Individual Color 2021 X6M Production/Ordering Question

Hi All,

A current M3 and former 2017 X5 owner here - I'm pulling the trigger on a 2021 Grigio Telesto X6M Competition through a broker who's working with a reputable high-volume East Coast dealer that is an expert in working with BMW individual/ production slots.

I placed my deposit beginning of January and feedback has been my individual production slot/timing is still up in the air and they haven't been able to give me an idea of when it'll get produced/delivered. Right now they're estimating April delivery with 12-week lead time - but again can't seem to provide me with any confirmation/concrete timing.

Question is: with individual being new to SC plant, is this type of ambiguity normal (other members experiencing same thing) or am I being jerked around by dealer? Reason I'm going with them is a 10% discount off MSRP but wanted to get everyone's feedback. But having my $5K deposit taken by dealer with no idea when I'm getting the thing is slightly concerning.



Thanks in advance!

as you know, no production number no allocation. Maybe they dont have a allocation yet so they are waiting for that and then they can place your order. Allocation roll out each month so if that is the case hopefully they have one for you soon.

also keep in mind with east coast dealers you are only able to lock in programing etc. for 60 days. So if you dont receive the car within the 60 day window you will need to re apply to lock in programs. Its 90 days for west coast dealers.

also just remember % off MSRP is just part of the deal. Make sure to look at the whole deal

Lead times are 11 weeks for any Individual paint colors in Spartanburg (once the color has been released for production).
