Nice! Congratulations. Now the wait begins.

I'm glad to hear you obviously found a good deal, since you were eyeing a different deal on a car last week.

I'm shopping around this month as well for the best deal possible for a 2016 X6M

Thanks! I am super excited

I got a good deal, plus I am able to get out of my current 6 lease, which I am so happy about.

Sent you a PM

I'm doing Performance Center Delivery in two weeks! I thought he wait was going to be longer. I don't know how, but Nalley BMW got mine pushed up from week 40 to now.

Congrats! PCD is going to be amazing. Great color combo! It is going to look beautiful!

They told me to expect a Friday (11th) arrival. Not bad since I was assigned a production number on the 7th of August.

Wow that is fast! Hopefully mine is finished in the next few weeks. Itchin' to drive it! Post pictures when you get it!

Lucky dog! That's great timing. That's barely two weeks from order to production. And more importantly, less than a month from order to pickup.

If only we could all be so fortunate. . .

Congrats!

Less than 24 hours to pick up...going to be a long night tonight.

How many weeks did you guys wait till it finally went into production? I am hoping mine goes into production by next Monday.

noushy · 09-11-2015, 10:29 AM

Mine went into production a week early and from start to dealership was 8 days! Then again we live in Michigan

m34SPD · 09-14-2015, 09:18 AM

Called BMW Genius and the guy said it has been scheduled for production on the 10th! No updates on the tracker online yet.

NickRac · 09-14-2015, 10:46 AM

The car is awesome!

m34SPD · 09-14-2015, 12:48 PM

Did you pick yours up? Pics?

I did. Will post some pics in the next couple days (looks the same as all of the other DG/MR).

I must say - I've never had a 500+ (not even 350+ come to think of it) horsepower car with AWD. I love it.

m34SPD · 09-14-2015, 04:55 PM

Nice! Enjoy in good health.

m34SPD · 09-17-2015, 09:10 AM

Called BMW Genius and was told that it will go into production week 41, but Monday they said it will start this week.

m34SPD · 09-25-2015, 06:35 PM

:happy anim:

m34SPD · 10-05-2015, 02:12 PM

Finished production on Friday!

Waiting for information on how it will be sent. Is it going to be checked there, or will it be taken to California VPC then trucked to my dealership?

tastelid · 10-06-2015, 12:24 AM

So pretty much a full week in production?

I am still waiting to escape "order documented" status. How long did that take you? Same dealership I believe.

m34SPD · 10-06-2015, 09:18 AM

My order was sent in on the 3rd, went into production on the 25th.

NickRac · 10-07-2015, 07:47 PM

Late - I know!

Luca42 · 10-07-2015, 08:00 PM

Nick,

Thanks for the photos. How are you enjoying the car? Everything that you expected?

Yes - loving' it.

I've owned some high horsepower cars (e93 M3, Maserati GranTourismo MC, F10 M5, f82 M4) but never any with AWD. The accelerations are amazing.

The thing is fast as can be on the freeway too - it just doesn't feel like it. I haven't and would never do this but I imagine 125mph feels like 55 mph...

Gas consumption is outrageous - my fault I know. 1800 miles and I've averaged 9.4 mpg.

The interior blows everyone away. The women like to touch it, the guys all high five me - this is the most proper interior I've seen in a BMW.

I really also enjoy the "wolf in sheep's clothing" aspect of the car. It's debadged now and some people know what it is but very few.

Downpipes and a tune coming soon!

The X5M is something else compared to anything else.

m34SPD · 10-08-2015, 11:18 AM

So it is still in the quality control check area since it finished production. Was supposed to be transferred over to the VPC on the 6th, still no movement.
