Well on the 11th it went from order to in production... Paint is part of production, so I don't think they are going to say it's in paint, although they did on the phone...

Good thread for production status... Looks like Paint is the third step in production, followed by Entry Assembly, Assembly and Assembly finish/quality control... So Yours may be ahead of mine...

I doubt it because if the estimate is correct my car did not even begin the process yet.

Possibly... IF they said yours will be done by the 24th, then your's is probably 4 days behind mine... But most likely ours will be shipped around the same time... Great, I can't get mine till yours is done. j/k

My Vehicle production is complete, waiting to be released to the carrier...
Hate to say this, but I hope it doesn't get here before I do the ultimate driving event at BMW of Manhattan this weekend... I could use that extra grand for a downpayment...

After body work, comes paint shop, and then waiting release to the carrier... so your a couple steps behind mine...

Car was released to the carrier and is awaiting transportation to the port of exit...

My X5 might be here next week at this rate... That would be awesome

bmwusa.com shows the car is at the preparation center (assuming that's spartanburg's prep center, or could be NJ prep center)

1800 number says the car has been released to the carrier and is awaiting transportation.

Which is it... LOL... the anticipation is killiing me

Update:

BMWUSA.com shows the car is at my dealer center, while the 1800 number says it's awaiting transportation... Called my dealer, waiting for the manager I worked with to call me back...

LOL... Good for you... I'm still getting mixed answers...
1800: Your vehicle is in transit, call your BMW Center for more details
BMWUSA.com : Your Vehicle is at your BMW Center

Of course, no one has called me back from my center, going to try again at 9 or 10am...

Prep Center is the VPC in Spartanburg, SC... So what does the 1800 number say? Same thing? or something else...

800 number says released to carrier but online it says prep center and it's the second to last step before it gets to the dealer?
