Even though I'm at least 3 weeks from production, my CA advised me that I need to finalize my order because changes at this point for the F16 X6 may jeopardize my production date. I changed to the Ivory Design package though which he says could really cause a problem. I made some updates yesterday (and then today) and we're crossing our fingers.

My final build:

2015 X6 xDrive
Mineral White
Ivory White/Black Bi-Color Nappa Leather
• Awesome black leather dash with contrast stitching / Stupid bi-color Nappa seats
Fineline Pure wood trim
MSport
• 20" wheels
• MAdaptive suspension

Dynamic Handling Package
• Dynamic Performance Control / Active Anti-Roll
Premium Package
• Comfort Access Keyless Entry / Satellite radio / 4-zone automatic climate control

Driver Assistance Package
• Rear view camera / Head-up Display

• ACC Stop & Go

Lighting Package
• Adaptive Full LED Lights / Automatic high beams

Price: Way too much!

If you ask him for your production number, you can login to the BMW site and it will (should) tell you what the status is. The production number is 7 numerics, whereas the VIN is a whole bunch of alphanumerics.

https://www.bmwusa.com/Secured/Content/Forms/Login.aspx

If you don't have an account, you can create a new account by clicking on 'Register now for My BMW'.

You add a production number by clicking on 'View/Edit My Profile' on the left, then click 'Add a vehicle'. After you add it, it should show up on the left. Click on it under 'Track My BMW'.

Nice formatting you got there.
I came back to post my status update and then I was like "I didn't order all that stuff"

Here is my update:
http://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...postcount=1166

Website, as usual, still doesn't have any update, so as usual, again, I called in but this time for some reason I got a rep on the line instead of automated system, I was scared at first, but he told me it is in production as of today (not sure how it is in production as of today with production date of 10/11 but anyway) and..
10/8/2014 – In production as of today and Estimated Production Date 10/11.

He said it should all be updated within a week with more solid information.

I think that the only differences of note are the DHP and 20" wheels. (Enhanced Bluetooth and Ceramic Controls are in the 'eh, whatever' category).

That is so awesome! You'll have a new ride in no time.


On mine:

Changing to the Ivory design package did indeed mess with my production date. My CA is hoping that they'll get their act together (getting the parts) and it will move back to its original slot. He's seen that happen before. He left town just after making my update so I won't know until he gets back. Oh man!

Am quite psyched. Dealer will install the OEM tow hitch when it arrives in 4-6 weeks.
SOOOO....the car was meant to be built week 40 (last week) but no update. Ordered back in the first week of September. Hopefully soon. Anyone see anything in my build that could be holding it up?

I'm picking up my 2015 x5d tomorrow. It was built mid September. Since the engine displacement changes only seem to apply to the gasoline engines should I expect the transmission changes to be in my vehicle given that it isn't built in October?

Did the transmission changes take place with all 2015s x5d's or only after October 1st?

And the fact that yours is F16.

Looks like it!!! Though, if it is too early, it will have to sit in the dealer lot for a while and I don't like that.

Bumped!

Fantastic news through yesterday, my UK delivery has been brought forward 3 weeks! So that's just over 2 months to get a car built & shipped to the UK, which I gather is a really good time!

Got a ride in a colleagues E70 yesterday which was really nice and he raved about. Methinks he'll want to update once he sees the F15.

Just too excited!

Anyone else have a vehicle stuck in "QA check" (I called and that was the status I have, it has been in QA check for over 3 weeks with no ETA on exiting).

Could this be due to a parts shortage? i was told it would delay but then it went into production in early September.

Got confirmation from my dealer today that it's just arrived in Southampton and is going to be delivered direct to them. Just got the VIN and Reg so all insured now and picking up on Tuesday. It's been a long, long wait and can't wait to get her now. Shame I'm not going to get to drive her much though as heading out of the country for three weeks the day after.
Will post some pictures if I get a chance but may have to wait until I return home. M50d, Alpine White, Piano Black trim, Sunroof, Sun Protection Glass, Sun Blinds, Reversing Cam, Black Grills, looking forward to seeing what the Alcantara/Dakota Leather interior looks like in person (see plenty of pics). I just thought the Dakota black leather alone was just too much black and I'm not a fan of the browns and wood trim.

New 2015 X5 M package Status...

It did take sometime to provide all of you with nice pictures of my new 2015 BMW X5 35i with M Package.

Here are some of the pictures from the delivery day last week. My wife was so happy and surprise. BMW of Fairfax made it happen the way I want it.

Wow, that must be some kind of record for the poor UK customers! After placing an order end of May, my 30d M Sport was finally built on 08/10 but my UK dealer is cautious as to when it will be ready to collect - first week of December by his reckoning. Do you know how long it is taking from production to delivery in your case?

Hi, not too sure, the reason from the lease company is early build, perhaps someone dropped out of a slot? It's via Alphabet who are owned by BMW.

I got the email on the 9th, so it would have to start build this week I'd guess to get completed, transported to port, shipped to UK, then up to my local dealer, so that would be 3 weeks? Unless they'd already started build and chose to notify me once that process was confirmed.

I'm surprised at so long to get it shipped to the UK if yours has just been built! Doesn't sound right.
