Week 12 !
Got some updated info from BMW Genius today 3 weeks after placing my order.
Looks like the car will begin production on week 12: March 20 - March 26. I went with 6MT Mineral Grey + CarPlay. No other options. I've owned some fast'ish / fun cars and always wanted to own an M car. The 1 series was my favorite BMW line and the 1M is as close to my idea of a perfect car (for the money, before massive markups) as you can get. So, naturally, the M2 was a no brainer for me. Excited! Anyone else week 12? Last edited by MineralGreyMetallic; 01-27-2017 at 05:53 PM.. |

Congrats! Now the fun begins!
If you are week 12, that would be when you car FINISHES production. Will begin production a week or two prior.

Woot woot, thanks for starting a week 12 thread. I'm week 12 as well.
LBB Manual Apple car Play Debating on adding the executive and removing apple car play. I kind of want the backup camera because I have to backup in a weird spot daily. |

I had a backup camera in my 2015 STI and it was invaluable. I just don't think the executive package, for me, is worth the cost just for the camera. I'm hoping the proximity sensors are sufficient. I also back into a weird space every day... Maybe I should just get the damn thing. |

Bite the bullet and get the exec package! maybe it's just that when i had smaller kids, i was always worried about backing up over someone or something, but it's a small price for the peace of mind. Congrats and Enjoy!!

Week 12 here also, LBB DCT Executive Apple. Took me six months to get allocation, weather in Ohio for next few months will be crappy so that makes waiting a few more months not too bad, at least that is what I am telling myself to make the wait a little easier!

Initially I was only interested in the rear view camera, but driver assist, WIFI hotspot, automatic high beams, and speed limit info all sound super useful. I see that it lists park distance control (rear) as a feature, but isn't that already standard with the M2? |

Hard to say. Official notice is the new tires will be available in the US in March. Not sure what that will mean for cars produced in Germany, where the tires are already available.

Bizarre, me too! Popular, yet way less popular than most of the cars out there. The gray is incredible with the flares. I'm still thinking about a stealth wrap on it.

Where are you ordering from? Audi Willoughby has a LBB DCT Executive + CP in their showroom... Only downside is that it has the stupid M Driver's Package on it so they of course want to collect for that. Plus they're asking over MSRP but I'm guessing you could probably work them down if you want one sooner.
