Put a deposit for a waiting list today and am number 12 at a dealer who hasn't gotten any cars yet but they are a huge dealer so I am not worried nor in a rush! They are saying I won't make MY16 which I am fine with because my m235i is still under lease and I will get closer to a time when I can get out of the lease easier.

Which dealer? Its odd to me how few cars tristate dealers have gotten.

There is no way you'd make MY16 even if you were #1 on any dealer's list.

Really? I think there are actually a lot of members from NY and/or out of state members that have already picked up their cars in NJ/NY/PA including myself.

But aren't those cars primarily, maybe even solely, HEA cars? How many cars that are non-HEA, but instead configurable allocations, have been delivered anywhere in the States?

Definitely a lot were HEA cars but the more recent ones are configured orders.

Many of the HEA cars were configurable some have said.

My gut tells me normal allocations will be MY2017.

I got a late HEA car. Was originally going to be AW but changed it over to BSM. Wasn't a big deal as it hadn't started production yet. Not sure about the transmission or Exec Pkg. It was how I wanted otherwise. That said it didn't seem like a big deal to change it out. I felt like I got a configurable M2 in my HEA. Only thing I didn't get was a trip to Munich.

To clear up the misconception:

ALL HEA allocations are technically configurable. It just comes down to whether the dealership has a particular common build they use (based on local factors) or allows the customer to pick those choices.

Congrats! I'm very surprised you were able to get #12 this late in the game! I am close to a large volume dealer in Dallas, and their list was already at 30 over a month ago.

I wonder how truthful they are about their list numbers...

I actually just switched some things around and got #5 at another dealer and they are taking me out of my leased M235i now so I can enjoy no payments until the M2 arrives
