I think the range is more like 6-10 days, depending on how many other stops the truck your car is on has to make. My dealership had 6 cars sold besides mine on the Patriot, so there was an outside chance that all 7 would be on one truck with one destination. When you get lucky like that, then the cars show up a lot faster, I have been told. I suppose if you were in the Southern part of LA, for example, and the truck had to stop at multiple dealerships, then it might be 10 days. But I also think they tell you that shit so that when it shows up in less than 10, you are really excited.

Hopefully it will get there quick!

Talked to the dealer today--my car made it thru the VPC yesterday and was released to a carrier last night!!!! I guess that does not actually mean it has left, but it will get the next open spot on a truck headed my way. He thought it would roll in on Thurs. and be available to pick up on Saturday!

Cool! I'm hoping I can pick mine up Sat. and it rolls in early too... so I can be parted from my car, and my money ... though I suppose I'll regain part of my sanity by having the Bimmer

My CA told me today that my car left the VPC @ 9:16 pm Tuesday night, and is expected to be in Indianapolis tomorrow morning!!! Maybe I will get some pics of it as it is coming off the truck.....

I too, am looking at a Saturday delivery date--almost there!

I am getting mine tomorrow too--11 am!!! It was dropped off at the dealership Thursday night, went thru service and detail this afternoon, and will be on the showroom floor tomorrow when I get there. I am so excited--unlike some of our Patriot buddies who got their cars last week, I will actually post some pics!

Sweet, looks great

OC site says my car is at my BMW center, which matched my CA's estimate... so it looks like they'll be PDI'ing it tomorrow... if I'm lucky and they get to it early I may get it tomorrow, otherwise it'll be Monday.

My baby's heeeeeeeeeere!

Well, it turns out my car made it here last Friday and got PDI'd over the weekend, and OC showed that it was at the dealer, however apparently after the PDI they parked it somewhere unusual and my CA couldn't find it LOL! So I figured maybe the OC was - *gasp* - ahead of schedule instead of being a bit behind as usual, since my CA said it wasn't there yet.

Anyway my CA found it. I guess it was for the best... as much as I wanted to have it on the weekend, I was able to catch up with most of my studies

I'm picking it up tomorrow

BTW, everyone here ought to post a link to the thread they made with their pics. I feel like I'm the last one to receive my car, this thread died down

Congrats to everyone!

My car made it to Orlando on 10/4 Wednesday. My CA was shocked to see it as his computer was still showing it at the VPC. Needless to say I picked it up on Saturday but haven't had time to take pictures yet. I was the first one in Orlando to take delivery of a e90 335i. My dealer got 3 in, 1 demo and 2 customer cars.
