Push hard on the dealer to clear this up !
This must be it - thanks. They've indicated now that they are looking for more slots from BMW and have even tried to buy some from other dealers.

Hard to push too hard on the dealer when I have a $500 over invoice deal (not worth shopping around) and they're willing to give me a loaner to bridge the gap.
