Do you guys know how long your timeline was after reaching the port to completing the VPC process and getting a carrier assignment?
Here’s an update from my previous post. My dealer just texted me to say that the car was actually put on the carrier and left the VPC yesterday and should be at the dealership today or tomorrow.
So the information BMW Genius gave me yesterday was not correct.
(They said it was scheduled to leave on Wednesday, arriving Friday).
I can imagine how you felt when dealer said you should get your car today or tomorrow!

I stopped wasting my time with BMW genious. Best option is to go with dealer on information.

My car reached Baltimore port last night, hopefully the process doesn't take to long. Was really hoping to get my car by this weekend.

Congrats once again. Like always, we will be waiting to see pics

Thanks! I actually just updated my post. The car arrived at the dealership this morning! I won’t be able to pick it up for a day or two as I am out of town.
Will post pics in a few days.

Mines back in transit so should be at dealership tomorrow. I've been finding out all this info on my own which I do like being in the loop. Only disappoint this whole journey is not so much communication on my CAs part. I know they stay pretty busy especially my guy pushes a lot of cars but waiting a week or more or at all for a reply kinda sucks. Usually have to reach out again. Already reached out last week letting him know that I know the car will be there this week and asking for a pick up this weekend. No reply. Anyone else experience this during their process?

All right! Not too much longer, I hope.
I also had issues with communication from my first CA (who subsequently left the dealership)--the second one was better but there still seemed to be some lag--per the BMW website, my car arrived at the dealership 4/25, but when I spoke to my CA this week, he stated that was incorrect, and they received the car later. No matter what, you should receive fairly prompt responses to your questions--it's tough at the end of the month when they are trying to meet their monthly targets, so maybe now things will improve.

Thanks, turns out my guy is preparing for a trip for the company so was on the to-do list before leaving. Car is in and picking up Saturday Plus new incentive came out so was able to knock off even more was stoked on that.

That mocha goes so well with the exterior color! I just can't wait to get my car after looking at these pics!!

What was the new incentive for this month? Wonder if I would be able to get it also. So far I already got 1500 lease incentive and 2000 for loyalty

Yes it’s a great color combo!

As far as the incentive for this month, I am not sure what it is. I ordered the car in February, so every month since then my CA has been checking on new incentives and applying them as they came.

The new ones could be the same loyalty or lease incentives you already have, but a greater amount. Until you take delivery of the car, they should give you whichever incentives are the best. In other words, if the programs get worse, you will be locked in to your previous rates and rebates. If they get better, they will give you the newer, better deals.

Between my order and delivery dates, I gained an additional $2500 in incentives.

I hope you get your car soon!

Also the MF changed from 0.00188 to 0.00165!

I am so glad you brought this up, I'm not sure if they would have went out if their way to mention the change

Excellent! Make sure to ask them again on the day you take delivery to see if there are any changes. It seems that the changes are with the new month, but you never know.

True. I wash shocked when my guy told me there was a new incentive of 3k so that brought it to $6500 in rebate/incentive. Doubly stoked on the .00165 MF vs. the .00177 from previous months.

Gorgeous. Congrats again. Not so patiently waiting for Saturday. Dealer sent me a teaser shot did nothing to calm the anxiety

Interesting.... yet on the sticky, the admin posted that rates are unchanged from April... yet several of y'all have gotten lower rates?? Will definitely be asking my dealer...

I would. My guy was quick to tell me about the deal and how surprised he was that BMW was offering that much incentive along with the MF. Wonder if they're trying to push models with LCIs on the horizon.
