I've dreamed of owning a car like this since i was in elementary school. And sometimes as an adult it feels like you're chasing that feeling you had when you were a kid as Christmas or a birthday was approaching. With PCD approaching, this is probably the closest I've ever felt to that in my adult life. The whole experience is just so damn exciting. And then to think of all of the fun memories I'll make with this car, the new friends I've already made or will make, etc... OP, so glad you were able to secure an allocation. Enjoy the experience!!!!

Congrats to the OP on getting his order placed.
I dragged my heels forever, thinking there was more time, but I got the last allocation my dealer had on Memorial Day 5/31. Had a VIN and notification it was in the production queue by 6/3. |

That sold it for me
I was considering M240i with the LSD. What was the final straw that made you upgrade to a M2?

I also just want to say thanks to everyone who helped and contacted me via pm. I had a lot of suggestions for dealerships with possible allocations and words of advice and encouragement for finding one of these at the last minute.
I am really grateful for the time and support from everyone. I understand this is just a car, and this is probably ridiculous, but I'm excited and appreciative about rejoining the community. Thank you. |

Here's the question - does OP have the very last allocation of any of the forum users?
Happy to see you scored an allocation

Mine has been on the same status, "Today's the day: your BMW has entered the production queue" since Thursday 6/3. Will let you know when it moves ahead. Can't be much longer...or can it?

Mostly aesthetics. Carbon lip, winglets, interior carbon, new steering wheel. Maybe HREs in the future. Performance wise I'm not looking to drop anything major on the car for awhile, if ever. I might round out the M Performance Exhaust with an intake though. I had a 2020 STI that was my previous toy which I sold earlier this year and chasing HP #'s can be a slippery slope. The fact the DME is locked, and I don't want to jump straight to a pinned crank hub is probably better for my wallet too. I'm less inclined to bump HP if I can't tune it and I won't go piggyback. Just looking to personalize and build out a fun cruiser. One thing that has me really curious is if the new G8X M3/4 Carbon seats will fit. |

In too many words I basically said I believe I will be happy with the vehicles power so I wont be adding a bunch of additional performance parts, and that I just want to add a bunch of look good carbon stuff to it.

Jumped from Production Begins yesterday afternoon all the way to Assembly in Progress today, 10 days from when it went 150.
Moving along nicely now! Still very grateful for all the eyes and ears that helped me locate this.
