Congrats! Wow, 2 - 3 weeks! I ordered my X5 3.0si (Space Gray/Black Nevada) last Wednesday and the dealer said it won't be in until January next year.

I'm in California, maybe that explains the longer wait time ...

So, first of all, I dont trust their "2-3 weeks"... I am being realistic of their willingness to tell me just about anything to earn my business. I would be pleasantly surprised if it will, in fact, take 2-3 weeks.

And yes, California takes longer because they need to be sent, most likely by rail, across the country.

I went thru a similar waiting period 3 years ago with the current ride - 05 Ody. People in CA had to wait, back then, much longer.

i placed my order just a little over a week ago...(i waited till after Nov 2nd to make sure i had the autotailgate option)

i have production number, VIN # and it's scheduled for build this week... i'm told two weeks from now and it should be getting delivered to dealer.... we'll see...

they must be kranking them out!! read somewhere online that the X5s were in large demands and they were building them in larger numbers per week compared to last year!!

not sure if that's a good thing!!

but it still looks like a good Christmas for me!!!

Great ! How many days did it take for you, once you had the production number, to learn the VIN # ? Are you using the BMW Owner's Circle to track it ?

the owner's circle is always behind... i got prod # a few days after placing order...

VIN # popped up on owner's circle about a week after placing order...but it only said 'scheduled for production'

i called the hotline and was told it was a week 47 build... which is this week.. and it should take two weeks from that to dealer...

we'll see...

i already have a laundry list of add-ons that my dealer will install.. can't wait!

In my case, I was able to see the VIN # in oc.bmwusa.com two days after I placed my order. The dealer got me a copy of the order with the production number. Right now the status is still "Scheduled for Production".

Finally built !!!

So it has been built as of Wednesday, passed QA checks and now awaiting transportation

That came from calling the 800 number, voice response system (not a live operator), which means it is at least 1-3 days behind...

Looks like there is a chance to get it before the end of next week... Keeping my fingers crossed (please no snow storms in North East !!!! )
