Just put in my order!

Just put in the order for a 2017 BMW X5 35i Xdrive (returning 2014 X5) on Saturday 3/25. Got a production# this morning. This time I opted for the M Sport kit and a few other improvements.

COLOR
Space Gray Metallic

WHEELS
20" M Light alloy Double Spoke wheels style 469M Black with performance run-flat

UPHOLSTERY
Mocha Dakota Leather

TRIM
Aluminum Hexagon interior trim

PACKAGES + OPTIONS
Driving Assistance Package
Lighting Package
M Sport Package
Premium Package
Rear manual side window shades
Surround View
BMW M Performance Black Kidney Grilles for X
High Gloss Black Roof Rails

MSRP as Built$71,199 (got it for around $65K )

Expected delivery end of April
Update 4/6/17: Build completed on 4/5/17. Production started on 3/28. 8 days start to finish. Pretty impressive.
My SA says it should take less than 2 weeks to arrive at the dealership from today.

How much did you put down to get $770/mo? I'm over $900/mo for a similar build, $0 down.

Had a brief discussion with a BMW rep in NJ who believed that X5s built in Greer SC for California delivery are sometimes sent by ship through the Panama Canal.

I've done a few BTO BMWs that came by ship but those were built in Germany. SC to California by ship???

Congrats! Nice build too.

I'm still waiting on my order. It completed production on 3/31 and got to the process center on 4/2. It was supposed to be here on 4/7 but it hasn't shown up at the dealer yet. I called BMW Genius today and was told that it's still at the processing center. Seems odd that mine has been there for a week with no movement. The X5 is for my wife and it's her bday on Saturday so hopefully it will get here by then.

Nice. My SA told me yesterday after I inquired that it wasn't physically at the dealer yet, instead it was at a warehouse. Not sure of that's the same as the processing center. I hope it's at the dealer by Saturday as well because I have my weekend planned around it. Hopefully your wife can be driving hers this weekend too.

If you call BMW Genius at 1-844-443-6487, they should be able to give you more up to date information. All you need to provide them with is your name and production number. I've been calling them for updates as they seem to have more detailed information.

I called them this morning and I was told that the X5 was picked up today and due at the dealer on Friday. I'm hoping to pick up my wife's on her bday on Saturday (fingers crossed)!

Thanks I'll give them a ring. My SA just emailed saying we should be good to go for Saturday *fingers crossed*

I've been on the phone too many times with BMW USA trying to get the real scoop on where my new X5 is. Too many multiple stories as to boat or train or truck to recount here. The latest is that it has shipped by train from SC to the Oxnard CA VPC and the train trip will take OVER two weeks

That train must stop at every coal mine and steel mill and concrete plant and grain silo across the country - anything but a premium shipping method me thinks.

What has been the experience from other west coast buyers please?

You should have bought Amazon Prime for free 2 days shipping.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

It seems like they lost your package and now you have to file a lost package claim.

Sorry again.

When did you order and is it being shipped around South America to avoid the Panama Canal port fees?

You may as well have picked it up in SC and drove it back to CA.

... and to add insult to injury, if I had ordered a $10 gizmo from Amazon, FedEx would have the ability to track it in detail. Here we have an $80,000 BMW and they have no idea where it really is.

On the choo choo train somewhere in America we believe.

Did you get the high glass black roof rails? That's a selectable option. Make sure it's there if you're going all black.

How did you select black roof rails? Just placed order for a similar build but looks like I'm getting the silver roof rails. Please let me know asap! Thanks.

They should be on your order sheet as high gloss roof rails. On my build sheet, they were listed under the M Sport package as 3MC High Gloss Roof Rails. Your CA should be able to make the change if you have the aluminum ones currently selected.

Thanks. Unfortunately car is too far into production to make the change. Hopefully it doesn't look too bad. Black Sapphire Metallic, Black 469M's, Black Kidneys.... we will see. At least they will match the exhaust tips.
