WTH? SA told me no allocation information and can't place order yet?
Seems like most people on this forum are reporting that their dealer have received information on allocation of the M4 and started placing orders.
But one of the dealers I spoke to in Texas (which I'm also on their waiting list) told me they have no info on allocation and can't place any order, and the SA stated that their manager called BMW NA and that's what BMW told them. WTH is going on here? Really dumb SA and manager or BMW actually release the allocation information differently? |

By Launch Allocation you mean the dealer's demo car?

Yes, but some folks have been offered to buy a launch car rather than waiting until April for when customer car orders open up. I was offered to buy one of my dealer's launch M4s.

What's the bad thing about the launch cars?

Well at this piont they are probably already ordered in a specific configuration. For me it was that I want an M4 not an M3.
If they would have offered me the launch M4 and it had decent options/color I probably would have taken it. Someone already has it locked up. |

My dealer in Bay Area showed me his allocation sheet for all his vehicles and showed me his numbers for 2014, including the M3 and M4. Said he just got the updated allocation info for his dealer last Friday.

Any folks in Austin on the list for BMW of Austin? My SA knows how eager I am but I have no idea how far down the list I am. I asked him to get me on the"waiting list" about this time last year. Hasn't even asked for a deposit yet...so the "list" must be very fluid.
I've bought 2 cars from these guys so they know I'm serious about buying the car. |

As I type this, the ONLY modifiable M3/M4 in the US are the dealer launch cars aka HEA cars. People on the forum who have received a production # means that whatever dealer they are working with, offered to sell them their HEA car. Every M3/M4 put in to the order bank will show up as 047-Status, which means no production slot available. This is true because allocations slots have not been divided yet amongst dealers. Furthermore, no dealer can mark the 047-Status cars for European Delivery until allocation have been given out by BMW AG/BMW USA or else they will be deleted in the order bank if marked for European Delivery.
