I struck a deal with my dealership about 3 weeks ago for an M235i build. They told me it would take about 60 days to receive the vehicle. No biggie, this seems normal and it's what I've experienced in the past. They told me they did not have an allocation available, but they would get one soon.

Fast forward to now, 3 weeks later, and I still have no idea when the car will be built. They have "ordered" the build, but BMW has not yet confirmed and/or provided a build date, etc.

So...

Does the dealership only get so many custom build allocations for each car per month? Per model year? For all models in total per month? Is it possible they won't have any build allocations for the near future, and they were simply hoping that our "deal" could help expedite a build slot from BMW?

I'm trying to determine the worst case scenario (longest wait time) so that I can manage my current vehicle situation until then.

I'd appreciate any insight on how the allocation process works.

Thanks!
