When I placed the deposit at the end of September, they were aiming for December delivery, but then they told me that they had no quota for the car so I had to wait. They gave me the option of February or March production, and at that point I chose March for the new iDrive.

I'm in the same boat as you on this, but from the reviews that I have read, written by people who's opinion I regard highly, along with the performance figures and the reviews of the people here on the forum, I don't think either of us has anything to worry about.

Same here. I was dealing with a regular sales person originally, I kept following with him when they were going to release a price/open a spot for a month. Then my brother had a speak with the manager in the showroom by chance, the next day I gave him a call and within an hour I had a rough price range. From now on, I won't deal with sales people, the manager is where the business is at.
