Most likely:

• Dealer did a poor job of PDI (pre delivery inspection) and never took the car off transport mode when they sold it

• Your battery died or was disconnected for some reason.

Also, some cars have a valet mode so the valet does not enjoy your car too much. It restricts RPM. When such a feature exists, it is engaged by a sequence of keys -a short cut. I am unaware of this feature in F15 or other BMWs. If it exists, you may have inadvertently triggered it.
