Unhappy No February X5M build allocations..?

A Bay Area (Cali) dealer reports that they did not receive any allocations for February for the X5M, and that there were very few available across the U.S.. Has anyone heard similar..?

Also heard this from my dealer here in Eastern Europe. The earliest week build for X6M is week 11. But i may be wrong...

My dealer (Seattle) didn't get any allocations either. They managed to get me an allocation from another dealer, but that's week 12.

At the end of January, there were only 240 allocations nationally for Feb, of which ~160 were available for customer sale (not already sold / allocated for other purposes).

I don't remember the exact numbers, but that's far from 1 per dealership even.

I heard the same thing, which is making my situation of doing a courtesy delivery from an East Coast dealer (sale) to a West Coast dealer (delivery) somewhat interesting.

They'll be getting a car they don't have access to.

LOL. Was this 'cos they wouldn't give you the deal you wanted, or they weren't prepare to fight for inventory?

No, just very loyal. And the deal I got is probably the best you'd ever get on an X5 M.

Was at my dealership today and was told I'm now Week 13. I asked my CA about builds for February, he stated all X5M's are to be build starting Week 9. Apparently some issues with parts.

I won't share specifics, but after incentives below invoice. Better than initial order, which was $500 over.

Can you talk about the incentives you got? I know there's one for N63-engined trades, but any others active at the moment?

I've got a sales associate in my area who has allocations/production numbers ready to go if anyone is interested for the X5M and X6M, southeast region (Orlando Florida area to be exact). PM me if interested, just found out about this today when cross shopping the X5M and X6M.
