Anyone else planning for 2017?

Just locked up spot #18 at STBMW with David Aviles. Planning ED Spring/Summer '17 with ED MSRP agreed upon in writing. Personally, I like to wait out the launch year for a wide variety of reasons, but from everything I'm hearing this car looks to be a definite winner

Anyone else thinking long term, or were just late to the party?

I am on a couple of lists. I was supposed to be 4 on my local dealers list but it turns out each sales guy was keeping list of contacts, pretty amateur stuff really. Anyway I am just above you with David, also on a couple of other lists where I am higher but because I was assured by my local dealer back in October I was good I didn't join the other lists till late. I am still hoping for a car this calendar year, I think it is pretty likely, not sure what year the car will be though.

If you are planning on doing summer ED in 2017,wait until Aug or Sept to pick up your M2.BMW will start producing the 2018 production year in July 2017 and the 2 series and M2 will both be getting the LCI in the 2018 production year.

LMU Drew, May of 2017 is my plan for ED as well. Wife knows I'll be getting a new car in 2017, but doesn't know I'm going to set up this purchase with a European trip for our 30th anniversary.

Yeah. I'm trying to push it to late summer for that very reason.

Soonest I could get mine, but the timing just happened to work out. There are 18 people on David's list (me being the last) as of yesterday.

Anyone on here on the waiting list with the top 3 spots at STBMW? I'm number 4 on their list with $1k deposit. Getting nervous they aren't contacting me to order!

Have you reached out at all? They've been quick to answer all my questions and finer detail type stuff, and I'm still a year out.

Yeah I reached out last Monday. David said no allocations yet but there are people in front of me so I might still be a month or so out to order.

I'll contact him again next week to see how many allocations he is expecting.
