Is it even available yet? If you're setup on the OC, and if they've made it available, you should be able to get it from there.

Ooops, I see you're not in the US. I don't know if there is an equivalent to the OC for you guys. Maybe someone with an OC account and an 05MY car can grab the manual and post it?

Thank you for responding. I have ordered my car through Military Sales (I am a civilian working for DoD in Germany.) they can not give me a production number nor a VIN. My Sales Rep ( a nice guy) says he may get it a week before it goes in to production. So... I know with the VIN I could get in to the OC but without it I am kinda stuck. From what I have heard from others (Americans) that have ordered their car through Military Sales this is typical. Thanks for your help!

Okay, I just checked and found that anyone with OC access can download any manual -- not just the manual for a car you registered.

At this time, no 2005 model year manuals are available...

If you ordered through military sales you will not be able to check OC becuase your car will be registered through BMW AG.

Thank you CRRobert, Rudy and kigerka. I will keep checking to see if somebody gets it.

kigerka, You have told me before that they just don't track things here in Germany for US Military Sales. It just doesn't seem BMW would not know when and how they are going to schedule a car to be built only a week in advance. Any how thank you guys for responding again. I must be searching for ways to occupy the time before it comes.

John

My dealer would get a print out about once a week on the status of his vehicles but i always had to stay on top of hime to get that info. The status never shanged until I got a VIN and when it started production. But since a car only takes 3 days to complete the print out was pretty much useless.
