CRAPOLA anyone else lose their quoted production week yet?
I was just told BMW has requested sales reps no longer quote production weeks because their is ALOT of shuffling going on. I also received confirmation of the 19" wheel shortage/outage. BMW moved my production from second week Feb to third week March!!

Ouch...guess that means my week 10 production is going to get pushed back. I assume you already had a production number and are status 112?

Mine went into production right on time (after two pull-ins). But I have neither M-DCT or 19". I'm guessing I was a beneficiary of the shuffling

Mine made it to 150 before the 19" shortage issue, luckily. Sorry for those held up!

Awww hell,
Now I won't be able to sleep because this will be on my mind until I talk with my CA Friday. Man, I can't afford a slip in production. |

I got a follow-up message today. I am now back up to week 8 production, that's in two weeks. Sounds as if it may stick, but there was one note...IF the 19" wheel shortage crps up for week 8 production can cause problems. I also decided to go with MDCT if I can get it in week 8, man, I'm gettting restless, I want to be in the driver's seat yesterday!!
OT - I talked to a BMW dealer in central Cali yesterday while visiting family. They claimed Los Angeles dealers were getting anywhere from 7K-25K over MSRP, but they would sell to me for 5K over. Then they dropped to 2.5K over...of course I was just testing the market here. Anyone hear of 25K over sticker?? Sounded crazy to me, but maybe someone had to be first?

Davo, did you have a production number before they pulled your date back?

As far as 25K over, what you have to remember is, 25K is like $1 to many people, they just have money like water. So, to be guaranteed the first M3 in LA for example, plenty will pay the premium. It's nothing to many people.
