Not surprising. I don't remember the last time BMW offered a full option list on first year models. Options are added on a yearly basis and sometimes a more significant update for LCI (new leather options like on the F3X). Perhaps people complaining should hold out instead of wanting the moon for first year production. BMW isn't going to load up the option list, anticipating for issues. As production ramps up, I'm sure BMW will surely and slowly add options.

Generally you should be able to get to invoice very soon on an M340 unless dealing with the most boneheaded dealer, they are not limited allocation, makes no sense for the dealer to hold one once they start appearing on lots... selling it gets them another. Maybe prior to landing it will be harder to get them to sell their first or second which would otherwise be demos to show the new car off |

Why pay $70k on a new 3 series?
There are sooooo many cars you could drive that are much nicer and cooler... I'd get a used Aston Martin and pocket 20k for repairs! |

Its great that the M340i is next up for ordering. But lack of a Silver color, that beautiful red and black interior, and no mention of the M performance items is a bummer. Are those sweet 20" M performance wheels available also? I haven't heard anything about those yet...

It's interesting to see people who currently have $800/month M3 leases balk at paying even more for a regular 3-series. Well, it's what the math comes out to when BMW doesn't artificially subsidize the leases. |

Isn't this exactly the same with 330i MSport?
All other MXXX releases had different options than the standard car. This one looks like a 340i with MSport, and that's it.

The options lists usually are the same, it's the standard m performance goodies that separate them. |

200 more for a cheaper 3 series is absurd in my opinion any way you cut it. If someone is willing to pay that then that's their prerogative, but most M owners on this forum will find it hard to swallow.

Why on earth does an M340i require an allocation? Unless every model on the lot technically has allocations. When I think "allocations" I think of cars that have (very) limited availability bc they are a fringe car. Weird.

So yes, every car technically has a factory allocation. |

I thought Citrin Black Metallic was going to be one of the individual colors. I thought I read that in an earlier post. Does anyone know? I wonder if they will add it further down the line.
