Give your salesperson a call. They have access to the CN rail tracking database.

From what I have read, it takes about 2 weeks to get from Halifax to Ontario and about 4 weeks to get to Vancouver. Where are you located?

The strike created a backlog but it is hard to tell how much it has delayed shipments.

Located In Van

I am in Vancouver and I ordered from auto west in Richmond. I have heard that it takes about 10-12 days to get to vancouver by train. Iv asked if they can track the car. Their reply was that they only know when it gets to Anacis island but they cant track it on rail. They didnt even know how to track it on the boat

Agree . Its not their fault for the strike, but it is definitely their benefit to clear their lot as soon as possible. They may be willingly to come down atleast half way, so everyone wins.

Dude! They are not willing to negotiate a single dollar. Their attitude is that "if I don't take it somone else will." This car also has wood trim and I asked for Aluminum.

Regardless of the stike, BMW should have better service. They are not willing to accomodate their customers, good thing I didn't sell my current car or I would've been left without a car. BMW needs to make up to their customers by throwing in a few freebies in order to keep their customers happy.

I prefer Wood over Aluminum, plus it doesn't scratch. Go see the car in person and see what you think.

Yeah, Aluminum in person is not exactly as described in the photos (and for the worst). On the other hand, Gray Poplar is also not exactly as described in the photos (but for the better).

After a few arguments with my sales rep, I was able to get a car. Which they apparently had to transfew over from another dealership. I'm taking delivery at the end of this week. Whoo Hooo. It's everything I wanted and not paying an extra penny. All this hassle was worth it. Pics to follow.
