I have no idea, I am asking the dealer for VIN, but he says it's there, I don't think he's mistaken and I don't think anyone else has a Jet Black x-Line with White interior at the same time as me.

I already thought about getting clear seat covers. Like grandma used to have.

Impatient!
I wish I could have received an earlier production week. I finalized everything on 3 September and was told my production would begin this week. Still no word on if it did or not. I am military overseas and no tracking mechanism exists for us outside of calling the "Dealer". I have been told delivery would be around the end of November or the beginning of December. 90 Days!!!!! The wait is killing me!!!!!

X5 35d stuck in "waiting for carrier" status when I call for 2+ weeks. BMW web site says production is not complete. Not sure what could be holding it up, ordered Sept 19th, Alpine White with mocha interior and lux package. Anticipation.....

You ordered in July and just got a VIN#??? That is really crazy! Why is your production date so far out? Are you also ordering through military sales program? If so, who?

GOT MY VIN!!!
Quote:
Order details: BMW X5d Space Gray Metallic Dakota Mocha Leather Fineline Oak Wood Trim Manual Rear Shades Third Row seat Driver assist package 18" all season tires 5 year shipping back to the U.S. PRICE: $ 56,850!!!!! It has been a very long wait since, as I mentioned above, we order in July and we finally got a VIN. I did change my build about a month after, so maybe that had to do with it...also, not sure if the diesel added more wait time. Looking at delivery 5-7 weeks after build, which means middle to end of december....This will be a great Christmas present for the wife!!! |

That's very cool, and you get to pay US prices, that's even more amazing. Too bad you can't sell it there, or can you?

There are a lot of people sending vehicles from USA to Europe to sell, however the biggest concern is not the spec but instead the duties and taxes. The buyer would probably be taxed at local taxes in Europe but does this mean you can actually avoid duties this way? My guess is if the vehicle stays there and you come back and stay more than x amount of time in USA they will send you a bill for duties.

Sept 5th: Received production number Oct 1st at 11:04am: Production begins Oct 8th: Production completes Oct 10th: Departs via train to Oxnard VPC Oct 20th: Departs Oxnard VPC for San Francisco area Oct 22nd: Arrived at Dealer Oct 23rd: Delivery scheduled for 5:30pm (in 18 hours!!!) 1 day shy of 8 weeks from date ordered 1 day shy of 7 weeks from receipt of production number 4-5 days ahead of BMW NA's delivery estimate. FWIW - the automated 1-800 number switched to "at port awaiting a shipping vessel" when it departed the factory and remained the same until the status changed to "in transit" when it departed the VPC on a truck to my dealer. My CA always seemed to have the latest info but, not wanting to drive him crazy, I opted to annoy the BMW NA reps almost daily. 2015 35d ZMM M Sport 416 Carbon Black Metallic NAMY Mocha Nappa Leather 4DD Fineline Pure Wood Trim ZCW Cold Weather Package ZDB Driver Assistance Plus 5AT ACC Stop & Go + Active Driving Assistant ZDA Driver Assistance Package ZDH Dynamic Handling Package 2VF Adaptive M Suspension ZLP Lighting Package ZMD Mocha Interior Design Package ZLS Luxury Seating Package ZPP Premium Package 5DP Parking Assistant 417 Rear Manual side window Shades 688 Harman Kardon surround sound system 300 Space-saver spare Last edited by McDonaldD; 10-23-2014 at 02:02 AM.. |
