Good point, never thought of that. It's really too bad Jan rates are unchanged with zero incentives

Yeah same here... To this end I was hoping my production spot would be later in February which could theoretically push my delivery date to April. Historically, march appears dreadful for incentives but April seems to have a few $s. Now I guess it's just a game of chance to see in what month my week 5 car hits the dealer.

Hahahhha. I've always had black cars and like the contrast. If white wasn't an option it get the Sahkir Orange. Saw it on the highway the other day and looks amazing!

keep in mind that if your allocation was "week 4" then that's the week it should FINISH production. If it takes 1-2 weeks to produce, then it sounds like we're all right on schedule.

It really that that long to produce? My wife's X5 was completed production in 5 business days.

It depends. Mine has been in production since 12/21. So who knows how long it's really supposed to take. I know other people entered production 2 days ago with scheduled production completion on the 21st. So that would be 10 days (not counting weekend).

Mine is a simple build too - freaking alpine white. Ugh

[drexplode]

Anyone slated for cw4 with an individual color and start early?

[mln]

week 4
ordered December 12

YMB F80
black extended
6MT
ZCP
executive package
Z22 spoiler

[F30George]

So close on goin Alpine white. My wife has a AW X5 so needed to break it up a bit.

[swill]

Week 5

SO Vert
ZCP
black full leather
executive package
DCT

Original order place Dec. 9 with individual leather, but never picked up because I missed out on individual allocations. Finally got an allocation 2 days ago for a week 5 build but had to go with black leather. It did go through for full leather, so apparently that is still available, but hasn't started production yet, so we'll see...

Meh, the less attention the better.

One thing I'll miss is the long saturdays detailing while drininking beer in the garage. I'd imagine polishing and waxing Alpine White won't make it pop at all, lol

I dunno I did a boring color on my 15 and regretted it. Ended up costing me some cash to move into the 16 but been worth it. I love me some SO.

I liked that and YMB but the wife hated both, lol

Definitely hit or miss. 3 bold colors this go around and I only like SO. YMB and AY just don't do it for me. All in all I'm just picking and you'll love your unpainted car

The wife said I should have gotten Mineral Grey. While it is a great color, I couldn't see buying an M and not getting one of the M colors. SO is way too good
