Fortunately right now we're focused on the move so much that the BMW is in the background... Yeah, I check it when I have a minute, but packing, setting up the new place, etc. is monopolizing most of our time. Crazy month... move 5.11 - western Caribbean cruise 5.18-5.25... And maybe Mediterranean Blue M550i sometime after....

I'm getting the exact same color!! Can't wait for the Med blue to come in. Drove by the dealership twice again today, saw 2 trucks but they were all filled with X5's. My car is scheduled to come in tomorrow, let's see what happens. Looked at bmw website today and shows it's still at port. |

And, unbelievably.... MyBMW now says... wait for it.... In Transit!!! You could have picked my jaw off the floor when I saw that just now... Automated phone line still says at port and they don't open til 9 EDT, but you can bet I'll be calling trying to find out what ship....

I remember the day I saw the update "in transit", my jaw was displaced for few days lol You will have so much fun tracking your ship once you get that information. It's awesome because it's much different than bmw tracking, your not left guessing or clueless. My dealership sent me an update on Thursday that my car was at VPC on 5/1/19 and assigned a carrier 5/3/19. The shipment date was 5/4/19 and delivery date was set for today 5/6/19, but I just checked online website and the status still says "at the port". I thought it might just be a delay in update. Since you saw an update on your status, I'm now doubtful about it being a delay. Unless it's possible to have delays on some vehicles and not others. To many scenarios I can play out in my head, it will never end lol. |

Mine is on the Olympian Highway due in Brunswick 5/20. Right in the middle of our cruise, so hopefully it'll be our welcome home present!

So I wake up early morning today to use the bathroom, I get back in bed to sleep a little longer. Of course my impulse kicks in, so with only one eye open I decide to look at the BMW website for an update. Guess what I see???? "At the dealership" Forget about getting back into bed or taking a shower. Quickly brushed my teeth and took off to the dealership to look through the parking lot for my car (heart is beating abnormally). Sadly, I couldn't find it anywhere. I decided to wait another 30 mins till they opened up and called them from the parking lot. GM tells me that he doesn't know anything about my car delivery. Since he just got in, I asked him to look through his computer for any updates. No updates of any delievery, and he's not sure why my status states that. I thought I've seen it all, until this happened lol! Should have just went back to sleep smh Sorry, I HAD to share this story I experienced today. |

I don't know, but tracking the ship was the best part for me. After searching for 3 hours online and making 10 different phone calls, I got through to some random person that's part of the trucking company. He connected me to a line and provided me with a number and a lady was able to give me an update on the truck! She said he was in Ohio and should be at dealership today morning. However, she was confused at the end of the phone call as to how I got her number lol!! Told her it's a long story |

Nice looking car!!, question how is the side bolstering on the front seats as compared to the m5 seats? Have not sat in m550 seats , the m5 seats are fabulous to me.
