I have placed an order. Originally my dealer promised me an April slot and May delivery. Then they got notice of carbon black being delayed until May which could have meant June delivery.

The sales manager called BMW without my prompting and secured the first May run of carbon black for delivery at the end of May. I don't have a price but they've committed to a rate of discount.

I actually first specially ordered an X6 then chickened out after they placed the order and after considering the 5GT settled on the new X5. Their response all along the way was "no problem, whatever you want".

Outstanding for a Canadian dealer. We don't get production numbers here.
