Great question - he gave me one of two allocations they had for a Dec build. I have been checking the production number online and it still shows as "processing" (I of course check every day). It does seem like there are dealers that negotiate for spots they don't have which isn't good.
One thing worth mentioning is that if you're leasing, it seems that dealers make up a portion of the discount they offer on the MSRP by marking up the money factor on the lease. They initially offered .00165 to me (BMW charges .00125). I got them down to .00145. Not great as the MF makes a big difference on an $80-90k lease. Just make sure you get that on the table early on...
