Also if he actually gives me an allocation number it should also come with a build number correct??? Oh and at MSRP
Did he mean a production number?

It seems most dealers don't have production numbers that far out, so I'd take it with a grain of salt.

If he can get you the production number though, make sure he associates it with your name on the order, that way you can track it via the website.

Yes, make sure that is an actual production number and has a build week associated with it. If that is the case, and nov delivery works for you, I would jump on it.

I'm sort of in the same boat here - I've been told my car is in production - but I've asked like 4 times since last Friday where my production / build # is, and nothing. So, the only thing I can say, is maybe the order has progressed but that's it.

Ok soni officially put a deposit in and was told late summer. As far as obtaining a production number he said it would take a couple of weeks but he did assure me late summer maybe earlier.

Seems sketch. I have been in this boat for the last 3 months. Every month - oh you will get an allocation next month, we did not get one this month. They were rather confident in me receiving one April 5th, which has come and gone.

Unless they had a configurable allocation in their system, you are just on a list. Hopefully no one is ahead of you.

lol! You don't get a production number without first ordering from an allocation. The allocation is what is important, not the production number.

That is somewhat what I said above. I agree, allocation is important. They go hand in hand. Once you get an actual allocation from BMW, then you will configure said allocation and then a prod number follows rather quickly.

Without an actual allocation, you have no prod number and you are still sitting there waiting wondering when you will actually get one.

I think what people are trying to say that is if the dealer doesn't already have an allocation that they can convert into a production for YOU, then they don't really have a car to sell you.

Do they already have an allocation to sell you, or are they selling something that then don't have yet? An allocation can be converted into a production number within a day or two.

It sounds like some dealers are selling more cars than they are going to get this year. They can take 20 orders and try to fill as many as they can.

Agreed. Should be a day or 2 to receive you production number.

Same thing when I ordered my m235i. Got allocation and day later I had production number and added to my bmw account for tracking status online.

Yes, found BSM on their website. Surprised they had 2.... and that no one has snagged these yet.

I have LBB locked in with deposit down, but now has be between LBB and BSM again. I am going to pretend I did not see this.

Yeah. I think mine was the next day after the dealer got an allocation to work with. Then the misery of waiting began.....

I called fresno bmw and the guy I talked to said 10k above MSRP. He only has 1 in stock which is the black DCT. Also, the upcoming allocations will be market adjusted. Are you sure it's fresno bmw?

I read this as. I expect the dealership to get an M2 allocation next go around or at the latest the next go around, which would be at the latest a November delivery. If they get an allocation next go around it will be a September delivery.
