When is your 1er expected to arrive?

Just interested in when everyone's cars are arriving, for those who have already ordered. Mine is May 31'st, seems a bit late from what I have heard. Basically, I'm interested in how many of you guys will be driving around in them while I'm still waiting :P

Nice, you seemed pretty on-the-fence about it, but you're going ahead now? What dealership?

Maybe I did... but I think I made up my mind after a weekend road trip.
I ordered from Bavaria. And after yesterday's test drive, I am convinced this car is part of my destiny.

A few days ago, I went to Edmonton BMW to check the car out (just for kicks) and the salesman ended up getting my phone number in exchange for leaving me alone.

They later called and as soon as I acted uninterested and told them I had put a deposit at another dealership, they offered a few goodies/freebies, AND a discount. We're still figuring it out; I should have more news by tomorrow night.
In particular, I am interested in what Bavaria will do now, and I don't want to end up with nothing from nobody.

End of April for me until the Elektra went FUBR. The back log to get on a boat should push me in to May

I've been advised that all or most shipments of new BMWs via CN rail from Halifax to Montreal and Toronto have been held up or delayed due to overloading of yards holding new cars. So lots of new ones remain stacked in rail cars..:eyebulge:
The problem is slowly being resolved (my understanding), but it does mean that there may be a week or 2 delay in transit times from Halifax for those of us in Ontario & Quebec..
My 128i Cabrio left Halifax via CN rail on March 19th and by now I should have taken delivery, but that is obviously not the case.
It may get here this week, but who knows? :iono:
Anyway, the weather is still a wee bit chilly for top down driving, so I don't really care that much ---- yet.. :biggrin:

Left Germany yesterday on the Fedora, expected to land in Halifax on the 15th of April. Anyone know if there are still delays at CN rail for vehicle transports?
