I found this site and called the BMW Genius number on 9/23 and was given the VIN number and was told it was already in production and there was an initial estimate of a 10/11 build-completion. I thought 19 days sounded long so I called the automated status a couple of times and it always says in-production with an estimated completion of 10/11. How many changes will there be before it gets on a boat? Is there a way to find out why the build will take almost 3 weeks, assuming it still gets done on the scheduled date?
I called and talked to the real person yesterday (thursday.. my build completion date was today (friday)... she said it basically didn't truly start production until earlier this week (even though it entered 'in production' on 9/22).
