Ordered 09 E90 M3

03SG///M3 · 05-05-2009, 08:31 AM

I finally sold my E46 M3

and I placed my order for my E90 M3

(AW, cloth, MDCT, Tech pck, 19's, iPod, BMW assist, fold down seats). I ordered it about a week and a half ago and I still don't have a production number. I asked my BMW advisor and he said sometimes they will release a production number when its already buillt. He told me it should be about 5 to 6 weeks from order date. This seems strange to me as many members on here have received their production number as soon as they placed the order.

You should definitely get a production number before your car is built. If you order really early you may not get a production number if your dealer does not have allocation for your car yet. But, give the current market conditions, I would be shocked to hear if a dealer did not have enough allocation for an M3. They should have a production number for you, otherwise you don't really have a car on order yet.

I ordered my E92 M3 on Friday and got my production number.

Well I ordered two cars, an E92 M3 and 328i and I still got my M3 prod. number on Monday. I just got my 328i prod. number today. lol

The dealer should not be giving you a hard time on getting the production #. They should prove their worth and strength of their customer service.

I have heard stories of dealers when times were good doing stuff like this. They would take an order from you and not give you a production number. If a customer came along after you and they could make a more profitable deal with that person, they would bump you down the line. Since you had no production number they would get away with it.

I can't see the dealership not giving me the truth as I'm a repeat customer. I hope to get a production number by next week.
