Thanks. I am a bit skeptical. I think the M240I is in demand, especially in 6sp manual. The reason I had to order the car was because there were none available within a 100 miles radius.(manual 6sp)

I also negotiated a 14% discount from the MSRP on this M240I.(mostly because I took a hit in my trade in) My concern is the dealer may sell the car under me if they get a better offer. Please tell me I am paranoid.
