Yep, mine's showing as in transit too.

I just called in to BMW Genius and they said my build is on the Glovis Grand Hero with an expected arrival at Port Jersey on 9/18.

So those of you due into port on 9/18, are you going to pick up this month or wait until Oct 1 to see if programs change?

Oct 1 is the start of a new quarter so I would expect better leasing numbers

I'm going to wait - can't imagine the programs getting worse!

It's about to be the 18th and the boat is still in Baltimore. That bot is probably not arriving until the 21st -22nd, and by the time it goes thru the VPC and gets to the dealer it's most likely going to be a October delivery

You're really hoping it's October ... I just straight up told my SA that if it shows up early, I'm not picking it up until Oct 1. No hoping here

Also ... it's on the move ... ETA is tomorrow.

LOL i saw it's about time. i mean I'm expecting October, I do have a port install option (MPE) and I've been told the VPC is backed up and can be as long as 4 weeks. I'm with you tho I'm not doing a September delivery

Granted, it was ~3 weeks ago now, but my dad's german build M340i was only like 4 days from boat docking to arrival at Dealership. No port installed accessories, though.

That's good to hear i do hope it's pretty quick and that October I've been in this process since April so my patience is running thin. Hopefully the incentives in October is better

How do you know if you have a port install option? I'm hoping to do an October delivery without having to tell my guy I won't be part of his September deals.

Did you spec any port installed options?

Well thats the thing I don't know! What is an example of that?

Ah. Mostly M performance items. M performance exhaust, spoiler, side skirts, etc. If you only spec'd items from the website build configurator then you don't have any port installed options.

I've been going back and forth with a sales advisor on a custom order M340i with a MSRP of around $58k. He's latest offer is to combine financing incentives and my PenFed incentive to give me $6k off MSRP.

Is this generally a good price for a custom order? Anything I should watch out for here (additional fees, etc. tacked on) or ask for additionally? I am in Texas.

[tgrundke]

General consensus, when inventory is good, is to shoot for 10% off MSRP *before* incentives. Your mileage may vary, of course.

As mentioned, always best to negotiate pre-incentive price. What part of Texas? Inventory isn’t great right now, but it should still be possible to get $5k off pre-incentives on that msrp.

Both I and the dealership are in Austin. This is the 2nd dealership I've checked in with and first was only willing to go about $3.5k off MSRP. If I could get out the door at $51k on a $58k MSRP I would be happy. Currently at $52k plus I'm not sure if they will try and tack any add'l fees on to the quoted $6k off MSRP.

Are you open to ordering from dealers in other cities within Texas?

Brokers are offering 9-11% pre incentive discount and on a custom order you can work with any dealer in the country. Also, October's incentives should be better than Sept.
