F8X M3/M4 Competition Package?

[GOLFFRR]

I had not heard anything from David regarding any bulletin on a comp pkg. I think he would have told me the moment he read it. I did just shoot him a buzz though asking him to let me know. Its a little early (4am) right now but he will shoot me abuzz back this morning and ill report back with the official report.

Side note I had heard rumors that the comp pkg was being released in 2016 for the 2017 models, but as of now there is nothing official from BMW that I have seen or heard about form David or any of our staff. If anyone would or will know it will be David Aviles. Ill post back later this morning when I hear back!

Since I pick up my M3 one week from today in Munich, I full expect the Comp Pack announcement to happen that same day. You're all welcome!

[GOLFFRR]

Talked to David, no such bulletin has hit the dealers yet regarding comp pkg. sorry everyone

When will ZCP be available on 2016 models?

[BMWFanatic2008]

No official info on this yet. They might start offering it from MY2017.

It may never be. It might be 2017s or 2018s for all we know (likely not past 17) No true ZCP date has been announced.

start of production march 2016.

This will make it tough for me not to wait a couple more months versus ordering right now.

I just want to know if it's true so I can grab a March allocation now

Maybe a january announcement and a march sop?

[ChrisK]

Scott said early 2016. March would fit his statement.

It's definitely true about March SOP. When they'll announce it, what ZCP will consist of, and whether it'll be MY16 or MY17 for the USA, I do not know.

At this point, I'd just enjoy your beautiful MGM and wait for MY17, only a couple of months longer than March

Has bmw done this in the past where they have introduced new options within the same Model Year? I can understand ZCP as a MY17 option but crazy for it to be a MY16 option.

A very recent example would be the M Performance exhaust. It became an option here in canada for $4900 this April.

March 2016 is definitely still MY2016 production according to the manufacturing schedule:

(An astute reader might point out that the F48 X1 information in this document turned out to be a bag of lies, but that's a rare exception to what is usually a very accurate list of dates/models)

At any rate, we love getting inside information here on Bimmerpost, so certainly any contributions along those lines are appreciated. That being said, as with anything else on the internet from unverified sources, I'm sure you can understand the skepticism one tends to receive when posting such claims.

From where I sit, I would advise skeptics not to bet against March 2016. Signs have been pointing that way for a few months now. I fully expect details should be forthcoming shortly.

Don't forget c63 s coupe will be out in summer '16, CP may coincide with Mercedes' release.

Oh yeah. MY2011 M3s had at least 3 separate instances of feature implementations within the model year. Which is where we made up the MY2011, 2011.5 and 2011.75 designations

I remember those designations, they were just too funny

Side query.

Let's say there is an announcement for ZCP in March 2016 (or any other time "early" in the year). Would BMW typically also make minor changes to the other packages/options for the existing MY2016 model? Or just add ZCP to list and that's it?

Thanks!
