Great choices and a pretty good deal. Summer can't come soon enough. I also ordered the 759i wheels. They really suit the M Sport G30 so well.

Same though it was a hard choice what with the roads here in SoCal. The Bluestone with M Sport and 20" just look so much more cleaner and aggressive.

Already in production. Didn't think it would happen that fast. Only solidified order on 3/09 and 3/11 it was in production with VIN #. Is it that unusual? The anticipation.... Last edited by RNemesisN63; 03-12-2019 at 10:11 PM.. Reason: added info |

Sounds like a great build. So glad I went for M Sport pkg. I wasn't planning to get it when I first started my build.

I was also surprised by how quickly mine went into production with VIN--ordered 3/4, in production 3/5. From reading through the forum I would have expected a longer wait. But once in production, I waited longer than I expected for actual assembly of the car--8 days from "in production" to exterior body assembly. The further this goes, the more antsy I seem to get

It all depends on how many allocations the dealer have, and when the next build date is. I ordered my car on the 30th of May last year, an it went into production on the 1st of June. |

Seems to be moving along nicely. As of yesterday exterior assembly has begun. Seems plausible I will receive it by early May. Being on the West Coast, I hope that's the case.

I am not upgrading the wheels (horrible roads in Seattle) and ceramic controls are not my thing. Instead I have added Parking Assistance and a space saver as I might go with non runflats in the future. Waiting to order as my current lease is not up until the end of July. Hopefully incentives will get a little better by then.

I hope so. Makes the most logical sense to not leave it sitting at port for another week which is when the next ships were scheduled to depart. Now I know how others have felt during this waiting game when I use to be like big deal

Hope it goes faster than mine for you! Mine finally got on the boat after sitting at the port for about 2 weeks. I think it missed like 5 or 6 boats.

Honestly though, from what I have seen on here, depending on where your car is built, the 540i usually moves pretty quick. My fingers are crossed for you! Once it gets on the ship I think it's less agonizing because you can track it daily and it's not a black box anymore like the factory process.

Got the word it's on a ship headed this way. Feel like I can relax a little now that I know it's on the way but probably won't be the case
