Since I am sure many are interested in predicting their delivery date, I have put together a spreadsheet from forum data. If anyone wants to be removed, let me know and I will update. Also any updates would be great.

Here is a link to an updated version in Google Docs

A day or so after my car actually finished being built, I called the BMW Genius to get status. They told me car had finished but was at "dock" waiting on transportation. Status on the website still said "In production".

So it may be a matter of semantics. Is car "in production" or "in transit" when they have finished making it but the physical transportation step has not actually begun yet?

Apparently there has been a rail capacity issue (not enough rail cars to move the vehicles out of Spartanburg). This has added about a week to the normal delivery times. BMW is giving priority to "sold" units because we are approaching the end of the year and they want their numbers to be good. For the same reason, they may decide to move relatively more units by road.

My order has left the bodyshop and paint shop and is in assembly. I decoded the VIN and it has a production date of today.

That is probably true - the original estimated delivery for me was Dec. 8th, but now it's delayed to 12th.

I want to meet more of the M3 people in Ottawa as their is a big group of M3 drivers here, so I'll make the effort to get to know everyone this spring when they bring their cars out!

I love it! Thanks for putting this together.

All I know at this point is that this is supposed to be production week for me. I might call BMW tomorrow just to see what they say about status.

I can confirm that my dealer did sell the black (not sure which black) X3 30i they had on display. They couldn't deliver it until BMW had done their official launch in Canada a week later.
