Week 36 Build Date M440i

JSaid · 10-09-2021, 12:22 PM

I'm in the same boat as everyone else

my M340 with HK is awaiting a RAM module. Sitting in ready for transport to vpc ugh I can't wait anymore. At least I got all my options with adaptive m on the bright side

Are your cars German or Mexican built? My car was built in Mexico and I've been told no stop sales. I have HK. It's currently waiting to go through VPC.

How long have you been at the port? Your car is in the US as of now, correct?

When did you find out you had a stop sale? Before it went through VPC? I'm wondering if I'm getting accurate information from Genius.

I didn't find out I had a stop sale until called the genius hotline. My car has been sitting in ready for transport for a while so I called to see when it's expected to move. After about 2 weeks of ready for transport I found out

Nope it's still in Mexico unfortunately. If your in ready for transport status it hasn't left the factor. Kind of frustrated with the lack of information on what's going on with it

@JSaid Oh, I understand that if you're in "Ready For Transport" then you haven't left the factory. I guess where my confusion comes in is that you said earlier that you are ready to transport to VPC, but now you're saying you're still in Mexico???

Just trying to keep the thread clear.

The info I got from the service rep is that it's currently ready for transport at the factory. It will be moving to VPC in the US before transit to the dealer for the RAM installation, sorry if I wasn't clear earlier.

That's strange as well.

My car was produced in Germany without the RAM. It's on a ship now, the Hawaiian Highway. From everything I've read, the RAM will be installed at the VPC in Brunswick, GA, several days after it arrives. I've never hear of a RAM being installed at the dealer, but if so, lucky you. I'd rather it be that way.

Yes my car is moving to VPC to have the RAM installed there, not at the dealer. Sorry for the misunderstanding

Mine is also on the Huwaiian highway. Ship tracker has it landing in Baltimore tomorrow Oct 16th. Do our vehicles stay on ship and get unloaded in georgia? Or trailered down?

I’m pretty sure they stay on the boat and get unloaded in Brunswick, GA. There is a VPC there as well.

Hey man, we started around he same time, but you are a bit ahead.

Build took 9 days from start to finish. On its way to the port for shipping. Hope to get on a ship soon. No word of any option deletes so far.

Ordered my M440ix on 12th August, dealer just emailed to say it’s “about to go into production” with estimated delivery 3rd week in November.

Get ready for a painful experience unless you're a very patient man.....

I wouldn't bank on the 3rd week of November. Our M340ix is also "about to go into production" (knock wood), which means a best-case scenario that it's built by 10/29. It's going to take a lot longer than 3 weeks for these cars to get to us. Buckle up!
