My 12/8 production date is delayed. Noooooooo

Just got an update that my car which was scheduled for production on 12/8 is now delayed with no update on date. This fn sucks since my CS lease is up 1/25/22. The delay is probably because of carbon seats or laser lights. I got all the options pretty much except for CCB and exterior carbon package. I know I can extend the lease, but the plan was to trade the CS in January as due since production started on the g80, and just wait for the g80 and save some $$$, probably $2k, since it's winter and car is going to be parked in the garage. The worst part is that depending on how long the delay is, I might not get the g80 until April now and then the LCi and the new CS is going to be out 7/22. Plus the fact that I'm loosing value putting on miles on the CS and I'm already 31k on a 30k lease which means I can't really drive it anyway. Man, I really thought I was in the clear since I had a production date a week away. 😭

The G80 CS won't be out until August 2023 (not 2022), so no need to worry about that, and the LCI will likely be mild.

You might consider buying out your lease, then selling it for a nice profit whenever your M3 does arrive.

Factories are not open in December..you won't get your car til summer just a heads up. So I'd buy your car now and sell it for a profit . Which you'll make guaranteed

My CS lease is up on 2/1 but my G80 will be here in 2-3 weeks. I'm taking my CS to a couple places tomorrow for appraisals to see what kind of profit I can make buying out the lease then turning around and selling it.

I feel your paint but this needs to go in the builds section and not general. Someone please give me mod privileges!

Holidays. They close after the first week of December I think.

My CS lease is up in Jan and I don't even have a build date yet. I doubt it's worth it to extend my lease or buy out. I'll probably just try and sell it and be without an M car for a few months. Maybe I'll change my order to include the carbon fiber seats with the money I'll be saving on insurance!

I got an allocation a few days ago and still waiting for system to update with a build date but dealer thinks it's going to be January. Hopefully no more delays, but I feel like everything is up in the air nowadays

I'm sorry to hear about that but with this market you have to be mentally prepared for the worst. Hopefully you can make due with getting rid of the lease or buying it out and renting a beater for a few months.

Found out today I'm pushed back from 12/8 to 2/6 now. WTF. That's 2 extra months of excruciating waiting. I'm already on the forums 10 times a day at this point. 😂

Ouch! That is one hell of a delay.

Good thing you are in the US, at least shipping is quick, it takes six weeks on a ship to get to AUS then compliance and local delivery. Close enough to 8 weeks if no delay.

Understand the 10 times on the forum thing. Me too. Think we need to see someone about that.

Time is flying, hopefully it will pass quick.

The factories will close at the second week of December for holiday. Your allocation technically got pushed a month, still pretty painful though
