I got a production number in early March. By the time I checked through the BMW website it was already at status 112. It was moving at a normal pace and got stopped in assembly several weeks due to the factory closing for Easter. The car was finished and rolled off the assembly line April 14. Within 2 days it was transported and sitting at the port waiting for a boat.
And that's the status it's still at. I called genius about a week and a half ago to which they told me there were no holds or custom issues with it, but they didn't have a ship out date for it. We're going on 6 weeks past completion date and I have no idea if the car is even on a boat. Has anyone had this happen before? Is there a possibility it missed a scan while being loaded on the boat and no one knows where it is until it reaches the port? I'm ready to pull my hair out because I have now been waiting six months total for this car since putting my order in and knowing that it's so close but no one seems to know where the hell it is is driving me mad. 
Does anyone have any insight on how to possibly get more information? If I don't know something by next week I think I might just show up to the dealer and ask for the GM  |
FYI my F80 has been doing the same thing as well, completed production April 4th and finally changed to handed over to carrier or assigned carrier on May 14th. So yeah, it was sitting at the plant after production for over a month and now states it's still in assigned carrier and hasn't moved to the transport phase or arrived at the port, so I'm not sure what's up either. I contacted everyone and nobody seems to know what the hold up is, my dealer sent me a list of ships leaving in June and said it's supposed to leave on June 3rd but I have a feeling it's just a guess since it's not even at the port yet. Let me know if you want that list if yours is shipping to the west coast.
