Same here, though not quite as bad. Mine was finished with production on 10/30 and is still “ready for transport”. I’m hoping to make the next boat or two to the east coast. I’m guessing possibly the ships Morning Menad or Arc Defender.

Was a little worried when it sat in QC for the day as I started reading other members talking about potential recalls / QC delays but I'm happy to see it chugging along nicely. I think I might get it first week of December if all the stars align!

Starting to think about booking ceramic / ppf + looking at splitters and spoilers lol...this is going to be expensive...

Mine has finally started moving and went from 150 through the steps in production but now I am at 155 for a whole day. Turns out the cars production end date was the 11th but pushed to the 15th and BMW genius rep didn't know why.
Has your status moved at all from final assembly?

Does anyone know if the car comes via train or ship to Canada?

Looks like Morning Menad is underway and leaving Altimara and headed to Brunswick as a final destination. Hopefully some people have their cars on it.

How does this work? How can I get an order submitted and production to start immediately? Is that even possible?

Amazing car! That color is great.
Funny enough I also ordered from fairfax.

I noticed that your mirror caps are black and I think that's a carbon roof. Do MY25 M2's with carbon roofs come with black mirror caps?

Edit: looks like all the new colors (twilight purple, grigio, voodoo blue, and java green) all come with black mirror caps

thank you!

the tracker went from final assembly to ready for transport today which is pretty awesome, hoping it doesn't wait too long before hopping on the train

Very nice. I ordered mine from Fairfax as well. My build date isnt until Feb though so I still have a while to wait. How was your purchase experience with them?

Nice! They made the process incredibly easy to be honest. No hassle or unnecessary pressure from them. Didn’t try to push warranties or upgrades. This was my first time buying a new car though so I don’t have much to compare it to, but based on what I’ve seen from other dealers online, I’d say this experience was really good

Hopefully it’s sunny out when you take pics to see how different it looks in sunlight.

Man this built but sitting at the factory wait is excruciating.
Which port do cars going for PCD Go to?

Glad to hear. My associate is Petr and he made everything super painless so far. I am probably a good 60 miles from the dealership in another state and all the ordering paperwork was done via email. I haven't actually set foot inside the dealership yet.

Cars for PCD go to Brunswick port.
