Now 'Scheduled for Production'!!! Question...

I feel like a kid on Christmas morning. The status changed from 'On Order' to 'Scheduled for Production' this afternoon. For those of you who have tracked your car step-by-step on the Owner's Circle site, about how long did yours take to move from one status to the next? I know it can vary a lot, but I'm curious about some recent orders. Much appreciated!

Scheduled for Production > Awaiting Transport

Awaiting Transport > En Route

En Route > At Prep Center

At Prep Center > At the Dealer
(mine would be going from South Carolina (I think?) to Dallas)

Hi and welcome! Congrats on the new baby... and yes, it is quite exciting to track them. The OC (Owners Circle) information is generally a couple of days behind. When your status is scheduled for production, it means that they will be building your car within a week or so. After that, it takes a train ride to the port of Bremerhaven and waits for a ship. This can take a week or so too (less if you're lucky). Figure two weeks on the water, another week at the VPC, then the truck ride to your dealer.

Until it gets aboard the ship, you can use the 1-800-831-1117 number for more up to date information. After that, your CA can keep you updated.

-Scheduled for Production too!!!-

My status on OC changed to Scheduled for Production too!!
:rocks: (I know this is reserved for when you get your baby, but after weeks and weeks and weeks of on order, I almost fell of my chair when the status!!)

The 800# is saying that production is scheduled to finish on 3/24!!!

I am excited!

Thank y'all for the support; you make this agonising wait bearable!

Thanks for the info! I just checked through the 800 number and production on the car is scheduled to be complete on March 26th. So hopefully on a boat by the end of the month, at the VPC in mid-April, and at my dealer by the end of April.

I think the e93 is very nice! That retractable top

Would change my order if the wait was not so long...Then again, I get that "hair-in-the-wind" feeling another way (r1200c)...

I am curious and jealous. When was your estimated production date/week? When did you order? I've been waiting since 1/31. Car scheduled week 15 production. Very agonizing.

I ordered mine on 1/15/07; I guess two weeks before you placed your order. Based on this, I think we are on schedule.
I know, the wait is a killer! ( I am not gonna say agonizing anymore until I spell it a 100 times )

Well, I ordered my 335i-e92 on 1/15/07...OC only changed to "Scheduled for Production" on 3/17/07...long time, long wait.
Hope this helps.

JayE93-
Per the 800#; my production will finish on the 24th. I think that our cars may well be on the same ship. The sales person had told me to expect reception of my car mid-April.
So, please let me know when you find on which ship your car is on.
I think that BMW is very logistics oriented; the company will always maximize shipping time/loads.
