2013 X5 50i My Build Production Status Timeline

Hey guys. I figured this might be helpful for anyone else ordering a new truck from Spartanburg to the Northeast Tri-State area or anyone custom ordering in general. Here is an exact break down on my order production status history. I called up the 1800 Number and had a combination of my dealer email me for this information:

Build = 2013 X5 50i M Sport M Perfomance
BMW Dealer = Westbury, NY Long Island

1.) October 9th 2:00PM Order Placed. Depost Left.

2.) October 9th 6:00PM Email Received from Dealer with Production Number.

3.) October 11th 12:00PM Entered Production
"1-800-Number states Expected End of Production of Oct 19th."

4.) October 12th Dealer Emailed Me my VIN Number.

5.) October 15th Entered Body Shop

6.) October 17th Entered Paint Shop

7.) October 18th Vehicle Released to Carrier Awaiting Port of Call/?? Port of Exit? lol

8.) That is where I currently sit. I called my dealer on October 18th once the car was released to carrier and he gave me an estimated Delivery to Dealer date of October 25th.

So from placing the order to supposedly taking delivery it should take approximately 2 to 3 weeks from Carolina to New York/Long Island. It was produced MUCH MUCH faster than I ever imagined. I was expecting 2 months minimum. The dealer even told me 4 to 6 weeks but I assume that is what they are supposed to tell everyone from Spartanburg.
I will keep you posted for when I receive the truck.


Very excited right now!

Dom

Quick Question. Did anyone ever receive a custom build with any missing/wrong options or any problems when picking the truck up? How rare is that?
Thanks guys!
Dom
