“Customization is essential to the new BMW X3.

Using seven cameras in BMW’s South Carolina plant, BMW deliver X3 customers with video that tracks their vehicle through the various stages of final assembly. The video does not have an expiration date, giving consumers round-the-clock access to the assembly footage, and the video can also be downloaded and shared with interested friends and family members.

Available this month, the new BMW X3 builds on the success of its first generation counterpart, offering drivers increased space, functionality, efficiency and comfort. The first BMW X model to be equipped with electro-mechanical power steering as standard equipment, the vehicle also offers owners the option of Dynamic Driving Control and BMW ConnectedDrive driver assistance systems.

I have that account and entered my VIN, even tested with the production number, but my car, that should be delivered in the beginning of April, could not be found. Is it only for American customers?

I just watched the video of my new X3 being built. It's pretty cool to see some of the processes and innovation used in building the vehicle. Very high tech and very efficient. It's sitting at the transportation area getting ready to be put on a vehicle carrier. With any luck I'll pick it up in the next 7-10 days or so.

Can't wait!!!!!

Thanks for the link to the video - that is an amazing process. I was somewhat surprised that there are no people involved in some of the steps. BTW, I like the new X3's looks.
