Same over here in Belgium. You could reserve an M2 CS allocation through a dedicated website subject to the payment of a €1.5K refundable "reservation fee". If no sale materialized, the slot went back to BMW Belux (Belgium + Luxembourg) and the reservation fee was refunded. This helps avoiding coin-flippers to "sell" their slot.

Still to date, M2 CS slots are available out of 131 M2 CS cars for Belgium + Luxembourg. Discounts negotiable. No waiting lists. No markups. No VIP status requirements.
