Sounds like they sold you a future allocation. I ordered 3/12 and got a production number immedialtey before leaving the store. The car was just built last week and is now waiting to get on a boat.

If you have other dealers in the area you could see if an of them have a may build allocation avialable.

If they said their expecting your car to be a June build date, you probably wont get a production number till May.

I ordered my car at the end of february and didnt get a production number till end of march / begining of april. Im set for May production (week 18)

Ordered my car in early March for a ED in the beginning of July, got a production number in 2 weeks from order, but no beginning of production week yet. Production is usually 4 weeks prior to ED and 8 weeks prior to stateside delivery. CA should be able to get production numbers fairly fast.

If things are running smoothly and you are on the east coast where your car will come in at NY (first stop) you can have your car between 4-5 weeks after prodcution completion. Normal delivery times on orders if an immediate allocation is available is 8-9 weeks (again, if your port is NY). Many on 335 coupes are waiting 12+ weeks.My 335 cpe is on pace to be in my garage in 10 weeks.

That's what they told me (12 weeks) - I think it's a disclaimer so people don't get mad if it ends up being that long for some reason), but I am getting on the boat at 5 weeks and should be here somewhere between 9-10 weeks.
