I guess I'm production week 42 (October 18). Does that mean it will be completed on 10/18 or that's when it will start moving into 151, 152, etc.

I read before that the production date was when it completed production, and that it should start moving to 153 (entering assembly line, etc) a couple of days before.

But in my case, my Production Date was today, and I entered the assembly line just today around noon. (at least according to the tracker). Wasted a bunch of refresh cycles the last two days, staring at the lady with the freckles.

I'll let you know how I progress to give you an idea.

Really depends. Mine finished on my production day, a few members here started on production day. It only takes roughly 1-3 days to complete the whole build of the car so it won't matter in the grand scheme of things. They might edit your production day by a day or 2 depending when its considered completed. I got held up in 155 QA for 3 days and then 160 Final Assembly for 4 days. The actual assembly of the car will fly by.

I am waiting in 165 now.

Today I progressed through, paint, entering assembly line, assembly started (154), quality check. Then stopped there (155) and they bumped my production date to tomorrow (5th).

I guess it was Corona time for the night shift.

I was surprised that they could paint and assemble the same day. Thought paint needed time to cure.

Anyway. Hoping the day shift comes loaded with coffee and finish her off.

A similar progression happened to me last week.

I've only seen a sample size of two cars in the past month, but in both cases when they were ultimately switching to 'Ready for Transport' it happened around midnight EST. In my case, it was on a Sunday night into Monday, which seems very strange.

Well midnight just happened and my status switched to Final Assembly (160).

And the production date switched back from the 5th to the 4th. (It is still the 4th at the factory for the next 2 hrs)

Looks like the Night Shift decided to go back in 😎

I think the post Corona crew eyeballed my M2 and went - “we don’t need no stinking quality check, it’s good to go, send it.” [sound of M2 doing donuts in the parking lot]

Congrats! Glad to hear it’s on the way! Does your status in My Garage show “Ready For Transport” still?

No. It is at 195. It was loaded on a ship on 9/24 at Veracruz but the My Garage page didn't update to 195 until 9/28.

This is why I think that BMW is still primarily using Veracruz for east coast shipments: I was expecting mine to ship out of Altamira but it went to 195 while the ship was anchored out at sea waiting for a berth at Altamira. It was then that I realized it was already loaded at Veracruz. So, to BMW, it was in fact in transit to the dealer - the ship had a stop at Altamira for more vehicles (probably not BMWs).

With the delay in My Garage updating by several days, some would think their cars are loaded in Altamira when in fact they were loaded a Veracruz.

This additional stop Altamira delayed my car's delivery by another 6-7 days!

Everything is always delayed with the statuses.

My CA said it shows it was in transit to the port since 9/21 but hasn’t been assigned to a ship yet. Still stuck in 165 ready for transport.

Just got an update from my CA that it’s already shipped and expected to arrive in NJ on 10/15. Says I should have it roughly a week after that.

Also my garage still says “ready for transport”

Congrats to all who are now on the water. It won’t be long now. Exciting.

Seems like things are moving for the group.

I’m now selling my old Corvette/Camaro parts and buying BMW Gxx ones 😎
