Online tracker shows wrong color
WTF, I ordered a moonstone metallic exterior. Confirmed it on VIR. But now when I track the build online it shows the color as space gray. My SA assures me it's not an issue. I have heard of others with similar tracking issues. BMW needs to stop freaking out their customers like this!

Same here. My car showed Black Sapphire also online until production started and it switched to Imperial Blue.

to be 100 sure and put yourself at rest just call BMW 1 (800) 831-1117 let them know your vin or production number and they can confirm it.
Also use this number to track your progress of the your build. A lot more accurate then the website. website is always behind and can show inaccurate info

Probably the result of lazy developers / designers not accounting for special cases in colors and setting the default color to an arbitrary color... #DevGeekReply.

Mine went through 4 different colors before it settled to MCB. I ordered Imola red so it never showed in that color

Well, my tracker shows a yellow 1980 Ford F-150 being built and I'm not worried yet. Congrats and very interesting build! Looking forward to pics when you do ED.

Hey everyone! Just wanted to give this thread a 2017 bump.
I had the same issue last night! I ordered my Carbon Black X4 on a Thursday and was given the production number the following Monday. When I logged in to track the build it showed up as Black Sapphire Metallic. After a brief panic I found this thread. The next day I called 1-844-4GENIUS with my production number. She advised that this is a common issue bc the production numbers are recycled. I gave her my production number and she was able to see all of my packages and the correct color No solid time frame on when they were going to start but at least they have the right info. |
