For what it is worth, my car hit the paint shop on a Thursday (10/1) and didn't hit the next step until the following Tuesday (10/5). The car typically sits for a little as they literally let the paint dry before they move to the next phase. That said, once it moves ... it moves quickly.

Also, I'm assuming since I've not seen any, that the 2021 M550i in the US doesn't get the M strip seat belts they get in the UK right? A man can only dream... |

And, in fact, I've even seen some M cars (like a relative's X3M comp) that don't even have the M seatbelts.

Just kidding. No I am in the same scenario -- has said in the Paint Booth since last week too with the same 11/11 finish date being stated. I last looked maybe 5-6 hours ago. I tried to check a few times just now but it seems the app is messed up. Nothing comes up once I login and try to look at My Garage. I hit My Garage, get sent over to the SSO login, and when it tries to send me back to My Garage it never comes up. Same issue on mobile as my computer at the moment. :-O We're sorry. An error occurred and My BMW Garage is unavailable at this time. Please try again later or visit BMWUSA.com. Ok update.. loading now. Still @ the paint booth. |

Wow.. since I am an insomniac sometimes... I just logged in at 4am to check the update since Quality Check. I guess I blinked and... skipped right to Awaiting carrier assignment. Woo hoo!

2021 M550i Dark Graphite Black Nappa Shadow line 20" 846M Fine line open pore ash wood Exec DAP Parking Asst. Bower Wilkins I am very excited! My first BMW. I wanted something that flew under the radar but could still hand out some adrenaline. I was looking at the F90, but just couldn't do another aggressive bucket seat car. My lower back can't handle another "bath tub" seat.

It's showing as "At the Port" now, so it was around 2 days (which makes sense, Germany is not as big - source: I'm German ).
