I was on a waitlist and was informed early January that an allocation would be available. Once they have an allocation then you can spec the car/order. Next step is status 111, order accepted, then for me in a couple weeks went status 112, scheduled for production. Then was about a month before 150 - entered production. You can make changes to the order up to status 150, then it locks.

My m340i just switched from final assembly (3/27) to ready for transport yesterday. Are any of you east coasters in the same step as me? I guess I’m just waiting for a ship to take us from Veracruz to Brunswick now.

Thank you for the laugh . Yes the wait for these it seems is a bit more variable than from Germany. I’ve seen deliveries in just over 2 months to some describing 6-7 months for the carbon/paint delays. I’m striking my wait in VPC up to the MP HAS install but maybe it’s something else.
In the meantime been doing a lot of reading and nesting, with a bunch of stuff here awaiting its arrival.

Also waiting with you. Final assembly was 3/21. Ready for transport was 4/11, exactly we weeks to the day. Bravery Ace is due in to Veracruz on the 20th, but I imagine that is too soon for your M2 at the point its at on the wait

The cutoff point is prior to the car entering the production queue. So if the car is scheduled for lets say May 1st production start, you'd want to have your final spec submitted prior to that date.

I assume that also applies to port installed options as well correct? If I wanted the HAS kit, for example, would that also have to be entered before the start of production?

Nope. I was able to add the MP HAS to my build after production had started. I believe the cutoff for that is prior to the vehicle getting to the US port vehicle processing center.

I already know what I want and would have everything in the system from the get go but would just stress to the sales guy to make sure those options are included in the build. |

I had to push on my sales guy on getting the MP HAS kit added. He wasn't familiar with the process of adding port installed options so he initially was going down the path of having the service dept add the HAS kit once the car was at the dealership but they couldn't match the port-installed option price. After telling him about the advice from other forum members on port installed options he found someone there that showed him how to add it.

One can dream right 😂 How were you able to find Bravery Ace was coming in on the 20th and going to Brunswick?

https://gaports.com/facilities/port-...ook-brunswick/ If you have the internal document from BMW with your production number with your build, it should say what Port of Entry your car is using.
