When will the 2013 1 Series configurator be online (U.S. site)?

The 2013 pricing and ordering guides have been out for a while, so when does everyone think we can expect the 2013 1 Series configurator to launch on the U.S. site?

Well at least its been announced in your country. In Australia we have had no announcement even. We are getting the F20 M135i later this year so it isn't clear whether they will sell the E82 135i in parallel.

It's just a time zone issue -- you'll probably get the announcement in a few hours.

But we are actually ahead of you, time zone wise.

Sure, but you're assuming we're in the same year.

Seriously, it might be hard for them to sell the F20 and E82 side by side. Then again, that's what's happening here with the 3 Series (F30 and E92/93). I'm always curious how that impacts sales.

You could always inquire at the BMWNA web site.

For Australia, the more I hear nothing the more I assume we aren't getting the 2013 E82 and instead they are creating a period of 'silence' so as to create a splash for the F20 M135i later this year.

You can use bmwconfig.com in the mean time.
