To my knowledge I'm not first or even second on the local list but my salesguy emailed me the price guide as soon as it was available said he was ready to prepare my order. I wonder if 'the list' is as important as someone stepping up and specifying their order. That or maybe the orders go in regardless of insight to their allocation.
No hard data but if they are about to input their orders maybe we'll see these in spring instead of summer? |

I inquired yesterday and was told: the first build allocations will be released at the end of January; not every dealer will get allocations in January; first deliveries will likely take place in April.

His words (via email) were: "Please let me know when you'd like to talk about your exact order."
I provided my specifics to him and will probably give him a call next week to see what they believe is going on. I don't think this indicates that the order books have opened. It may just be a way to see which buyers are serious as they line up initial inputs. |

I am not a student of BMW's ordering process but "That or maybe the orders go in regardless of insight to their allocation." does not imply that allocations have been released. They are gathering information.. not sure what they plan to do with it. |

But maybe there are other company politics or dealer competition issues that makes it hard to do the simple thing... |

I guess we will know very soon because the first production month is February and it is a very short production year. |
