BMW Tri Cities Experience?

Anyone have experience with BMW of Tri Cities? I placed an order for a G80 a month ago and they originally mentioned I was third on their list but when I asked my CA for update they gave me a super vague answer of "there's still a few people ahead of you".

I am on the list for BMW of Bellevue but I am 10th on that list and I'm 1st on the list for a dealer in the SW. I'll most likely end up going with the out of state dealer although I'll be losing roughly $5k in tax credit from a trade in and the dealer quoted me an additional $1800 to ship me the car plus a non-negotiable $500 fee for LoJack.

They are probably a low volume dealer so allocations might be hard to come by....

BMW Seattle is in my opinion the best dealer in the area and the highest volume one.... London the GM is a cool guy

Yeah I figured they are low volume. My CA said they've delivered 6 M3's since the G80 was released. I would have gone to BMW Seattle but the waitlist is over a year out last time I checked. I thought about an M4 for a bit since allocations are easier to come by but I actually like iDrive 8 the more I've looked into it and that put me off.

Update: They actually have been really great to work with thus far and I got an allocation for a G80 last week.
