Glad to hear that. I really am. I can imagine how hard it would be to be without.
Neil's yelling do the trick?

So, it's going to be delivered to the dealer before end of March?

Probably before the end of February if it is en route. Ship trip takes about 4 weeks.

Yep, Neil's yelling did the trick. The woman helping at South Bay also helped a good deal.

It's supposed to be here in SoCal within the next three weeks.

That still doesn't mean he'll get it before the launch. Just means it'll be at the dealership.

The car will be here in the next couple of weeks, but I guess that doesn't mean I'll have the car in my possession sadly.

Well, that is still a different story from what we have been hearing, where no dealers will be getting any cars before the end of March.
If it sits on your dealer's lot, that is something new.

Not a chance. If I already signed the papers denoting that the car was mine and it was going to be sitting on the dealer's lot for a month, I'd rent a tow truck. Sneak in at night, tow it to my house and then figure out some way to acquire keys for it. It wouldn't be stolen because it's your car afterall.

If they are serious about the march thing, maybe it will get held up in transport for a while.

it most likely will, but BMW has thrown out some surprises with this launch. So who knows until someone actually has the car in their possession.

I just spoke with BMW customer service, and they said the tentative launch date is March 8. No mention of March 29. He also said they hold back all their new cars until an official launch date, so apparently this is no different.

By watching the Top Gear review over and over. It's my exact color combo (Space Grey/Fox Red Novillo) so it helps pass the time.

Launch date

As I posted in another thread, the March 8 date was confirmed by email from BMWNA to me today. Great news for you! Not sure that mine will be here that soon unless it goes into production soon.
