Cause for alarm?

wcw · 07-28-2015, 08:03 PM

My CA emailed me the Vehicle Inquiry Report with the production number on it today. So I sign up on BMW's site as per another thread so I can start to follow it along, but then I notice when it's trying to add it to my "new vehicles" it shows it as Mineral White NOT Mineral Grey. I tried it a couple more times in case I got the production # wrong. What's confusing is it still shows In the details Mineral Grey (B39) on the report. I'd originally planned to order the mineral white, but changed it with my CA before he ever submitted the order...is this just a fluke or will it be caught/corrected to match the details on the report?

Any ideas? Obviously I just fired off an email asking him about it a minute ago. Thought of you guys who've much more knowledge about this stuff than I do.

Cheers!

It should correct in the next few days. I ordered Tanzanite but when I got the production number and added it to BMW tracking it showed a different colors and then eventually updated to Tanzanite.

It takes a bit for the picture to update. What matters is what's on the inquiry report page.

My Mineral Gray M4 was originally shown as mineral white as well. It wouldn't hurt to look over the paperwork you were given just to confirm but you should be fine and it will update sometime soon.

Everything is fine. To hold their allocation dealers usually have a car there. Once ur order is placed and gets ready to be produced it will change.

I ordered YAS and mine was showing alpine white up until it went into production.

My order originally showed as SS then updated to MW once in production. This seems like a very common bug, so nothing to worry about.

Thank all of you for your replies. Definitely alleviated my anxiety!

Don't worry. I ordered an F80 Mineral Grey and it showed up as a Sahkir Coupe. I was like WOW that's quite the polar opposite. But it corrected after a few days.
