I’ve been on “production begins ” since last Tuesday and got a vin in that day but I’m Still stuck on that step .
I was wondering the same thing on why it still saying that.

Finally have a VIN and scheduled for production next week 10/27-11/2 for a Voodoo blue individual build.

Initial order date was July 25th and updated to Production Begins on OCT 16th.

So Just shy of 3 months from order to VIN for my Individual Order.

Will have port installed options as well but with the VIN the car finally feels real

Important Options:
Individual paint Voodoo Blue
Manual Trans
Silver Wheels
Regular Seats - Not carbon buckets

How long did it take from placing the order to this point? Mine's been 11 days in status 112.

My order was placed and confirmed on September 30th. I went to the next step of waiting to be scheduled a week later, but my sales person said it was scheduled for the week of 11/10. Then October 18th I got the VIN. Also my vehicle is a non option model. The only thing I paid over base msrp was the paint color.

I’ve only ever ordered domestic vehicles and this process has been so much easier. I waited 8 months for a Mustang GT then 4 months for a TRX.

Another Florida(east coast middle of state) guy here, sitting at dealer on the 21st, in garage yesterday. Now waiting on wheels/tires to arrive from Germany…all the other parts already sitting in garage…exhaust, mid-pipe, HAS, Brake Pads, full carbon fiber, various screen protectors..good luck to all ….

Nice! Almost there. What brake pads are you putting on instead?

[ednir98]

For those who took delivery already, how long was your PDI? I requested to skip the peeling of plastic and wash/paint correction so hoping it will be quick.

[MILLA]

currently in "ready for transport". Hopefully gets on a ship soon!

1 Day. Dealer received 10/22, I picked up 10/23. I was not involved in the PDI - it was detailed and ready when I arrived. They did a great job.

I am getting excited too as mine is ready for transport as well! I placed my order on August 30th and here we are. I have to thank whomever it was that posted a picture of the São Paulo Yellow one sitting at the dealership with the carbon fiber lip on the back. Didn’t know this was installed at port, and had it added to my order. So much appreciated!

[captain slowly]

ordered mine on 8/7, arrived at BMW Manhattan on 10/23, and I picked it up yesterday. First Vegas Red they've delivered. A bit different than what I thought it would be, but I think it suits the car and I'm very happy. Very different car than my F87, much more refined and luxurious and the S58 is a gem.

Kinda wish I knew Vegas Red would look this good. The configurator does it 0 justice. Congrats!

What did you think it would be? From all the pics it seems like a deep cherry red.

Vegas red is fantastic. A German soul red

Just found out my car is status 195 has been shipped (22 oct) and is at sea heading to UK or wherever it goes to first.
I have no idea what port it left from or ship as they can't give me that info. All i know is delivery week is 9th Dec at dealer. Any ideas of schedules ?
