You don't have a VIN yet?

Scheduled cars are up to VIN VD36339 now. Week 44 ends on nov. 3, so with tomorrow, that is 13 days until our cars are built, at the latest, so 13x 15 per day = 195 + 2 Saturdays (10 cars) = 205. 205+186= 391. 391-339= 52. We should get our VINs on Monday at the latest.

Now I have my VIN. and you cacluation was very close haha mine is at VD36340s

I have been tracking the number of cars went production and seems that BMW is making little more than average (15 cars) that we discussed.

Oct-17 (Tue): VD36161 - VD36186 = 26 cars made
Oct-18 (Wed): VD36187 - VD36209 = 23 cars made
Oct-19 (Thr): VD36210 - VD36225 = 16 cars made
Oct-20 (Fri): VD36226 - VD36238 = 13 cars made
Oct-21 (Sat): VD36239 - VD36247 = 9 cars made
Oct-22 (Sun): No Production
Oct-23 (Mon): VD36248 - VD36269 = 22 cars made
Oct-24 (Tue): VD36270 - VD36289 = 20 cars made

Thinking mine will be probably, if I am lucky, finish its production on this Friday or Saturday.. Lastest, next week Monday.

Can't wait!

If anyone need CN rail tracking, I have the access so PM me if you need the tracking.

Thanks for this info. I'm week 43 VD3633x. What is CN rail tracking? This is my first time ordering a car and despite having gone over the tracking sticky, I still feel very ignorant in the whole process but doing the best I can to track without frequently contacting my CA.

CN is the Canadian National Railway company that moves international ocean freights (There is another company called CP - Canadian Pacific). All BMW cars destined to East Coast of Canada arrives at Halifax port (except those vehicle production at US).

When the vehicle discharges at the port and it will be moving to rail terminal closest to the destination city by using CN railcars.
Usually ppl struggle tracking their cars when it comes through this route, so I am just trying to help those Canadians wants to track that blank period where no one can do unless have access to CN website with their account opened.

I guess you're not concerned since you're in Oregon

Like alscks0414 said, it's a Canadian thing. But you are lucky, you can track your car on the BMW website

I got a mybmw account over the weekend. I also went on all the noted shipping websites from another thread and listed all the ships leaving Bremerhaven over the next few weeks and going to Hueneme. Hoping for delivery week of December 4 but CA said might be later.

Well... Canadians are lazy (especially BMW Canada) and they are taking forever to implement the same MyBMW system of tracking orders as USA in here.. Ive heard that they were trying to get it done this year but it definitely does not look to bring any difference.

Only way to track for Canadians are using other sources of website +++ calling and bothering SA or BMW Genius call center agents..
Would be very nice to have something to see easy as US
