Everyone in Canada for the 2016 calendar year has a week assigned.
i will check with the SA later today. actually he is the sale manager at the dealership.

Hey jjr261 twboy1999 and kristobias :

If at all possible and not a huge inconvenience, any chance you can try and find out when your cars were built? A production date is ok, I can backtrack the production week from that.

Will be great to complete the set of data for the early delivery cars.

Right on. If your car is being built in August, you for sure have a production week - my original allocation was for August and I had the production number and week in March.

The list is now updated with everyone's info as of the time of this post.

When I have some spare time at work I'm going to compile the data in a table and provide % breakdown of colors and transmission options.
Mine is also 6NS if you are breaking down by options as well.

All allocation for calendar year have been given to dealerships. If they can't confirm the week, then you do not have a firm allocation, but just a production number.

I am thinking if they have a production number they have a production week... they just haven't given it to you for some reason. Not sure how they can have a production number and not have an allocation.

Week 27. My dealer says it's a 2017 but I question that. If production starts now and ends in July is it a 2017?

He is not. My dealership has a November allocation with a production number and week assigned.

Most allocations were given out in March for the calendar year and a few later additions like the one above came out maybe a month or so ago.

The good news is that from the sounds of it, you are going through the same dealer as I did. They never gave me too much info either, and then all of a sudden my car was built.

Yes. Dealers can keep their allocations number for themshelves and give cars to their "preferred" customers when they are getting close to being built.

I hope you get your car ASAP .

Wow, fresh off the line!!! Production for the M2 started Nov. 24, 2015. You probably have one of, if not the, first customer car.

Order on June 10 and an October build (4 months from order to build)? That is a pretty impressive turnaround - might be a record (if it happens).
