Anyone have any insight on delivery timescales for an LCI M40i ordered now? Asking for a friend honest!

Judging by prices starting to fall on second hand cars, I’d say that delivery times have started to come down.

Nope. Not playing that game. Not even for a second.

I would be making sure you get the LCI by now.

Don’t know if you saw, got a prebuilt one that came with everything on, no deletes… so figured better the devil you know.

Russ Z4, makes sense!

It’s sounding like things haven’t really moved on from this time last year which is a bit disappointing!

Russ Z4 Yes I’d spotted your new toy, looks gorgeous I have to say - still can’t believe how you were messed about for so long, hope you are making the most of it now!

Made a mistake... it was ordered August, not September. Still, in the grand scheme of things, whats a month.

Yeah, it's not a great situation. I would be very wary about ordering anything from BMW at all. It's been (and seems like it continues to be) a complete mess. And you'll never get a straight answer on what is really going on.

Yeah, I'm liking the car - it's taken a while to zen out about it all. Terrible, terrible buying experience. Probably enough to never want to go there again.

Russ Z4, you really had an awful experience.

I don’t have much defence for BMW, but all manufacturers have been awful. Production issues just kept getting worse with chip shortage and then Putin thought he would have some fun in the Ukraine.

My understanding is that things are getting better production wise.
