We are the same build week and ordered the same day as you. The dealer is telling us arrival at their dealership (Midwest) sometime in November, possibly late October if we are lucky with a ship. Congrats on the new order.

Hey Gang,
I also called the Genius's today and my build with Individual paint is week 40 so that's October 2nd. Probably be a New Years baby! if they wait any longer I could add the compound brakes. |

Exciting. Mind if I ask what color you ordered?

not sure if this will ever be addressed, but I am hoping that with the "M" differential, it hopefully fixes or addresses some of the hesitation?
I personally think this is root caused with messing with the Auto H and the Auto start/off option. However I think anyone who's ordered is very curious how the daily drive might be. |

It’s 100% throttle mapping. BMW could fix it today with a software update, maybe even OTA, but will they? They don’t have a good history of acknowledging faults.

Should we all rally up and start writing to BMW USA? If we can file enough formal complaints, at least we have it documented in the event that it becomes an even bigger issue down the line.
Unless this is a wasted effort because they just dont care? Thoughts? |

I spoke to a genius today who told me that my final production date was Sept 1st, but the tracker still showed "final quality check" so they're not sure but said the final production date is usually accurate. Did not tell me why it's still in this, said it could be they just didn't "check the box"
At this point it's actually come much sooner than I anticipated so I would welcome a slight slow down as we just bought a house and are trying to get some renovations done before we move in, so another NEW thing wouldn't be optimal for us. I say this as a person who's already purchased an All-season wheel set up with tires, and a bunch of other goodies to throw on during delivery day. |

What all-season wheel set did you go with? My dealer has been hesitant to advise me on one as BMW doesn’t have an “approved” one for the M35i and he’s worried about the stock X1 set not clearing the brake calipers.

I took a gamble and ordered some Rota grid 19x8.5, wrapped in pirelli p zero as plus 3, 245/45 square set up.
If they don’t clear (was told I shouldn’t have any clearance issues as they fit on other models that have an “M sport brake” set up. We’ll see but I’m not too concerned..yet |

I don't have any official specs, but I feel confident that the Rota's have a bigger clearance on the interior drum in comparison to the stock OEM M wheels that the car is set to come with as the standard option.

I don’t think most 19” wheels should be an issue if that’s the case, unless you have a large lip on the face. There’s a fairly decent margin to play around with offsets in there if you’re not going wider than 8.5”. At my current ET32 offset I could go at least 1/2” wider in the fronts judging by the clearance inside the front fenders.

I think once I get the car broken in and once spring is on the horizon, I am likely going to sell the oem 20”s in place of something more aggressive, with a much more 20-25mm poke.
We’ll see though, really waiting to see what the winter brings and shows me what next mod might be. Plan on dropping off at the ppf installer the same day of delivery. The wheels go on a month (Nov) after the car is out of ppf and tinted. I want to spend about a month on the summer rubber in the cooler months to see how far I can go before I need to throw the AS set on. On the fence about replacing the under seat subs, heard mixed reviews and it doesn’t sound compelling enough to warrant the spend, I’d rather much explore a powered sub set up and throw it in that dead space in the cargo area. |

It was easy in my f32 since the battery was back there, and someone made a plug and play harness to get the RCA’s off the factory amp.

They all go through this step, the quality check. Nothing to worry about unless it stays there for more than 2 days, although the tracker is sometimes delayed in reporting the actual stage. I’d say call BMW genius if stuck in that stage for days.

Hey, I'm sorry it's taken so long to respond.
I agonized for a bit and finally settled on Utah Orange. I had wanted it on my original 2023 order but couldn't get it on the Msport. When that car arrived in Blue Bay Lagoon, I went to the dealer, didn't really like it, rejected it and ordered the color and car I had wanted originally. I like the orange and Black combo outside and the warmth of Mocha and wood on the inside. Would have liked the M seats but wanted Mocha more. |
