Based upon the other people that have already taken delivery of their 2013 335i xDrive vehicles, it sounds like something strange is happening with your car. I have heard that random cars get pulled for EPA testing, but the two week delay seems odd. I'm betting that EPA certification (which is what Frank also said in an e-mail to me yesterday) is not really the issue here. Hopefully you will get a call today or tomorrow and that will be the end of it!
Appreciate the optimism! I know its a long process when you order a BMW, and it takes allot of patience, but there is a reason why every phase is the way it is. And I get that. But this doesn't make sense given what has already been aforementioned prior in this post. So I think you're spot on with there being something strange going on. And aside from when I will receive the car is what I want to know. But the car is in the states now, the production process is over, its now on the dealer to get the car up here. But I doubt I will get a call that the car is there in the next day or two.

I've heard varying things about the EPA stuff. That was more or less my intent with the post initially, hopefully there is a SME on this stuff on here. And if the car was pulled for testing, is there a projected time frame on it etc.

I hope you dont run into the same problems!
I will keep my fingers crossed
