Hello fellow members. I just put an order for a 530i 2006 and am now in the process of waiting. My question is how long does it takes from the time its On Order to the day I get to drive my baby? The dealer briefly mention it'll be here by mid to end of May and I put the order on the 3rd week of March. I would like to hear from those who actually have to wait so I can judge when I should be depress or not
I am tracking the progress online, its a pain not being able to drive the car now. Guess the wait is worth it.

My Ride: 2006 525i Jet Black, keep my passenger seat extra clean after I(married/3kids) drop off my new mistress(half black/half indian gives great head even though I have Jock itch/yeast infection), don't want anything leaking from her crotch after I have my way with her
Unhappy

I just orederd a replacement 525i today. They told me 5 weeks minimum as it is the beginning of the new model year.

Ordered my 530i on 2/23 and just found out today from the BMW Owners Circle that it's on the water. I would guess it will be another 3 weeks before arriving in San Francisco.

ballpark, two months from placing order to driving your car. And it will seem to be a very long two months! :'( But well worth the wait...
