Today I'm thinking the manual and LBB. I think the DCT will keep it's value over the manual on resale so I don't think you're actually saving $2900 by buying the manual.....just a matter of which I would rather drive. So are you dissatisfied with the DCT or just think you would enjoy shifting yourself more?

As a compromise, I just shift manually in the DCT and never leave it on Auto mode. Just feel you get a better understanding of the power curves when you shift yourself |

BMW Northwest in Fife. I'm keeping my eyes out for one on the ground though. I'm sixth on the list at BMW NW

Awesome! I'm going to Orp for a two day event second week in April.
I'll talk to the wifey and see if I can get up there on the 21st! I got my fluid changed and have my Pagids... just haven't installed them yet. |

Hi,
I'm located in Spokane. I'm first on the list at BMW of Spokane for an M2. I put down a deposit last fall. I want to do a European Delivery this fall, and I want a 2018 M2 with the LCI, so need a build date after July. They have promised MSRP (with Euro-deliver discount). Still undecided on any port-installed performance parts. They offered me a shot at the Performance Edition M2 that's coming in a few weeks, but my heart is set on Euro-delivery and LBB. |

For port installed accessories, I only got the exhaust. But other stuff you can install yourself and save a few bucks to spend on your ED trip, instead! |

I'm next up for an allocation at BMW NW (next one would be May at the soonest), but at this point will probably hold out for an allocation for a MY18. If they don't get an allocation in May it will likely be an '18 production anyway. Hope to have a car by late summer!

Contact Jimmy Barber at BMW NW. He's the guy maintaining the allocation waitlist.

BMW Bellevue wanted MSRP + $5k as noted above, and was very dodgey about whether they were actually keeping a list. I bought a 328i from them back in 2011, but wouldn't do business with them again.

For the M2, they tried to quote me $36 EACH (L and R) for the 2 stupid foam weather strips that go in the door jamb area. LOL. |

Not sure how Bellevue stays in business. Complete assh..les who work there. I've been there several times negotiating for friends or shopping myself. Not sure how they can sell any cars.

He also told me that "we don't really have a waitlist for the M2." Whatever. Glad I got what I got where I got it. |

So it appears that I have picked up someone else's build slot that goes into production very soon. The guy that had it opted for MY18 instead. Sales guy at BMW Seattle estimates it will be delivered in 8-10 weeks. PM me if you're interested in picking it up because I will be letting it go. I just can't afford it right now and was not expecting to get in so quickly. Current config is LBB, 6MT, Exec, CarPlay.
