They're in the UK so BMW Genius doesn't exist for them. I would suggest calling the Client Advisor to see if they know

BMW UK does have Genius, but they're nowhere near as informative as the USA service - several of us have asked for this info, but have been told it's not available on their system. I'm seeing my dealer to discuss the part-ex value of my current car, so I'll see if he can find out for me.

Ah, cheers. Over here we call them Sales Executives but don't tend to use the abbreviations you guys do.

For us westerners with cars on the Grand Legacy, according to an updated Port of Hueneme schedule, the expected arrival at Port Hueneme here in SoCal has moved to tomorrow the 19th of October. It is currently dockside in Long Beach, only some 65 miles south of Port Hueneme.

Making some moves around the factory over the last 2 days. Finally typed out my timeline, as well. My build has been right on schedule.


7/13/22 - Contacted local dealer. Was told I was "sliding into an allotment" they have for a late August build.
8/19/22 - I asked to make a change to my current build. CA made the mistake of sending me a copy of the build sheet. Build sheet shows I am at status 047 and really don't have an allocation at all. Another CA at the dealer slips up and tells me I have 6 others in front of me and it could be 3-4 months until I get an allocation.
8/20/22 - Blood finally not boiling anymore. I start calling every BMW dealer within a reasonable distance from SLC. CA at the North Scottsdale dealership looked up all Western US dealers with allotments. Stevens Creek in Santa Clara has 6 available.
8/20/22 - I get an allotment for a week 42 build (status 111) and place a deposit. I was able to edit the build to my specs.
9/14/22 - Status 112 / Order scheduled for Production
10/07/22 - Status 150 / Production Started
10/17/22 - Status 151 / Body Shop Started
10/17/22 - Status 152 / Paint Shop Started
10/17/22 - Status 153 / Assembly Started
10/18/22 - Status 154 / Assembly in Process
10/18/22 - Status 155 / Quality check

Two tugs inching the Grand Legacy into its final docking position at Port Hueneme; it should be fully docked momentarily...

Update: Now Docked!

For car guys like us, having a car built is our lame version of what women go through with pregnancy and birth...
