I confess that the new lower price for the P coupled with the fact that they are now allowing interested individuals to jump in front of those waiting for the cheaper models and order one immediately are making this vehicle a more tempting proposition.

That’s definitely it because that’s the only model on the road.

The short-range/premium, long-range/non-premium, and short-range/non-premium (the coveted, mythical $35k model) models aren’t being built yet because they don’t have enough margin in them to be profitable at the current cost per vehicle. And the AWD and Performance models just went into production so those aren’t in customers' hands yet.

You’ll get it in one to three months according to the website. Sure, that’s to be treated with skepticism. But, the new M3 is two years away minimum, so it’s safe to say you’ll have it before then.
