All certified M dealers will be the first to receive their allocations. That is one car per dealer. The certified M dealers that achieved their M targets in 2010 will receive an additional allocation. That additional allocation will be speced cars from BMW SA. These speced cars will be fully loaded with extras.
Allocation as follows: May.......13 Jun........13 Jul..........5 Aug........6 Sep........7 Oct.........5 Nov.........8 Dec........7 Production total for SA 64 |

Not confirmed on the bulletin but BMW SA does this to give customers that have not ordered a car a chance to get one. These prices can go up to R650 000 with all the extras.

I am number one on the list and i am still getting a speced car. This therefore wont be one of the additional allocations. Do you this it will still be a fully speced machine.... That really would suck R650k ouch. you can get a M3 nowadays for that price due to the discounts now given...

There 51 BMW dealers in SA, of those only 16 are M certified and 35 non M certified. The first allocation will be for the top 13 perfoming dealers, plus an additinal allocation for them. So the top 13 performing M certified dealers will get 2 cars totaling 26 cars. The bottom 3 M certified dealers will get one car each bringing the total to 29 cars. That will leave the non M certifed dealers (51 - 16) 35 of them a car each which will be pre specced. Thats my understanding. |

I have been told the reason why BMWSA is selling pre specced cars is because they want to make as much money as they can on options. With limited number of cars, they won't make much profit so they are putting options upfront to maximize profits.
This is against the new Consumer protection Act I'm told, them selling us specs we don't want on a new car. |
