GRRRRRRRRRRRRR
My new 520D LCI has arrived at my dealer since last friday and today I got a phone call that he will be able to deliver the car ... only next wednesday.
It's a company leasing car and according to the dealer the numberplates will only be there wednesday. But I think they are lieing to me ... I think they want to keep the car for the weekend because in Belgium there is the whole weekend presentation of the new X5, E60 and E92.

hmmm ... can't wait unitl next wednesday ...

Hey ABC...this was our suspicion, wasn't it---that the cars would be ready but that BMW would stall us until their unveiling ceremonies. My US LCI has been built for quite some time, but still hasn't shipped, despite the fact that cars built after mine, but being sent to farther away areas with more travel time, have already shipped. I don't think anyone in the US will get their car until after April 6. PLEASE someone prove me wrong!

Ten open days to obtain a licenseplate is not uncommon with my leasing company. The best way to cross check what your dealer says is to directly call your leaser to track the delivery process.

May be U live in NY and auto show is in NY?
Just like no local TV telecast for the people in the same city when big events are held!
It is ridiculous to hold our vehicles for that reason except genuine they do not want to disclose

I agree--ridiculous. I hope I'm wrong. As of today, I'm on a ship, which, curiously, puts my car at my dealer just after the car's debut in NYC (despite the fact that it was built and completed over 2 weeks ago). At least it's on a ship and I can just be done with getting it out of Germany and on its way home.

Now I guess I should sell my E39 (525 5M), anyone interested????
