G87 M2 BMW Order / Waitlist

RobM2 · 09-05-2024, 12:36 PM

Any sense of the rumor of no-delivery until October is true?

Several folks have mentioned that on this forum but if there are people here with build dates ~now, holding these all for weeks seems weird.

My build is supposed to be done today but it still says Step 3, production begins.

I have been at production begins since 8/20. The genius gave me a production week of 9/2 back on 8/12. No updates on the website as of this morning. I am guessing we will get bumped up several steps at once the next time it is updated.

I am looking forward to seeing photos of the first round of cars.

My CA called me today and said my ‘25 FPB should arrive at the dealership between September 10-15th.

Same here, production date of 9/6 but no updates yet. I wonder if it'll start moving tomorrow

Agreed… my previous G80 arrived at the port in Brunswick and took 5 days to go thru VPC and make it to Jacksonville, FL. Definitely not an immediate turnaround. And now I’m in Tampa, so we shall see… regardless, it’s gonna be a great day when they arrive!

Final ass-em-bly. It's been there for almost a day now, I'm just in Tokyo at the moment so I don't get to post updates until late, which is probably like middle of the night for some of y'all. Anyways, car was sitting at Assembly In Progress for a couple days, then skipped QA (hopefully not actually) and went straight to Final Assembly.

Really thinking hard about putting HAS on as a port installed option. I've still got time. What to do, what to do

I don’t think you can add port installed options after production begins (at least that is what my CA told me).

Huh, I heard right up until it gets to port. Doesn't change anything that happens before it gets on the boat, just after it gets taken off so it made sense to me. I'll find out by Monday.

I checked this morning and I just moved to entering assembly line as well. Hopefully an October baby is arriving.

Any other Portimao Blue/Carbon Roof/Silver Wheels/HAS coming in this batch? Real life photos please. I am tired of looking at the computer generated photos. I want to see photos in a driveway!

I think our batch on the ship right now is the first of the 2025’s so you are probably not gonna see any photos until we receive ours.

In case anyone wants an update on the Glovis Champion, here’s her position as of 12:30a EDT via satellite (yup, cuz I’m that bored on a sat night)… lol. XPEL tint and PPF appointment got scheduled today. This is getting real, y’all!

I have M240 on the vessel, taking delivery at the performance center.... can't wait, will be the second this year lol (X3 M40i in March)

djaymez · 09-09-2024, 02:40 PM

Y’all ready for this?! (Cue the Space Jam theme)
Less than 14H till the Port of Brunswick!

TallGibbs · 09-09-2024, 02:58 PM

Glad our ship made it out of the gulf before the huricane !!

ruffstik · 09-09-2024, 04:01 PM

Finally saw some movement on what seemed like forever at step 3. I've now entered assembly.

wife-dog-bmw · 09-09-2024, 08:51 PM

Week 36 build here and I just jumped to Final Assembly, Step 9

vivcal · 09-10-2024, 03:33 AM

Just updated to status code 160 - released to distribution, today (9/9).

For those of you in the same boat (literally lol) with a west coast delivery, there are two NYK ships going out of Lazaro Cardenas to Port Hueneme this month:
- Graceful Leader (departing 9/17, arriving 9/22)
- Oceanus Leader (departing 9/26, arriving 10/2)

Anyone have any guesses on what the odds are that it makes one of these two ships?
