2021 M550i Carbon Black Metallic Tracking
Hi everyone. I've enjoyed reading other tracking threads and they are helpful. So, I thought I'd start my own. It's scheduled for week 11 although I am not sure if that's when production is supposed to begin or when it's supposed to end. I ordered the following:
2021 M550i xDrive Sedan - Shadowline - Carbon Black Metallic - 19" M Y-spoke jet black wheels, style 845M with all-season run-flat tires - Black dakota - Aluminum Rhombicle Smoke Grey Trim with Pearl Chrome Accent - Heated Steering Wheel Progress so far: - 2/9: ORDER RECEIVED - 2/17: SCHEDULED FOR PRODUCTION |

I agree. Carbon Black is pretty unique. I don't know why people get Black Sapphire. Carbon Black is just Black Sapphire with some blue in it, which makes Carbon Black seem unique and special.

Yeah usually only takes a week or 2 once it's in production. It's the ship ride that takes 3-5 weeks.

Nice. I thought I was the only one that ordered a car basically stripped. I think the blue calipers look great.
One of my past cars was carbon black. It's a great color, very unique and looks fabulous when polished.

The salesperson I was talking to said that each dealership could only order 5 M/M performance cars each yearly quarter. I'm unsure if that is per M model or for all M models combined.

I don't really care about all of the creature comforts with the added packages. I have a 2019 Corvette and the only options I cared about were the exhaust and black wheels. I really can't wait to get this car.

I too had a C7, which had only the active exhaust and the ugly silver wheels, which I actually prefer. I kinda wish I'd kept it, but the amount of grunting required for me to get in and out of it was embarrassing.

They tell you the week you end production, not start.

That's awesome and it looks good. Did the tracking website suddenly jump to paint booth or did it take the normal progression? I'm hoping mine suddenly updates to say it's in production.
Also, when did you place your order and when did it go to scheduled for production? |
