Week 21 Support Group

[morscode]

For those in the same boat as I am, well not a physical boat, production status is 112 with no confirmed build date. Website still shows a wrong color choice.

Ordered the car on 5/1 and I'm in Cali.
I just called the 800 number and spoke to a representative and he stated I'm Week 21 with a build date of 5/18, although it's not set in stone.

My current lease on the Z4 ends 6/24, I hope it will be here by then. :drinking:

i used to have a 05 Z4!
it was pretty sweet.
2.5 or 3.0?

[morscode]

3.0 6MT, love the car; although, I'm definitely looking forward to a rear seat to tilt my seat back!

What's funny is I've griped about the lack of storage in the Z, but there's less in the 1er

[coco_m3]

yeah
but im going to love the back seats for extra storage and room for more people..

Congrats on your order.

If you lay the rear seats down you'll have considerably more storage room then a Z4.

Where did you hear this? If we're simply talking trunk space, the Z4 has 8.5 cubic ft of trunk space (top up) whereas the 135i has 13.0 cubic feet with the back seats up. Trust me, that extra 4.5 cubic feet will make all the difference (I used to own a Z4). Plus there's the back seat...

I was actually referring to storage compartment room. The z4 has a small glove box; pretty much only usable for insurance and registration when the man gets you.
But there's a fairly big center console if you didn't opt for the cd changer, which I did not. The 1er has the small glove but very small center console.

Ahh, I see... I was confused for a second there! I really did like the Z4's console storage as well. On a side note, I was actually surprised by the amount of trunk space in the 1er... I expected it to be non-existent.

I ordered on May Day as well and according to my CA the car should be a week 21 car. No update at all on the tracking page yet. The wait has only just begun and it's killing me already!

Tell me about it! I've been checking the status on the site and 800 number at least 4-5 times a day!

[tonytigerking]

Ordered on May 3rd, I wonder if I am week 21 as well.

I did the same thing at first. However when I finally got to the dock I slowed down and only called when a boat actually came into port which might possibly pick up my car. And now that I'm finally on a boat, and I know that it's impossible for my status to change for about 3 weeks, I haven't called at all. I check some of the ship tracking websites daily to see if my ship shows up on any of them (it doesn't) but I wont start calling the number again until the ship hits the port and I'm frantically waiting for it to get through VPC and on a truck to the dealer.

Order May 3rd, so I think I should sign in here
Now lets hold hands, make a circle and say: it'll be here soon...it'll be here soon...

[BullishMB]

[tonytigerking]

[tharpa]

hi my name is tharpa. i am a week 21er as well, found out via the 1800 number. i don't know if a support group is going to do it. i need a 1 series rehab clinic.

[Jumpman]

No confirmed production date yet.

[HockeyGuy89]

Order on May 1st myself, and 800 number told me I was on Week 21 production.

[morscode]

Is the automated system telling you guys Week 21? I had to speak to a representative because mine still says no confirmed date.

[Jumpman]

BLAH!!! My CA just told me that my car got changed from week 21 to week 22 in the system!!!




Bye guys

[morscode]

I will be saying goodbye to everyone here as well, I called the 800 number and the rep told me I got bumped to Week 19 and my car is being produced today!!


Good Luck all!
