09 X6 Delayed

My 09 X6 50i has been at the VDC ready to be shipped for 8 days. Dealer nor BMWNA can give me an answer as to why it has not been shipped or when it will be. I am located in Tx.

Assume by BMWNA you mean the 800 number , they have a rep for being pretty good. maybe someone here that understands the internal BMW workings can weigh in.

On a humorous note if it takes much longer then it will be a 2010 model

My Dad's X6 was "released to the carrier," today. We're also in Texas.

Maybe they crashed yours and need to buy time to fix it? Ok, sorry, that was evil.

Just received a call and was told no 09 X6 or X5s have been released. BMW wants to clear out more 08 cars before they release the 09s to carriers.

A little evil,but there is maybe something..two friends of mine ordered 2 x6 at same day and both left America with same ship..that was end of August..one has recived his car after a month,and another still waiting...
answer from bmw central was that maybe alloys are scretch during the transport,but they dont know where is the car...now that is strange too!

The fact that they don't know where the car is does seem odd. I mean if it hasn't been delivered it's still BMW's car , would think they would want to know where "their" car is.

i guess they know where is the car,iand i think that car is damaged during the transport,but BMW does not want to admit that...probably they will deliver the car when they fix it...it wont be the first time.

More than likely the GM took the car for a joy ride. So it takes time to get the odometer rolled back.

Im in NJ, somehwhat same deal. My car has been showing up as being at the prep center for 2 weeks. I called the salesman; he told me they have not yet released the '09s and it looks like they will start shipping them to the dealers mid next week (10/29). So hopefully we both will have them by Saturday 11/1.

I guess one can have all the news one wants,but in the end it's up to your BMW dealer and whether he's a wuss or an a-s-s kickr.

Did your salesman tell you that? If so, good for you!

My salesman is a slacker; zero communication unless I initiate it.
