The dealer wasn't untruthful about the priority, though they didn't have to do anything special to make that happen besides order the car for you - customer-ordered cars are "Priority 1" in BMW's ordering system and get priority over cars ordered for dealer stock. However, there's no special status that a dealer can assign to your car beyond that to get it delivered any faster. Essentially, because you ordered the car, BMW is building and delivering it as quickly as it can.

Figured as much. Here’s to hoping there will be no outstanding work orders in the car when it’s done being out together. LoL

Agree and as long as it fits in the model cycle of the plant. Switching between Supras and Zs gives some tricky timing.

Either of the highlighted dates will work. Obviously 7 Jul would be bestest. Doubt I'd make it on the ship arriving in Galveston on the 25th of June.

Called Genius line just to see if there were any outstanding work orders, missing parts, or anything that might hold up the delivery. SO FAR ... he said, "No outstanding work orders."

Thanks for posting this. Based on this information and you not having any outstanding service bulletins, you might get yours before me.

Have you gotten any inputs regarding your status? I thought yours was already on a boat on its way over.

I thought so too, but the Service Bulletin on the audio module delayed it.

Ugh……kick in the nads. Well… I’m still not out of the woods yet either. Seems things change with time. I’ll probably call again in a week or so just to make sure things are going smoothly or to stay informed.

Keep in mind, from my other post, that I was told it will be scheduled for a boat 2-3 weeks from arriving at port of embarkation.

You might want to slow down a little and wait til you have a few miles in it under your belt. Then you know what you want.
