New BMW Build Configurator online today

[Jim S]

Thanks
This has confirmed a situation when a dealer was trying to get me to put a £££ deposit on a new 35is in July / Aug 2016
Another dealer told me that the system gave a 0500 code on the system- what they were doing was attempting to take me out of the bigger market and sell from their stock.

I bought from the dealer who gave me the honest order situation- I bought a pre built car with the spec I wanted but not my first colour choice.

I thought the E89 went out of production in March 2016. I purchased a pre registered (31st March) sDrive 20i in July 2016 and that was one of the very last cars built.

My build was (from memory here) Aug 16
I will check when I get home.

Seems like I am a little misinformed. You really did get one of the last production cars. Hope you got a good price

.... and today it’s hit “5500 Assembly Complete” so hopefully not much longer to go until my unconfigurable Z4 arrives

I did
It was all packaged up with disounts on the new car along with inflated trade in prices for the two cars I handed in.
I had to compromise on some details but nevertheless it was still very well equipped. The colour wasn’t first choice and I wanted Red leather but it’s still a nice car .

I just checked mine: Prod. Date 2016-08-01 You must have been just behind me in the queue. ;-) I always wondered if I got the last RHD production car as it matched my spec from what I read online.

I would also like to know how far down the list I am!
Im sure the Vin has a code hidden inside it.

It does. Search for Vin decoder online and pop your Vin into it. They give you spec details and also the production date.

Yes I've done that but the number isn't sequential? Each digit of the total Vin refers to something in the build spec.

Dare I look ?
It was £53k last time I looked so if there’s more options available the cost isn’t going south!

I also think I would take a big hit on my 35is even tho it’s only done 8k so £/ mile would be horrendous.

I ticked every single option and got to £53,340...

But you would get a fantastic car for that price. Go for it
