My Tanzanite F83 has been in "Production Begins" for two weeks. I called BMW Genius several times and was originally told production would end June 18th and now they are telling me June 20th.

My production completion was always slated at June 23rd. It still is.

However, I just called the genius and he mentioned there seems to be a hold on the car. He doesn't know if it has done anything since May 30th, he claims production finish on June 23 is still possible. I should have an update in a day or two, but I'm not sure if that is actually going to happen.

My build was sitting in production begins since may 22nd. Only on Tuesday of this week did it change to assembly begins. now it's in the paint booth. I called genius on Monday and they said for sure June 15th.. which seems to be case.

To those with TB M3s coming to the Port of Baltimore check your tracking because as of today you're probably on a boat. At least I am!

captainaudio · 06-15-2018, 12:10 PM

As of today my status is "In the paint booth"

vinlo · 06-18-2018, 08:40 AM

Also at the port. Checked the boat schedules from the tracking thread and there is a boat that leaves today that will get to California on July 19th for potential west coast orders.
