Production Number?
Hey guys, just put in a deposit for a custom build Z4 on Friday (m40i, handschalter,) and according to the dealer-
They put in the order but now waiting for it to be “accepted” by the factory and get a production number. They don’t have an estimated time. What do I expect next? |

If they don't have an allocation to give you, and there is no one else ahead of you in line at your dealer, possibly a month or longer. They only get allocations once a month and the prevailing wisdom and math says every dealer is getting about one Z4 M40i per month, on average.

I have gotten production numbers in a day or few days on the cars I have ordered. Only miss was on a 2011 1 series. Kept getting stalled by the dealer. Saw a 2011 335is I liked at a competitor, bought it & cancelled the other 1 series. All but 2 of my cars have been ordered. First question I ask the dealer is do you have an allocation for xxx?

You may want to call a few other dealers to see if they have an allocation. Worth an hour or so of your time.

This. And don't wait. I wasted a few weeks waiting for an allocation at my closest dealer...called another dealer an hour away who had an allocation sitting there waiting for me. I'm now "scheduled for production"
