Heck yeah!

Just placed an order at my local dealer for a 24 in the frozen blue and carbon package. SOP isn't till November of 23. I'm betting I don't see the car for a year minimum

It is technically not ordered until you have you have received a production number. My guess, you are on a wait list.

I was told I should be getting that this evening

I put together a spreadsheet of the time in each production step as posted by members here: https://g87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...&postcount=233

Yo!

My first post on the forum. Cannot wait to drive this car. I never thought I would migrate to a BMW from an Audi, but I just cannot resist this car.

Happy to say that I received a production number from my dealer on 6/29/23. I ordered the car in early March. Supposedly, I will have my new M2 in late August to early September.

Hope this info is helpful.

I honestly think you’ll get a 24, and will get the car in October! 6/1 allocations were the last round for 23 models.
Congrats!

If you have a production number, go to https://www.bmwusa.com/ and create an account, gonto your garage to add a car and put in your production number. It will tell you if you are getting a MY23 or MY24 which would also give an inkling as to delivery date. On Monday, ask your CA or call the Genius line for a production date, that will help determine approximate delivery time.

Any chance you have the carbon buckets? Ive read that builds sometimes get “parked” in QC due to some part(s) that became out-of-stock during production, and must be added post-production.

[luckym3girlnj]

No I don’t have carbon buckets just a regular spec😭I called genius and they aren’t helpful the guy said it’s waiting for a boat from Germany. I had to tell him the m2 is made in Mexico😂

I just got off the phone with my dealer this morning I was given my production number yesterday and then called today and told that they will no longer be offering the carbon seats for this allocation as they do not have them. They asked if I wanted to to give up my allocation to wait to see if they become available for the next allocation but there is no guarantee. I have to figure out which way I want to go now.

I wonder why its such a challenge for BMW to consistently offer the carbon buckets - early allocations couldn’t add them, then when later allocations could it seems they constantly had their build week pushed back. Now multiple people have reported they can’t add them to the recent allocation drop once again.

It’s odd when other carbon parts are available, also when you go to build a 24 M3 on the website carbon seats aren’t even an option anymore.

Part of the parts shortage. Same reason you cant get lumbar on the passenger seat (its a driver seat only option).

Right, that makes sense. Hmm but then why leave the option to add them on the configurator for the M2 and M8, but remove them from M3/M4 ?

Exactly, thats the part that doesn’t make sense unless they’re just a little slow

They ar labor-intensive to build. BMW says, "The seats are mostly hand-made as they are a very complex part. Pre-production of the carbon parts takes about 3 hours (worker time), while final assembly is done in about 120min."

They are built in-house at the Munich factory, which is unusual for a car manufacturer. Here is a video about the seats; the carbon bucket segment starts at 1:38.

Was given a week 29 Production start but went to 150 yesterday. Happy Day, moved up about 3 weeks from original estimate

Typically when it hits status 150 you still have about another two weeks +/- until it actually begins production. Our latest G87 did exactly that after being moved up by three weeks.

Edit, I did not suspect that we will see 2024s moved up since MY24 production does not begin until the first week of August. We might see some cars enter production at the very end of July, but we will not see them roll off the line until August 1 - On.

Edit 2, after some reflection, we could see 2024s roll off the line on July 30/31. I have seen this happen at Plant Spartanburg.
