MY2017 M3/M4 ends 2/2017. MY2018 M4 starts 3/2017, MY2018 M3 starts 7/2017
From a dealership bulletin:

I placed order for my gf's M4 convertible this September through Steve Thomas BMW.
They did not receive single allocation for convertible last few month. I wonder if this is related. |

Well this is interesting. Just got an allocation/production no. for an F80 with full leather this week. Estimated build date is week 3.
Is your source an internal document? From your info, it looks like you're a CA at Tulley.

4 month production break would mean you can't place an order for a build past/production stop in March 2017. The January deadline applies to Individual orders.

I heard the same thing from our CA a few months back. It was re: F80 build. Stating MY2017 production is done March and MY2018 production starts July.

If the OP isn't just pulling our legs, this is about as straight from the horse's mouth as you're going to get. (Sorry for the double idiom in a single sentence...ha)

That sucks. I may have to try to just order one in January, that way when my lease ends, my new car should be showing up. In reading it, it looks like full leather interior is out of the question, but I'm willing to forego that if it means not waiting until the summer. |

I wonder if this could be due to the long rumored paint booth upgrade at Regensburg if only the F80 M is impacted by the production stop.
