When would the 2016 M3/M4 changes and options be released?

[yaymitch]

My SA told me July for MY 2016 orders to begin.

Nice to see this thread brought back from the dead, haha. Definitely hoping soon, trying ti plan my ED trip!

A major miss, IMHO, is the lack of ventilated seats as even an option. Its a luxury, for sure, but once you have them you don't want to live without them - especially in a convertible.

It's one thing missing from my Z4 and the sticky back you get from top down driving can be mitigated by ventilated seats. I'm hoping they come to their senses in time for MY16.

The SA I talked with said he expects to see prices and the ordering guide around the middle of May.

I called and spoke with a M dedicated specialist that said his line to BMW corp is telling him that first week of june ordering is whats realistic. All of this he said she said is really annoying, everybody has a different answer.

My CA, who is also an M specialist said the same thing; to expect pricing to be unblocked the first week of June. He's hoping sooner but that's what he realistically expects.

Allocations are released June 4th, pricing was supposed to be unblocked on Friday, but was delayed. Hoping for this week, i was told, by a VIP order specialist at BMWNA, she's not at a dealership.

Well I'd rather take your news than mine lol plus you sound like you have more details from a more reputable source.

What do you think is smarter, going to a dealer and negotiating based off invoice pricing now, or waiting till prices are out?

If you're ordering a 16, as it seems, no dealer will negotiate with you based on 15 invoice and MSRP.

But, there's no reason you can't negotiate on invoice and MSRP which is still TBD. I did exactly that and put a deposit down over a month ago. Whatever prices are released, I know my US price and a Euro ED price based on agreed upon discounts.

I highly recommend negotiating now based on invoice. The great thing is, it doesn't matter what the invoice turns out to be. Just agree to invoice +/- a certain dollar amount.

If you're leasing, you can also agree to the buy rate MF (again, doesn't matter what the actual number ends of being), acquisition fee, etc.
