I'm also wondering if the delays could be caused by the reports of flooding other areas of Germany. I read that BMW has sent aid to these towns. Possibly could it be they have sent the factory workers to help? |

This is over 4 years old, but probably still pretty accurate.

I didn't read the entire thread but assuming you stayed with the Oxide Grey, I have a '24 540iX M Sport in Oxide Grey and love the color. I have had many strangers come up to me to tell me how much they like the appearance of the car which surprised me due to all the negativity that somw have noted re the G60.
It's a bit of a different color and can look gray or goldish depending on the light. It is subtle and IMO classy. I very like the appearance of the G60, particularly when looking at it from the side. Good luck with your purchase! |

I paid off the people on the train loading dock in Germany. It's quietly stashed in a warehouse, and keeps getting shuffled to the end of the line. I'd like to have mine returned to the production line, I can see about a hostage swap

I would not doubt you did that Todd. You probably told them they can move mine back into line when yours reaches the port.

New update today: My car is now code 193: Arrived at the port of exit. Awaiting Shipment. From what I understand it SHOULD arrive at the Dealer in about 10 days. Of course I will be on Vacation in the US when it arrives. I have Todd's luck. Will see if that holds true. I'll keep you posted.

Serious question and I hope it isn't - but have you asked specifically if it is affected by the Steering Spindle recall - We were both 36 and mine has been at the dealer for over 4 weeks now....it is painful.

I have not. Just got back from the US West Coast last night after 37 hours no sleep. So I didn't think to ask. He said we are starting the long reg process for Spain. I am pretty sure since it had to pass Homologation and other stuff before BMW Iberica would pass the paperwork to Movitransa Jerez, if it was affected he would have told me. However I will ask. He did send me a video but it's MP4 and I can't upload it here. Thanks.

Oh, I didn't go see it. This was sent to me by the dealer on receipt. It still has the tow hook covers missing. I'm still jet lagged 9 hours.
