How long from this point?

Hi all,

So my X5 has finished steps 1-3 of the build process today. How long do you think it'll be before It arrives at my dealership? I'm located in Rhode Island.

where are you located from the factory? My dealership said it was in a final quality control on saturday according to their system, but it just updated today that it was in the final steps. Hope their QA process isn't long lol.

I didn't actually order mine. My dealership grabbed the build from another dealership in our area, and assigned it to them, so I don't know when the order was actually put into the system. I'm hoping that it's here in the next few days. I really really want it. Even though I'm driving a 2015 X5 35i, and there isn't much difference, I just want this one more.

I'm anxiously awaiting as well. Ordered my 2016 X5 50i July 18. Was originally told I should have it by the end of August. Then was given an estimated completion date of August 12. That moved up to August 8th...then Aug. 6th...and then Aug. 5th. I feel like I'm being teased. I was content with waiting until the end of the month but now I'm going stir crazy. Hoping to hear from my dealer that it's here and waiting anytime. I'm in Chicago, so it might take a little longer to get here than you out east.

Just called to check on the status of mine and was told the order is complete and it's waiting to be released. Seems like that should suggest my delivery in Chicago will be sometime next week. Although I've seen a few comments suggesting there can be a bit of a lag between the shipping and BMW updating their info. Hoping that's the case here!
