Hi Speedy.

Not really.

On October 13 I received a message from the dealer saying: "Just wanted to let you know your car has left Germany and is now on the boat in route for Halifax".

On November 12 I received another message from the dealer saying my car had been returned to the port with several others waiting for a recall to be performed. The message said there was a supplier issue with a "batch of modules" and that BMW is waiting for the part to be corrected before it ships from Germany.

A subsequent message from the dealer mentioned RAM modules.

In speaking to the sales rep, it appears the car was built and shipped and that BMW subsequently found a defect with some modules so my car was "returned to port" to have the issue addressed before shipping.
