Anyone know when does the VIN# become available? Is it before production starts, at start, during or end of production?

ksoze · 03-01-2011, 01:06 PM

Generally at 150 status, right before production starts. Will be on dealers Vehicle Inquiry Report when it hits 150.

The system is all jacked up as of late. TxFeatFan's status tells him he's at the port waiting for a vessel. Where is he truly? Car's about to be transferred from the VPC to the Performance Center! Believe that!

You know what they say, "Hell hath no fury...". And hell, this one has been used and abused by countless guys. It was only a matter of time...

I have seen CS on the CF trim on a IND order and it looked great (Black with red CS). Not sure if the part of the standard CS IND or extra.

Given the fact that she's telling me that now I am at the port waiting for a vessel too, I think I might join you in the stabbing!!

You're kidding, right?
Is it also shown for sale on the NW BMW website?
It must be a coding issue with the phone system. Mr. David will probably send you a status soon!

Mine will be a good test. Website status should advance to "At your BMW Center" today or tomorrow, if our calculations are correct.

I don't understand why the Automated Phone Lady has jilted me. I call her EVERY day, sometimes TWICE a day. I think maybe her Mom has gotten involved somehow.

It could also be a hormone thing.

OK, here's the part where they kick me out of this thread:

My BMW "source" in South Carolina says that my M3 was delivered to the Performance Center yesterday, exactly as scheduled (two weeks before PCD).
