Ordered my X3 and a question about 'rush' delivery

Hey Everyone
I ordered my X3 two weeks ago - Went with the 30i in Phytonicblau and loaded it up nicely. It goes into production next week (week 49). I'm in Toronto.

So I'm curious - the manager at the dealer said that she was going to request a rush delivery (not my ask, she just said she was going to request it) because she wants us to have it before Christmas and she's on holiday from the 23rd through to Jan 2nd.

So I'm curious, what does that rush delivery mean? It would be delivered by truck rather than train and take, possibly, one week instead of two to get to my dealer? What is, really, the likelyhood that we'll actually get it the week of December 18th (assuming on the 22nd) rather than in January?

The dealer can flag an order sometimes but in reality I just think they will be putting your order through in a build slot they already have for that engine type.

Have no fears it's getting worked on Saturday night overtime by the apprentice team.

Congrats on the order!!

Good luck with that!

Mine got produced in 8 Nov and is still sitting at the factory since they are experiencing some delays.

No idea how long it's going to take to reach Calgary

Maybe we should start a "Build to Delivery Time" post for Canadians - We seem to have Toronto, Montreal, Calgary and Ottawa represented.
Just post when we get our cars delivered, together with production week (day).

I'm in GTA (Toronto area).
I ordered on Oct. 28th for x30i with premium essential.
Initially told that production would be in December (part of the reason for such a long wait was, according to the dealer, that most of the initial productions were for more loaded cars), but later I was updated that it would be Nov. 17th assembly.
Initial estimated delivery was Dec. 8th.
Now dealer updated that the car is on rail on the way to dealer, with revised estimated delivery Dec. 12th.
I will post any update.
