Placed the order for 30d (Europe) mid July. Changed to 40d end of August. Dealer told me that the production will be in week 50. No clue about delivery (Austria), perhaps Jan/14.
Asked about the VIN to track the cargo ship but didn't get the VIN. How did you get it? What else can you track with the VIN (and where)? Btw. it's an Alpinewhite 40d, M Sport, 20", Dakota black comfort, almost fully loaded. Can't wait to sit in, since I had a test ride 2 weeks ago. It was awsome, in my opinion much better than E70. It's very quiet inside, like F10. |

^ Wonderful change to 40d.
Track VIN http://www.bmwarchiv.de/vin/bmw-vin-decoder.html on page 2 the pdf selection will show you 2 pic's. The interior one is nice, shows your front seats from LHS door to RHS door. The visuals of leather with trim options is a good visual. You can see other vehicles if you are interested to see what the color/trim combo's look like for comparison purposes. The trim (Fineline etc) actually is subtle but really accentuates the leather. |

That's awesome! You got the best case scenario. Just over 2 weeks, insane.

Received a call from my sales guy at BMW last week. He says mine is slated to arrive at the dealership November 19th. Hopefully it doesn't get held up like they are in the states. The dealership I bought one through had a 50i sitting on the lot already so thats a good sign...I think

I had placed an order for an X5 on 10/26 and was confirmed a production slot in week 48 (last week of Nov 2013), but I got an email from my dealer rep yesterday communicating as follows, which I quote:
" I am sorry to let you know that Bmw just sent out a “urgent” email. The email read that any 2014 X5’s on order that have a variety of option’s including rear view camera’s are going to be delayed until January production due to a lack of camera’s. So what this mean’s is that you are probably looking at a mid to late February delivery on the X5 I am guessing." Anyone else having the same issue? The dealer is asking me to call the BMW customer service to protest....not sure how much of help that would be. |

^ Your first post is a big one, albeit a messenger. Rear view camera, if same one in other vehicles, I would suspect similar delays. Two to three months sounds lengthy for a camera.

I just spoke to my CA yesterday and was told week 48 also. He said nothing about a delay and I too have the backup camera ordered. I agree with Barcelona, 2 months seems awfully long for an option I would imagine almost every X5 is ordered with. I hope you were misinformed. This would be a colossal blunder on BMW's part.

Were you given a production number? It may just be that the dealer does not have an allocation slot until then. These dealers are tricky and will use almost any excuse! Sounds to me that without cameras, most of their production would be halted. Back up cameras are pretty standard now of days. |

Looks like another member got a similar email. If this is true, I start car shopping again tomorrow.

Pathetic. I honestly can afford to wait, we aren't at lease end yet and just wanted the bigger car sooner than later. Another month or two won't kill us. But I'm about out of patience for nonsense like this. I'll be calling my CA first thing in the morning and quite likely test driving other cars tomorrow afternoon.
