I hope so, my extended lease on my 2019 i3s expires in a month.

BMWFS will allow you to extend for an additional 6 months with a production number.

Should be interesting what the EV stop sales are upon arrival at the US VPC.

My 6 month extension ends next month. Lease was originally up last September. Wonder if they will leave me carless.

Yes, I have done over 500 drag strip runs. I will definitely have the full quarter mile tests with a proper launch.

My BMW APP link to Connected Drive (where I was checking my build status), has been down "for maintenance" for a while now.

Darn, just as I feared. It went from "scheduled for production", back to "start." How many others have experienced this? I supposed there must have been a supplier issue?

I would reach out to your SA or Genius to get an accurate update. MyBMW is known for being out of sync with AG.

hotrod182 · 02-25-2022, 11:58 PM

Today it went back to scheduled for production!

Smartikat · 03-04-2022, 02:37 PM

lol, obligatory "Are we there yet?"

I suppose a lot of us want to know

jeffc42 · 03-04-2022, 03:49 PM

Has anyone's scheduled production week changed as a result of the stoppage?

Fast400 · 03-10-2022, 12:58 PM

Did you put the 1st mile on it yet?
