thanks spiderz17, would love more info from you....

ok, so i just left a $1k deposit with them... From what i understand BMW HQ will see how many ppl have deposits down and then figure out if they will build more, correct? My lady said maybe in August she will know... that'd be great, since that's when I PCS, and can pick up a Z for around $36k. Money is an object, but i figured 1m would not depriciate much, and i was planning to keep it for a while. I don't want just a car, i'd love to have a sport car, and not expensive...

big problem for me in Germany is Insurance, USAA quotes/cars i considered:
996TT $9k a year
M3 $5.5k a year
370z $6.5k a year
C63AMG $6k a year
Z06 $3.5k a year (something i can afford).
S4 $4k a year.

All those car insurances would cost me around $100 in Jersey.

I am 26, no points in past 3 years. 2 insurance reports (one 3 yrs ago, car was hit while parked, during a snow storm. second 8 months ago someone smashed a window stole a sterio). USAA says there's nothing on my file that is bad, just that all those cars are pricey...

Was really loking closely at M3's, but insurance would kill me... and another minus is gas milage... I plan on road triping thru europe.
