Just happened to check on the BMW site and was surprised to see that the dealer ordered "Anthracite Alcantara headliner" instead which is truly opposite of what we wanted.

Though the order was placed just 2 days ago, the dealer could not change the order to "Alcantara headliner in upholstery color"; apparently the BMW system is not allowing them to change even though on the tracking site, it is on the very first step as "order received."

The worst part of this is the dealer would have to probably trade the car, and is looking for another allocation since he does not have any build allocation soon. Therefore, the car is going to be delayed at least a few weeks.

Hoping that MF does not change for the worse, if the car is ordered in March instead of February. Just to clarify, the order was all done by email so I did not sit with the dealer manager while he was entering the order in the BMW system.

Hope that helps!
Oh what a bummer. Is it still in production scheduled ?
