Wow, I took several test drives of various G70s from several dealerships here in the SF Bay Area and they all dissuaded me from even driving on the freeway (although had I insisted I suspect they would've relented). Still, it didn't matter because even on standard roads with the torque it put out rocketing up to 60, I knew this was the car for me (and getting closer now at production status 151 - exterior body assembly has begun)!

I'm currently at 150 - Production started. Do you remember about how long it took to go from 150 to arrived at dealer?

Remember?! I can give you my entire timeline (remember, I'm in California). It was just under two months as you can see:

Delivery Timeline (?)

Anxious or annoyance?

My Salesperson was able to connect me to my new 760iX through the my BMW App. I do not remember seeing it while still on the boat inbound to the arrival port. I was able to see it at the Vehicle Processing Center (and each day as I waited for truck delivery 350 miles from VPC).

I finally saw it travel down I-95 via vehicle hauler and arrive at the dealer.

Now, sorry to add that it sat at the VPC for about 12 days.

Good luck. I know you'll enjoy your new drive!

I got a signed deal for 8% off MSRP here in Northern VA. I requested 8% based on what I was seeing from others on the forum. They said yes pretty quick, maybe I should have asked for 10%.

Just checked, current status "IN THE PAINT BOOTH". That makes it approximately 16 days from order to current status. Its approximate because I haven't been checking the status daily.

After several months of having the car. I finally decided to get Verizon on my business phone and got the tv to work. Now, I can’t wait for the kids to enjoy it. Watched a few clips on YouTube and now the car feels complete!
