Discussion for those awaiting an allocation

If you are currently waiting for an allocation, please create a post with the following:

· Date(s) allocation(s) requested (allowing for requests at multiple dealerships)
· Model
· Country (/ State)

Once you have received your allocation, create a new post in this thread with:

· Date allocation received (and specific date requested, if requests were made at multiple dealerships)
· Dealership Name (if you feel comfortable sharing)

Remember, there is no centrally managed queue for those waiting for allocations, so wait times will depend on the supply / demand at your dealership(s) which can vary wildly by region. But, I will try to compile the data in the OP for a few months to see if there is any observable trend.

Correct me if I am wrong GOLFFRR, but without an allocation, all one really has is the expression of interest to a dealership (or dealerships) that they would like to order a car. My understanding is that the process of placing an order with corporate / the place of assembly does not happen until one can actually claim an available allocation. In other words, while a dealership can keep a record of your desired specifications during your first conversation (or any other time prior to actually placing an order), the order cannot actually be registered into the system until an allocation opens up. Is that right?

unfortunately a lot of people don't know that if you dont get a production number you don't have an allocation so again unfortunately a lot of sales rep can feed buyers false info to keep them on the hook for a long time. But correct without a production number/allocation you are just someone waiting with no guarantee of a car. You are at the mercy of the allocation and the dealer who issues that specific allocation.

Yuuuuup

Good news for you though... I'm waiting on an M3 Base. Unfortunate typo from before from copy/paste from a previous reply.

I'm next in line out of three that were ahead of me for M3C. CA said they received no allocations for May. It's been a looooong wait. Hoping for one to drop in June. Who's your CA? Mine is Darion.

I was right behind you on the M3 comp list, I stopped by two weeks ago to tell them that I'll take anything that will become available for allocation first. Now I don't feel too bad seeing how long you've waited. I'm working with Alex.

Just sold my F80 and getting stupid impatient, it's a daily battle of emotions for me. There's a SPY M4 comp on consignment for $104k! I put a lowball offer of $76k, $2k over MSRP hoping they would bite. Lmao

There's a few putter island ones that were for sale but I really want carbon buckets so it's a deal breaker.

What color combo you going with because that's been killing me as well?

I don't mind waiting, man. This is my third M3 that I've ordered and I've gotten used to the wait to get the spec I want. I'm going with M3C of course, BGM over Fiona Red with 825M Orbit Gray wheels. I've been back and forth so many times. I'm waiting to see if Skyscraper Gray is added to the MY22 colors. If so, I may go that over Fiona Red. What about you?
