M2 Competition - Pull ahead timing question
Hello all. I Currently lease a F10 535i but have been lurking the M2/M3/M4 forums for a while. My lease on the 5er ends 11/2018. After spending the day in the M240i during a BMW Performance Day in SC, I really enjoyed the car, and quite contrary to my prior opinion, it was deceivingly roomy and I didn't feel in the least bit cramped. Anyways, I've been following the numerous rumors over the last few months and it appears that the new model M2 featuring the S55 looks to be going into production somewhere between March-June of 2018, at least according to rumors.
Given I'm sure many of you who currently have the F82 experienced various delays, wait times and I'm sure lease pull aheads - do you have any insight around when I should begin speaking with dealers around putting a deposit down for an allocation? As soon as a formal announcement is made? Now? If they announce beginning of 2018, or February etc, would that be too early to begin the process given my lease doesn't end until November 18? I've done some searching but figured if pick some of your brains, given I'm sure there has been some experiences with extended wait times given demand. |

You should start talking to dealerships pronto and be willing to wait a little to get a good deal. |

M2 Competition starts production in July 2018, you need to go to the dealer asap and talk to them about putting down a deposit or getting on the list (my local dealer already has a long list btw). Also call around other dealers and try to get on multiple lists if possible.
