, 08:23 PM

you guys are sooo lucky, I don't think the next ship leaves until the 23rd!!!

dnanrub · 02-19-2011, 08:33 PM

She left Southampton and is on her way into the Atlantic. Next stop HALIFAX on the 28th.

phy · 02-22-2011, 09:58 AM

is it just me or is the inability to track where our cargo ship in real time a little frustrating? I guess I should feel lucky that Fidelio participates in the WMO-VOS program. Can't wait!

But yes, so far so good. Fair deal, didn't give me a hard time in getting it done, obviously very knowledgeable -- it's pretty much like dealing with any other forum member here. I'm glad that it wasn't the typical sales experience ("how much do you want to pay per month?" "what can I do to get you in this car today?" sort of schtick)... And the alternative is getting ignored (hello Sterling BMW) or disrespected (hi McKenna!) for no good reason.

Anyway, I'll save the review for after I get my car.

add Rusnak to that list

benzboy429 · 02-24-2011, 12:55 PM

anyone else on the Faust?

NHSkibm · 02-24-2011, 09:36 PM

Since I'm trolling his thread looking to calculate how long from order to delivery it takes based on post dates I'm going to put a stick in the ground for anyone else that may do what I'm doing right now:

- Ordered a 328i today (literally built it and got a production number today). Will update as I know more.

Quick story - totalled my ZSP ZPP ZCW 6MT and more 2006 330 on Sunday (not my fault) and while working with Insurance this week to get total loss sqaured away I decided to 'step down' to a 328i but threw in ZMP ZPP ZCW and more..

TonyUF · 02-25-2011, 02:27 PM

Production started!! :-)
