How accurate is BMW Owners circle?

ericash · 10-20-2006, 10:09 AM

I ordered my car two weeks ago today (Friday). When the dealer submitted the order they put in two production numbers to see which one would take quicker??

They said that the earlier one took and it should go into production that week.The Owners circle says that it is still on order. Could this be true or is it an updating the website deal??

Anyone have experience with this??

Call the 800 number, it is much better.

I ordered the same day, but you seem to be a week ahead. I just called BMW to have that switched, I like your car better.

I called the toll free number and the guy knew my name already due to the ANI, nice touch. I just went over the order with him since the OC does not have all the options. He said I should begin production "shortly." Well, the saleswoman told me week 44 so that's still a week away.....

I ordered a 328XI on Aug. 20 and the car arived at the dealer on Oct. 20, Two months. I found Owners Circle updates throught the entire process to lag what is actually happening by a couple of days at least.

I ordered last Monday and already shows "schedule for production" on the winner's circle website.

Let's see how long it takes until that changes to "awaiting transportation"

My dealer told me that they expect the car to be delivered the second week of December, let's see.
