Lol well lets be honest. It can't be ahead in a true sense. It's not the M2. As I hinted at the payments will reflect that. I don't need it to be an M2 but I do want it to be quicker and handle as tightly as a stock m2 and that's pretty easy to do.

Summary: No dealer knows anything official.
CA talked to sales manager who had just come back from California where they had some sort of learning experience about the 7er which was being introduced. He apparently talked to a BMW rep about M2 orders and that was the response. As always we don't know if the rep had any real inside information or whether it's part of their marketing plan. BMW could teach DoD a thing or two about misdirection and keeping secrets.

CA's are clueless unless its in front of them. The Genius supports the stupidity beyond reason.

Weeeeeeeell...

I'm a CA, and I was down in Miami for the 7 release and training as well. Spoke with a gentleman from NA about the M2 as well.

Long story short. BMW is getting a "great response" from the 2 series and are in no rush to produce the M2 he said he is hoping for US dealers to start receiving the first ones in MAYBE May.

Now do I know if he was telling the truth? Of course not.

But I am more than happy to pass along any info that I know.

Heh. Sounds more like a marketing ploy to push more ppl into a 235 immediately instead of waiting for the M2. Knowing you would pass the info down...

I think the M2 will show up in a timeline similar to that of the X4 M40i. The X4 M40i is going to be publicly introduced in November (LA Auto show). It will show up in the dealer systems shortly after that, and be in US showrooms in February.

The key is the public introduction. When will the M2 be publicly introduced?

a) At the Tokyo show (October)? If yes, in the dealer systems for ordering November. In US showrooms February/March
b) At the LA Auto show (November)? If yes, in the dealer systems for ordering November/December. In US showrooms February/ March
c) Detroit Auto show (January, NAIAS)? If yes, in the dealer systems for ordering January. In the showrooms April.

That's my guess.

I have great relationships that were built on value not BS. So I don't really care... 99% of the truth is here not at the CA level.

More like a story.

Stories are not always true.

There will be several years of production.
