How long to wait after the car gets to the dealership??

Steve33 · 06-12-2013, 01:59 AM

Well it's sitting at the dealership according to bmwusa.com (which updated earlier, so it has probably been there since Monday) and they say I won't get it until Friday... can't wait that long!

My car got to the dealership on Sunday, my CA was off Monday, I talked to him yesterday, and I am picking up tomorrow morning. So figure at least 4 days...

I have to drop a F10 off for service so I told my CA I'll just do a car swap tomorrow if he can have it ready around lunch time... so he said that was fine and it'll be ready

My CA told me 24 hours, so likely 2 business days at most.

Depends on when it arrives and also the dealership.

My car arrived at the dealership yesterday, while my CA was out of the office. He called me this morning and let me know they are prepping and doing pre-delivery inspection and it will be ready tonight. Sounds like it varies per dealership.

It all depends on how fast it gets through the shop for inspection and then cleaned for delivery. Shouldn't be more than a day or two after it arrives at the dealer

Steve,

If you don't mind me asking what dealership in Texas did you use, and what kind of a deal were you able to negotiate?

Thanks

Managed to work them to get it today... nice addition to the garage, except I'm holding off on driving it

Clear car bra gets put on on Monday and I'd rather leave the paint pristine and not have to wash it before I take it there. A little tough... I'll manage
