I now see that a deposit should have been made after an allocation was secured.
To all of you who have an allocation, did you get confirmation directly from BMW, or just from your dealer?

When I ordered my last two vehicles, my CA printed out a Vehicle Inquiry report. It showed the ordered configuration,
Production Number, sold to: with my name in the field, and Status: 112 Scheduled for Production.
As an unsold allocation, they were in the system as Status 111. Once it was marked as sold to a customer, they jumped to Status 112.
If it doesn't have a Production Number, there is no allocation.
