This is very strange. I took delivery on April 8th and it was included. I note that I ordered the car in January. When did your friend order the car?

I agree, as I took delivery on April 6th and my dealer had no problems with the fleet discount. My friend was denied in May even though he took delivery in April. His dealer is just being a jackass.

The M2 was taken off Fleet as of May 2, 2017 - if you had a priority order in the order bank prior to this date, you still qualify. Priority 1 = Customer Sold Unit - doesn't matter if you have an allocation yet. I got it in writing from BMW. Hope this helps.

Thanks, that's helpful info. I have it in writing that my order was P1 with an email from my dealer that they'd honor the fleet discount, but all of that was back in April. Car won't arrive until July so fingers crossed I won't have issues then.

My car just reached port and it should arrive at the dealer next week, so I emailed them for a general update and got this:
The corporate program no longer supports the M2. I am working with BMW to get an exception. Hopefully the dealer can sort it out but I'll call BMW Corporate if that's what it takes.

However, I recently picked up an allocation at another dealer who had an open slot and they got an exception from BMW :-) and I'm getting the $2500 off although not buying from the original dealer that I had the order pending. Thus, things are not impossible :-) |

I'd be interested in how any of you are actually getting your dealers to honor this or make an exception. I have an order on a 2018 that's status 150, and the dealer is telling me he is unable to get an exception through BMW to honor the $2500 discount.
Here's the other thing...I actually picked this order up in progress when another buyer backed out. So I'm guessing, but not sure, that the order went Priority 1 prior to May 2nd. How do I find that out? |

Also, the previous posters' cars were all MY17's and only a few weeks of production of those ran into this issue. MY18 is excluded altogether. Last edited by gmzanatta; 07-13-2017 at 08:36 AM.. |

Good to hear your recent experience on still getting the discount, fingers crossed! My car is MY17 and it's also my understanding that no MY18 cars are eligible.

Awesome. Maybe corporate wanted to verify the orders that weren't delivered by May 2?
