Hmmm, that can't be right (I hope). BMW did state production starts in March, but not heard them say a specific date. If it starts on Mar 28th, then I can see why 14 cars. LOL

Interesting. If this is true and it continues to be a slow release I wonder how many people will choose to cancel their order?

Much less actually! Take 1 month off during summer shut down. Then discount for long weekends and holidays like Easter, Xmas, national days, etc. So that is probably close to 2 months of no activity. You're left with 7 clean months of production.

And let's not forget during Sept is Oktoberfest, definitely don't want a car produced then! LOL

Oh Man, feel for you, that is a long wait. May be cheaper to get one from the US and import it. Actually scratch that, it's not like we have an abundance of those either

I was more thinking of the oktoberfest thing, but maybe they never heard of
it in Leipzig? Anyways they better fix mine as it should or else it may well be the first on resale here.

Very much appreciated.

My CA said the dealership wanted my permission to display the car for a week when it arrives. It was impossible for me to ask for anything in return, being that I am getting one at all.

Ha ha. Toughest part for Red would be knowing his car is there, he'll have to held at home in restraints!

Red, if I were you, I would insist car be locked at all times. You don't want traffic in and out of it.

Red,

I know this doesn't effect prod. date, but out of curiosity, when did you put your deposit down, and how much? If you don't mind me asking
