How to get build info on a 2002 from BMW
Many times we are asked how you can find out more information on the original construction date of your car and paint color.
The BAD NEWS:
- They can’t give you specifics as far as options.
The GOOD NEWS:
- BMW Mobile Tradition provides free of charge the information on your car via e-mail. They can tell you day of build, day of shipment to final country destination and the original color. You’ll know then your car’s birthday!
