Yes, but it depends where you are in the states.

I'm in San Antonio, Texas. The ship should arrive 7/29 in Galveston.

I can't go to sleep just thinking about cruising in my brand new 335i F30 M Sport Melbourne red in about a month or so......then slapping on some DPE wheels, a slight drop, dark tints, and just breakin' necks as I cruise down the street

ThreeTwentyEightI · 07-10-2012, 06:35 AM

Called BMWNA today and my completion date got push back from the 12th to Friday the 13th car is doomed now.

More Doom..

The performance center is not yet accepting delivery dates because the EPA hasn't approved the 2013 3'er models yet...DAMN YOU EPA!!

@ the paint shop!

Yeah, I'm in the same boat.

This is my sales advisor's response:

Quote:

There are no issues holding up the 2013 models at this point. If there was a hold, that would occur when they arrive at the Vehicle Processing Center in Oxnard. The first cars won’t start arriving there until sometime in late August. If the EPA hasn’t approved the mileage, that is when a stoppage on delivery could occur, but we don’t expect that to happen. If we are told anything different, we will tell you.

Yeah. That seems odd. I don't think BMWNA would allow sales of a car that would be help up in EPA inspections. Isn't this stuff taken care of BEFORE a product is released to the public anyway? Lastly, it's the same engine. Same everything except for body redesigns and a few interior knick knacks. There's no reason why cars would sit on the lots for any length of time for the EPA. We've all been through emissions tests. They hook a hose to your exhaust pipe and take reading. Takes 90 seconds. As far as MPG, the 2012s have been over here for months with the same engines.

Just finished production yesterday! Waiting to be released to carrier.

scott@bmwhn · 07-11-2012, 03:47 PM

Usually by the time the new year model hit the dealers it has already been approved, and I don't expect there to be any delays with any of them...I think this is more along the lines that the delivery center can't schedule any deliveries until the vehicles are officialy approved....which could happen any day...I hope

If the 800 number says my vehicle is scheduled for July 19 completion, is there a slim chance I will make it on this beast?

One production is complete, your vehicle still needs to be transported to the port of exit. This took a couple of days for me (to update on the system). I'm not 100% sure on this but I don't think you will make that ship. The Tijuca is leaving 7/30...you probably can make it on this one. Again not 100% on this, just what i've experienced so far. Hope you get it soon enough though.

evkl · 07-12-2012, 03:01 AM

Just found this post and I'm overly jealous of all you who already have production complete! Barely got my order in on Monday and I'm really hoping that production starts ASAP on it.

I know that this may have already been asked, but about how long on average does it take for a car to complete production once it has started? If it's within a week or two there might be hope of my car leaving before August!

Awesome! Mine sat in the paint status for 3 days and skipped the assembly status all together.

bimmerlover · 07-12-2012, 09:18 AM

That shipping schedule must be incomplete.
My car just left yesterday on THE FLORIDA HIGHWAY shipping vessel.
Confirmed directly by my local dealer on their BMWNA intranet

More than likely no. There is a lot of handling that goes along with getting it on the boat. This is my 3rd and 6th in my family custom build and typically I've experienced 3-10 days of handling after completion before its on a boat.

Car produced, released to carrier awaiting transport to port of exit.
