We know that FilthyMonkey actually bought a real demo in the UK, but has there been one report of an American dealer calling a customer and offering a demo for sale as-is once they receive the car? What are the odds of that? Perhaps the first cars are customer cars? I have yet to see a single report on this board stating that a dealer has told a member that a demo would be there on March 29th We assume there’ll be some but no semi-official word. How can we assume that a significant portion of the first shipments aren’t customer cars?

I don't mean to turn this into a debate over nothing, as it really doesn't matter what the initial cars are or aren't, but here is some more info--true or false--that's been posted on this forum.

That said, OCkid recently said on one of his posts that his dealer has told him they would be keeping the demo car they are getting, and that as soon as it arrives, he is welcome to take it out for a test drive. Another post said there are less than 200 US cars being built during the first pass, which suggests full scale US production has not yet started, or is about to start. Meaning, not all dealers have gotten an allocation. If there was a full scale effort to get the 6MTs out as you are suggesting, this forum should have been flooded with US members with cars that are in production or have been produced, which clearly is not the case. |

^ ...Tim, I'm not going with anybody else. To clarify Lucid's post above, I never said it was from my dealer...Sterling BMW (the local guys) just replied to the BMWNA M3 postcard I filled out a while back.
...but while you're here, any news for us?

You can't. Timsev said he would give me $10k off for all the kind words and referrals from this board, right Tim?

this all makes no sense to me. My dealer (morristown BMW) said they had a car scheduled to arive and be delivered to a customer by Jan 30/ Feb 1. They said they have 3-4 cars coming there way before the end of Feb and then more once the production gets ramped up. Did BMW just pull the rug out from underneath them?

No more news guys. It's pretty much just a waiting game right now. And the dealer that said they would have one this month was probably just estimating. No one will get a car until the official release.
Epacy, let me see what I can do. If I do take off $10k, do you know if your company is hiring? And lucid, I'll make you an offer you can't refuse......two keychains! I'll go ahead and get the paperwork ready. |

I know it's from the other dealer. Don't worry, you didn't hurt my feelings.
