Scheduled for Production

I'm scheduled for production, but I'm still waiting to hear back on what the scheduled date is.

Approximately how long do I have now? Never ordered a car before.

It shouldn't be long, but these are not normal times.

Out of curiosity, when did you pre-order?

An order goes to "scheduled for production" about 3 weeks +/- from a vehicle going into production.

Assume it will be in production this month.

Yup. Mine went back to "Scheduled for Production!"

I called BMW Genius and found out it was Week 23. End of May/first week of June. Can't come soon enough.

OP - call 844-443-6487 and give them your production number. They should be able to give you your week.

Mine just changed to 'Scheduled for Production' also! I am a week 23 build - M50 in San Remo Green/Cognac/Carbon interior trim. Pre-ordered on day 1 last June when BMW opened the pre-ordering system.

Sweet! Same interior, but went with Tanzanite. Lets see who gets there's first!

Looks like the M50's are coming.

Mine is a Tazenite, cognac leather and carbon fiber trim build. I also have the 20" wheels.
I have been told since Dec/Jan that my build week was 21. I also placed my money down June 1

I'm seeing a pattern on build weeks, interior color and trim.

Yup. I remember that. I'm closer to Germany than yourself so I'm betting on myself!

I am going with the standard 19" wheels (861M) to get a little more range. The 20s are nice, but honestly I prefer the 19s.

So you pre-ordered end of October and are now scheduled for production, while I pre-ordered end of June and don't even have a production number. WTF, BMW?

Another pre-order at my dealership cancelled and I was next in line. They apparently didn't get very many of the pre-orders assigned to them to begin with.

end of October order date and getting it on the lot in August.......so 9 months or so to deliver? I hope you're right, and I hope that is indicative of how long it will take to get mine (ordered end of Feb). If I could get mine by December I would be ecstatic.
