Not sure if there's much of a difference though? I guess the only issue would be if they aren't able to get the allocation in June I'd be out a car…
**Update: at this point dealership with June production is willing to make the deposit fully refundable up to the point the vehicle goes into production. I'm still working on getting the deposit truly fully refundable.

The reality is that any respectable dealership worth its weight will have ZERO problem reselling any M3/M4 provided it's not a completely off putting colour/interior combo. So they wouldn't need to hold a deposit without refunding. These cars are in very high demand and production is not able to keep up.
Also, in Ontario if a deal is signed and the car isn't delivered within three months I think you can get your deposit back. But rules may be different in every province.
Lastly, if you're trying to time to your production/delivery with your lease end I've heard BMW is extending leases for 3 months but not a day more. They are asking for the cars back so they can be resold CPO. So if there are any delays, you will definitely be out a car. Mine was originally scheduled for Sept production but got bumped to Nov (completed production) And now it's sitting in Bremerhaven port in recall/retrofit purgatory.
