Man.
Ordered our car March 1st. Picked it up in Munich on June 4th. Dropped it off in Nice on June 13th. Car arrived in Halifax on July 16th. . . . . STILL waiting for it. Has been over 5 months since it was ordered. Ugh.... |

I think that makes it worse. Got a taste of it and then gone without for almost two months.
Wife called the dealer, apparently it has been sitting in Canada Customs for three weeks waiting to be cleared. I can't believe how slow they are. |

135is Coupe DCT Space Grey w/Coral Red Interior
Heated Front Seats Comfort Access Order Date: 6/1/2013 Arrival to Port in California (I live in Seattle): 8/1/2013 Delivery Date: I DUNNO!! Sales people said they'd get back to me with some info. Should be REALLLYYY close! One odd fact is that the 800 number status has fallen SEVERELY behind, or so I hope. BMW website tracks it at the 'Finishing Touches' stage starting on 8/2 so that seems to track on time with what my dealer said. The 800 number says it's something like "At the port of exit awaiting a shipping vessel." Boy do I want that lady to be wrong. |

When 800# turns back to "at port of exit awaiting a shipping vessel" that's code for it's waiting for a truck. So, don't worry, it hasn't reverted back to waiting for a boat status, the vessel is your truck. =P Once your sales guy gets word it has been released to the trucking carrier, then you're real close and probably a couple of days via truck I guess to Seattle. |

Wow! Mine left Halifax and is just east of me now - so close but so far! You're in Ottawa - what's the hold up? I ordered in June.

Canadian Customs is the holdup. Apparently after doing a Euro delivery, they take their sweet ass time inspecting the car before releasing it. I really hope they are not completely stripping the car looking for something. Going to have to go over it with a fine tooth comb when it finally gets delivered for the second time.

You can tell cause it's mineral white (only offered on limited edition), plus the wheels (only offered on limited edition), and tobacco leather interior (only offered on limited). I've never seen it in the configurator, let alone tracker before, so is interesting to see that.

Had to jump through hoops to order this! Talk to about 6 dealers and only one can actually do it. Most others didn't even know it existed or were not interested in my business. BMW USA just could care less about the 1 series, especially in the Bay Area where they sell a thousand times more of the 3 and 5. I wonder how they expect to sell the new i3 and the upcoming fwd 1series with this kind of attitude! BMW really need to take notes from business with great customer focus to elevate them to the next level if they want to make cars for the masses.
