Talked to dealer this morning and they told me that car is in Status 112 and that they can not do any modifications. I thought that you can modify options up to 150.

Update:
Status 111 - 14/05/19
Status 112 - 17/05/19

Today: System Code 102-31-01 '' The order can no longer be modified . It is schedules to be booked into 150 status.''
Production week: 24

That means it was/is in 112 for over two weeks, but unfortunately just missed my chance.

After 10 days of being in Quality Check, my build status changed to “Awaiting Carrier Assignment” today. Here’s hoping the car can still get delivered before 6/15.

Took another 4 days in Dispatched from Factory.

My (updated) timeline for a 2020 M340 for East Coast delivery so far:

5/10 - Order Placed
5/24 - Quality Check
6/3 - Quality Check
6/3 - Awaiting Carrier Assignment
6/3 - Dispatched from factory
6/7 - At the port

I am also waiting for my G20 to be built and just a quick tip. Once you have your VIN, at https://decoder.bvzine.com/ you can check the config. The site also provides a "prod date" once the car is manufactured. To assess when yours will be ready, you can try to change last 5 numbers and find one that has just been built. Pro tip: it seems that over 1000 G20s a day are being produced, e.g. last buitl on June 3 was with VIN ending ca. 18340, last built June 4 was 19490 (+1150), currently (June 5, 1PM Munich time) already 20250 has been marked as produced (+750 already since the day before). Mine is ca. 23500 so I bet it will be ready late Friday / Saturday / early Monday depending on the exact schedule.

PS. Sometimes even numbers ending 00 don't show the prod date while those ending 01 will do, don't know the reason though.

Wanted to add my timeline as another data point, however I don't have much since I'm taking a car that matched my desired config and was already on a ship when I first inquired to my CA:

Production Date - 4/29/19
Arrival at Port (Baltimore) - 5/26/19
In VPC - 5/29/19
At my dealer - 6/4/19

Should note that Track My BMW jumped from "At the port" straight to "At the dealership" yesterday.

Expecting to take delivery on Friday!

Patiently waiting

I see that my car is in the paint booth in Germany, it won't be long now.
The metrics they have available are amazing!

I noticed that Hans the paint technician had a good breakfast this morning and then a bm on schedule, so I'm expecting good things.

After about 17 days in port, my m340i is finally at sea. Getting impatient.

Thanks in advance!
Nor cal here it can take an extra 2 weeks or so. Sucks. I just ordered mine , prod start 1st week July est delivery end of August, I hope. I don't think they are ever very early

Not to be the bearer of bad news, but you may have one of the vehicles that was impacted by the hailstorm.

My car has been in transit since 6/11 and my dealer said it should be in the country on 6/26. Seems like a long time to be in transit but I really can’t complain since I put the order in on 5/20. Of course I will be on vacation the week of July 4th and I bet it will be at the dealer that week.
