Correct. Looks like they discontinued the option.

She's in the booth and I'm starting to get giddy.

Also ordered some staggered HRE FlowForm FF10 wheels in Tarmac matte black finish. They appear to be a popular wheel for Beemers but they do look cool.

G30M550i · 07-27-2022, 10:26 AM

She's moving along now. Hopefully it gets on a boat sooner than later.

G30M550i · 07-29-2022, 10:56 AM

Headed to the port as of yesterday.

BMW012 · 07-29-2022, 12:38 PM

Germany.

G30M550i · 08-01-2022, 11:43 AM

She's at the Bremerhaven Port...Now the real wait begins.

I'm at port too. So perhaps same ship. Lets pray shipping issues are resolved and we launch within a reasonable time.

Assuming they get boarded onto a ship soon, I think we'll be looking at sometime in September for delivery. From Bremerhaven Port to Port of Baltimore is 4585 nautical miles with an average of 19 days at sea. Then there is the customs check time and truck delivery time. It's going to be a long month...

G30M550i · 08-11-2022, 09:18 AM

Still at the port since 8/1/22.

According to BMW Genius, "AT THE PORT" can last anywhere from 2-4 weeks.

BMW012 · 08-11-2022, 10:58 AM

mine since july 4th lol

bimmer568 · 08-11-2022, 12:01 PM

Bunch of east coast bound WW vessels depart 8/21-8/26 so we may be on those.

BMW012 · 08-12-2022, 02:30 PM

just updated today to - In Transit!

G30M550i · 08-29-2022, 06:54 AM

My 550 has updated to in transit! I’ll need to check with BMW Genius later today to get the details.

G30M550i · 08-29-2022, 12:20 PM

My 2023 M550i is on a ship called "The Brooklands" and is scheduled to port in Baltimore on 9/8/22. Light at the end of the tunnel.

BMW012 · 08-29-2022, 03:53 PM

lol my status was "in transit" since August 12th, now it just changed to "at the port". But looking at the tracker, it looks like it took a step backwards? I don't think it means, it made it to the destination's port...

I feel like they’re just messing with you at this point.

Ah this was a helpful post to find. I'm just about to put in an order for a 2023 M550i myself. Was looking at M5s but found that the M550i has plenty of performance but also is a more comfortable daily driver.

el19 · 09-01-2022, 05:45 PM

I lucked into a new 22' M550i that was at that port. The manager who ordered it couldn't get it any longer. I placed the deposit Aug 5 and picked it up Aug 20. Traded in my 17' A7 Competition for it and I couldn't be happier. The balance of comfort, features, and power is a greay package. My S63 is jealous 😂 OP you're going to be very pleased with your pick up.

chuckles1313 · 09-02-2022, 08:01 AM

I've read the 2023 M550i comes with iDrive 7.0. Does anybody know how that version works with the live cockpit view and apple car play? Like if I do navigation apps on my iPhone (google maps) does that still up on the cockpit view or do you have to use the BMW built in navigation for that to work?

I might be wrong (since I had a 2020 M340i but it's still iDrive7) but I don't think google maps on iPhone will show up in cockpit or HUD.
