My car is coming to Galveston, and I assume it will be on the Arc Independence leaving Bremerhaven on 3/31. That boat is hitting Baltimore, Brunswick and Galveston.

Will be hard to miss the GT4 if you rarely drive it! The Z4 will fly a little more under the radar compared to the GT4, and if that gets you out driving it more often that is a win.

I’m at my dealer and in the system it states Order Bank Status 047. Does that mean no allocation yet? My CA is new and is checking. Thanks.

Well, guess it means I don’t have an allocation. My CA called me a few weeks back and said I was in production. I told him I’m going to be calling other dealers. Dang!!!

Folks, regarding allocations this was posted in the General BMW News and Cars Discussion forum by a dealer who has always been extremely helpful. Side note on allocations for everyone. Always remember if you do in fact have a allocation you will get a production number right away. If you are not presented one that means you do not have an allocation. https://g29.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...58&postcount=5 |

That doesn't include the ADM and possibly a broker fee. Some large dealerships in FL haven't gotten a single GTS allocation this year.

There MAY be batching of paint, they might do a run of one color then move to the next? No idea if it's more SMED (single minute exchange of die as a concept) set up for rapid change over or if they actually batch it. But even if it's batched, then a frozen color might (might) be less popular and not done as often. I do still think it wouldn't be several months though. |

It’s like a step down from the individual options, but a step up from the normal ones. My wife was looking at an X3 in Aventurine Red, and it had the same disclaimer and we were told something similar about it taking longer. |

As my Z4 is ready to head toward the port I’ve been looking for a good summary of how to track a car to the port, onto a ship, and thru to dealer delivery. This post from 2015 still appears to be the best resource. Does anyone know of a post / thread that is more up-to-date or accurate than this one? Thanks
