Once you have an account just log into it and under "MY Account" click on "Add or Remove a Vehicle". You can use a production number of VIN.

Thank you Greg although I don't see a status code such as status 112.

Unfortunately, you cannot get detailed status online. Best is to have your client advisor check on their system with a "Vehicle Inquiry" for you occasionally. You can also get more current information by calling BMWUSA, though I don't think they give you the detailed production steps.

So, 112 means 2 weeks... till start build or what? I don't get... Would someone care to explain what it means when a M3 has 112 code?
Thanks

I got a 111 code from BMW of North America.

If your car is 112, can any aspect of your order not be changed?

I was at the dealer today and spoke w/ my CA. We pulled my car up on the computer and it had 112 status. I told him I was thinking of switching to fox red. His reply was that some changes can't be made while a car is 112. From discussions with the guy he clearly doesn't know as much about bmws or the ordering process, but, I'm curious if there is any truth to what he said. (i.e. any truth to the assertion that some aspects of your order can't be changed once a car is 112 - and what aspects those are)????

edit: after doing more research it appears you can change everything in status 112 but the CA might have gotten the idea because cars don't stay at 112 very long..

On my early production '08 car, it was about 3 weeks from status 112 to 151 (VIN issued) and car was completed 1 week later.
