So when do you expect delivery?

My M3 is planned to be in production by the end of May. I was told delivery at the soonest, September.

That actually sounds very long... they might want to test drive the car themselves for a months though

"/ /M sa" is correct, you should get your car late July/early August. It should take 6-8 weeks once production starts

What I'm assuming is my dealer is reading the wrong numbers. They're probably reading the requested production week and not the actual. Seeing as they just placed my order last week..

They also told me they can't give me a production number until my car is actually in production, is that true? I feel I should still be able to get one.. seeing as everyone around here can check up on whether their car is in 111 or 112.

Got a production number while it was still 047 status - ask for a copy of the vehicle inquiry report.

I love you calendar, I have one just like it on the wall. Come to the regional forums, let's start a meet planning, and let's go absolutely insane in August, which starts in 3 days.

Must have been impacted by a "bad" robot! Things can happen that require correction in assembly. That length of time is not typical.
