Did anyone ever clarify the reason your vehicle status was stuck there for a bit?
Only reason cars are getting stuck is likely supply issues on some of the parts from vendors. I heard windows and then captain chairs at one point.

I just ordered today and was told 5 weeks, but dealer was trying for 3. They did mention the supply was an issue.
You guys think you're waiting? I waited 5 months for my M5 to get delivered last year. lol It was very early on though, none were in stock, etc.
Whole different animal as well, especially coming direct from Germany, etc.

I've read elsewhere that the factory change over is right around the 1st week of August and that the date is finalized sometime in April.

I wonder how soon you can order and KNOW that you'd get a 2020, and if that it can be known. Do they usually stop taking orders and then re-open them in July for 2020s?

Our new X7 didn't have rear floor mats for some odd reason. None of the X7's that came into our dealer did either. The manager called and was told they are on backorder and will let us know when they arrive. Very strange...

Holy hell. The X5 had acoustic glass availability issues. Now the X5 production has been stopped for the 3rd row option. Both the X5 and X7 laser light production has been stopped because they ran out of laser lights. Production quality issues with bench seats on both the X5 and X7. (so far the X5 has presented much more problems)

Now you're telling me BMW has run out of FLOOR MATS too?

Geez... on a big picture level, it seems that BMW has overstretched itself, trying to churn out a higher production level than it has the logistics and resources to support. High production numbers are not something that should be celebrated when it's at the expense of the product that you produce.

I ordered mine on the 1st day last year that you could. I would have been the 1st car delivered but I wanted a Performance Center delivery which delayed my delivery due to available slots by 3 weeks.

i think the first and second row are the same parts as for g05 x5.

third row no parts available yet, and cargo area no options yet, either.

sh*t show to not have mats available.

One of the advantages of the PCD is that you should be able to take another x7 for a drive on their track. Please post some pictures if you do.

Any one else pick up their X7 yet? It seems like only 3 people on this entire forum actually have had delivery.
