I ordered mine at the same time as you and have been told September but no firm delivery date, what did the dealer say when you pressed them for a date?

The dealers had no idea how limited supply would be in 2016, I'm second on the list at my local dealer and their second car is coming September.

Ordered 11th Nov.
I have a screen shot from the BMW order system showing that the car was '1100 scheduled' on the 14th Dec. It also says production week no. is 36 and delivery week no. is 39. So mid to end of September I guess.
I believe I'm car no.2 of 3 expected in 2016 from a North East Dealer. Just keep asking your dealer as I'd be amazed if they didn't have something on their system.

Speaking to someone in BMW last week. Apparently the prodcution line for 2-series(Leipzig) is in real bother, hence this delay. They just dont have capacity for the demand and no clear commnuicated strategy to address it. There are murmurs of a second line, at which point the plug will come out and M2's speed through.

I wouldnt want to be a speculator on one these, I'd be selling very very soon after I took delivery. Given it isnt a limted run, as soon as normal build times resume, prices will plummet.

Mine's already in the country and due for delivery on April 16, or when BMW decide on what the release date is.

Ditto LLB

Visited dealer today and they're telling me delivery end of May ..... The guy who ordered his 2 days after me is looking at September 😳
Dealer also said that they'd sold 2017 allocation and they couldn't guarantee delivery for them before 2018!!!! Obviously the dealerships are prone to a bit of BS but looks good for residuals!!!!!!

Lol, looks like three LBB Pistonheads drivers.

Had black cars before and never again, white doesn't show the lines and don't like mineral grey! Choices over ha ha

The dealers have no clue about 2017 allocations yet, they could be getting 3 each or 50 each! They have purely taken orders for the minimum they will get which is the same as this year. Production will ramp up next year I reckon.

My car left the factory last week so should be in the UK very shortly if not already.

Delivery may not be on the release date as I've asked for a number of the M2 performance parts to be added to it by the dealer when it arrives. Can't wait!

Mine is with the dealer now. Ready for the 16th.


Haven't seen it yet, but his words were, it looks much more aggressive than the M3/4.

Edited to add a crappy photo which shows the difference between Estoril and LBB in typical Brit weather.

Congrats! Long wait for mine. LBB also. Why they could have offered the 'M' mirrors is beyond me though, why can't the carbon performance mirror caps be M shaped?!
