The cars were approved as of yesterday, and trucks were waiting for approval to clear out the inventory they had sitting at the ports. So the cars moved out quickly. For everyone's reference, I came in on the Courage, and arrived in Jersey City on April 1 or 2. I think it's fair to say that anyone who got to Jersey City on or before that date, is on the way to their dealer.

Didn't you state that you were sure that "who's first already happened".
The EU "first" happened some time ago. That's why I was "sure".

You may have noticed I used "NA e60.net" to refer to the North American "First" in this forum.

Well aware. Just busting chops ABC, recalling your position with TC taking the prize. How's his ride holding up?
My e60 is in for Progman 25 today and they are doing the SZL Steering Position Sensor and rear suspension recalls at the same time. I have a 2 litre Diesel X3 loaner. Hmmmm...

I ordered my 2008 535xi on Feb 17th--the vehicle was supposed to be in last week. This week, my dealer tells me my car is being held up at the port in South Carolina for emissions inspections, and that NO 2008 5ers have been released yet--and he doesn't know when I'll see it. Hmmm, doesn't sound like that is the case since yours is already in Chicago. How long ago did you order yours? Thanks.
May be held up because of EPA,late production compared to mine.
Check on bmw website(owners circle) or call 1-800-831-1117 bmwusa-customer service
2008 5ers are in dealers lots , some got 2008 already in US
