A good rule of thumb for those getting frustrated with the delays - take the amount of time you think it will take for your car to get here, triple it, and do your best to forget you even ordered the car in the first place. Then, one day in the distant future, you will be pleasantly surprised when your car arrives.
Easier said than done lol

Thanks!
Still at Anchor outside of the port. Not sure where it is heading, but attached is a photo of its previous destinations which I would imagine it’s making its rounds again. East Coast VDC are Brunswick, Baltimore, Jersey City. Galveston in the South and Oxnard in the West.

There’s a black one up here in N Scottsdale In doctors’ parking and it looks so good that it made me realize the G87 is really a must-see-in-person car.

The only other one I’ve see was last Jan, during car week, when BMWNA’s Ken Slingland featured a Zandvoort blue one at the Concours d’Elegance in Scottsdale.

Agree pics don't do it justice in general. But ZB also looks so much better IRL.

And since you are local you probably already know but for our climate, max ir/uv/heat rejection tint is a must!

After my build week got pushed for the fourth time I figured out how to care less. I'm just hoping my car gets delivered before the California ban on ICE cars goes into effect in 2035.

Kind of wanting to go stalk that Dr’s car a little bit. Mine is black and I’ve never seen one live.

Easy for those in California or the south to say.

Here in New England, the difference between getting a sports car in October (beautiful fall weather to break it in) vs December (snow and salt everywhere) is monumental.

Literally each week counts.

That didn't even cross my mind, but that's a good point. If I could sacrifice a couple weeks and get mine late so you East Coast guys could some Fall mileage, I would.

Thanks for the thought, but I’m happy for all the members getting their M2s.

Our turn will come. Even in the winter we will have the occasional nice day. Global warming will help a bit. 😎

I appreciate that thought as I’m expecting an Alpine White manual arriving mid November 😩

Thank you! That sounds right now let's set sail!

At which dealership are you taking delivery? Mine will be at BMW North Scottsdale. It'd be cool if a few were delivered at the same time.

Mine and Searay55555 are both at Chapman in Chandler and should be the same week despite mine being done first theyll likely ship together but then i gotta wait on some port installed options.. I'm hoping to make the 9-22 ship and take delivery in like mid October but we shall see.

Mine was week 34. Been status 165 since 8-24. Thought there was a chance of making the 9-7 ship but seems that just wasn't meant to be lol.

Hopefully we can all get on in the next 10 days. Would give me more confidence if the tracker would update to show at port
