Figures. Thanks.

Hopefully they build a lot of M240s week 23.

My sales rep is telling me that the Aussie version will not get the update on the 2 range for at least 2 years since it's new to the market. He thought it was worldwide till I showed him the UK site.

Confident that mine will be ID7 but he may offer me a cancelled order tomorrow

IF it has the performance wheels and M Seats happy to swap to TNM from PB. for a 3 month reduced wait

I'm pretty sure those of us waiting to get a ship to Galveston, Texas will be on the ARC RESOLVE that will pick up either in Veracruz May 24 or Altamira May 27 and make port Galveston May 29

Maybe you should start a business importing them into the US. I am sure there will be a demand for G series cars with iDrive7.

My SA would like this as I’ve been bugging him nonstop. Hopefully!

It's been stuck on final assembly since May 4th😐. Wondering how much longer til I get delivery of my car.

[MPR]

Be grateful, I sat in order received for over a month, now approaching 2 weeks in scheduled for production. Also, be happy you have idrive7

[burkhacs]

Talked to genius today because my order has a completion date of next Monday and zero movement on the online tool. He said their estimated completion dates are the most accurate and the factory has not been the best at updating the online tracker. I hope he is right.

Your sales rep has no idea what they are talking about, any MY23 car will have idrive 8,

You might be the longest waiting maybe? I got one in February and have been pushed all the way to 23 also. If you get pushed out again there no doubt I will also.

You're in 112 so far? I hoping for a VIN next week. If not it wont look good.

Yeah i'm at 112, but shows as still spec changeable which it shouldn't be this close to production

There is also an identical car at the same dealer ordered after mine with a build date of 28 May which is also spec changeable.

Where do you see that? I haven't seen anything like that on my garage.

FWIW My CA was able to change my build that was in 112 when my production week was 14 and was in 112. I heard you can change while in 112 but once it flips to 150 that's it.

[coreyjn7]

Thats information my dealer can see on the back end ordering system, we don't get "my garage" in Australia

I must of got in early mine was due for May build but had a week to spec change. Ordered in April.

Current Status 135(Aus). Might cancel the order and get this Thunder Night that's been offered since the other buyer cancelled.

Its a tough choice, i'd rather get a build with idrive 8 down the track I don't want the hassle of having the old infotainment when reselling in a few years.

But i'd also love to just get anything at this point, mine is a fully optioned thunder night.

My PB is fully optioned as well. I won't rush to get into an early build if any options are missing the change of colour is the only variable. Plus I had a clause in my contract that I need to physically see the car and sit in one or I could cancel my order. So today is the day I can cancel if I don't like the car design.

Spoke with my dealer today. I'm still week 23, still 112, and it's never moved from that status since it first hit in April. I also found out the allocation was originally received in early March.

I caved and added the ZTK package. I really wanted black wheels and the dealer powder coats wheels. No brainer. Now the only options my car won't have are lumbar support and red calipers.

When should us week 23ers be expecting VINs? Next week?

Same here, week 23 at 112 and told my ca to add the ZTK package as well a couple of weeks ago.

I did want the all black wheels too as I ordered BSM to match but figured id just wrap them if anything.

From what I've been reading if we are truly to start at week 23 we should be getting our vins this week latest next week if not be get ready to be pushed out again.
