At least in the Norther California area none of the dealers has any allocations for the Z4 manual.
I’ve called around the New England and no allocations to be found… I’m still waiting on my normal dealer to come through.

Per the other post on here, there are 6 months worth of 047 orders awaiting allocations, nationwide. Seems according to multiple posts, calling around isn't going to get you anywhere in the short term.

Wow my car skipped and went from "Exterior body assembly beings" all the way to "Quality Check". At this rate, I'm guessing I'm looking at June for delivery.

If you’re west coast, probably not. I put my order in in January. Assembly completed end of March. Won’t be at the port of LA until June 5th.

Maybe or maybe not , my car finished production 10 days back and still waiting for carrier to be transported to the port , i guess this is the part that takes the longest , the shipment of the car

I expect that will be the new norm for a while. The mess in Baltimore screwed up the entire trucking network on the east coast. Trucks have to haul stuff longer distances and that just reduces the availability of trucks across the board. Expect longer waits for shipment.

Yeah, wasn't expecting VPC to take 5 days. CA just called re: PCD dates. 5/16 is the earliest they have available. I asked for 5/24 or 5/17. Can't come soon enough!

Edit: Just confirmed 5/24 with PCD. It's going to be an excellent Memorial Day weekend!

My deliveries over the years were there for a week or so, but I bet you’re right. Although I’ve seen others’ cars arrive in Baltimore so not sure it’s creating more volume for BMW- just Mercedes and Kia/Hyundai etc

Congratulations. It's a great time. BTW, your car will sit in Brunswick for a couple more weeks. They won't ship to the PC until about 2 weeks ahead of your delivery.

This seems to be a tracking thread of sorts. If others agree we could start one that's more official. Weigh in and if there's a few yays I'll do so.

Checked my status today, and after awaiting carrier assignment for a week or two it jumped past being discharged form the factory and now says it's awaiting at the port.

Anyone else in the same spot? I was about to say the same boat but will save that pun for when our cares are actually shipped.

Bummer. And odd. I notice stuff jumps on that tracking site, you get nothing for a while then it's a lot farther along. Hopefully yours has actually progressed and someone just hasn't gotten around to updating the latest info into some database.

After 20 days Awaiting Carrier Assignment my car is At the Port as of today. Maybe we will be on the same Vehicle Carrier. I second starting a tracking thread.
