No problem, i freaked out at first too and emailed my guy and he said just let the system update. As for production, it might take a few weeks...My order went in 1/31 and has a week 11 build. So thats about 3 weeks #111, 2 weeks 112 and then finally 150...

I was looking all over for the number to call so may want to add that it to original post:

1-800-831-1117

alprld · 02-12-2008, 06:16 PM

I placed my order on 1/26 and started using the Owners Circle. I found calling the customer service number 1-800-831-1117 gave me far more info. All you need is either the production number or the vin when you call. The C/S number follows the production code numbers far mor detail...

Legen_wait for it_dary · 02-14-2008, 07:50 PM

I just called the 1800 number and spoke to a Jared. He told me my car is currently in the paint shop and should be completed by the 16th or 17th. I received my production on 2/8/08 and didn't order 19" wheels or DCT. Hopefully this helps someone with their timeline.

man my car has been waiting for a ship for a week now!!

Jack28 · 03-10-2008, 07:30 PM

Congrats man!......Cant wait to see the 196 myself.... I Remember when I Pre-ordered my E46 M3.. I waited 2 Months for it... I check Owners Circle everyday to see where my car was!

Shade · 03-30-2008, 09:09 PM

is it possible to have a status 112 but no confirmed production date? my dealer told me the status just turn to 112 last week. so when will i expect to get production started?

or shd i just call BMW NA and ask a rep.

Yes, it is not "confirmed". Have your CA give you a Vehicle Inquiry report. There should be a date next to "Req.Prod.:". Mine said 2006/02/06, which means Week 6 February production. Mine was completed 2/5.

Shade · 03-30-2008, 09:46 PM

yeah. he printed out the report and theres no req. Prod. Date....

theres a Act.Prod.Date: but theres nothing in there. i kinda panic because i dont want to wait forever lol

Did your order 19s or DCT? Those could delay getting even an estimated date.

WCH · 03-30-2008, 09:53 PM

It seems that they are catching up. I ordered a coupe with M-DCT and 19" wheels and started with a week 19 date (order placed on 2/21/08). This went to week 15, then 14 over the next two weeks. I didn't check for about a week and half and then my car was already in production status 151 and is due to be completed tomorrow (3/31). Thus it was actually built in week 12/13 production.

ShadeM3 - my advice is to check again this week. You are likely to get a date but don't be surprised if it moves up. This is important if you are contemplating any changes in your order. I was all set but would have missed the lock-in date if I had been waffling between options.

yes, i ordered the 19" and DCT. =)

WCH- thanks for the advise i am going to check again this week. Seriously i think the waiting is killing everyone.

bmwprince4life · 04-10-2008, 07:28 PM

PISSING ME OFF! called bmw usa and they told me they dont use numbers anymore to tell me what production code # im at right now! why is that? who do you guys talk to on phone and next time ima ask to talk to them lol

BMWMB · 06-03-2008, 01:57 PM

Last week my E93 M3 had production status 155. It means the production is completed. What time is now between this status and delivery ?

lincoln · 01-13-2009, 08:45 PM

Mine just went from ordered to production... anxiety begins.

I ordered mine on the 29 of Dec. and my CA told me today that I was still status 1 and would have to wait a little longer before I can begin tracking. Does this seem reasonable? What has been your experience thus far?

I placed my order Jan. 6th. I think the first time I checked the website was a few days later and it was on there. Even now, after a week, it shows up, but with wrong specs. I was going to wait another day or so before emailing my CA. From what I was told is that each dealerships have certain priority slots and depending on when they submit yours, is when you go in the line.

With that being said, a quick phone call should alleviate any of your concerns. It's hard waiting though... but the weather in WA is bad and I still want to do some spring cleaning in my garage before it comes so it's ok timing with me.

I was under the impression that - well at least one used to be - buyers were able to check their car's status via bmwusa.com or similar. No dice on this, huh?

Edit: I just saw the 1-800 above. But then another posted that bmw was not giving out info - guess I will have to find out myself ...

The BMW USA website is behind and I use the 1-800 number. Seems to be real time and you can track it as much as you want (at least twice a day for me

You can talk to a representative if you want to on this number.
Good luck !

Thx.

I tried the 1-800 and got the msg (great!) that the production query was down due to maintenance - damn

But at least I know where to go for info which is cool.

terry · 03-22-2009, 11:09 AM

Yes it looks like their system is down today for maintenance.
Try tomorrow it will probably be back up !

03SG///M3 · 05-18-2009, 03:33 PM

Is there a link from BMWUSA where i put in my production number to get a status on my production? I looked on the website and can't find it. I have signed up through the owners section of the webite.
