Anyone else pissed E92/E93 is not ending in MY2012?!

hello all,

Rumors last year were this June 2012 was the end of E92/93 production, but now it looks like the E92/93 will go beyond June and be 2013MY?!!!!

I placed my order last year and my production is next week..I was looking forward to having the last MY of the E9X, but doesn't look like I will be getting the last year now. It;s not the end of the world for me, but I wasn't in a hurry to pull the trigger on the M3 yet, and if I have known My2013 to be the last for the E92/93, I would have probably waited.

I am not sure where the misinformation came from; from BMW, from my SA, from the online forums, from news sources, or a combination of all of the above, etc.

I am not planning to back out of this deal or postpone it, but was wondering the following scenarios to keep my options open:

Questions,

1. If a production # is issued, and a deposit is already paid, but not the full amount yet, can someone back out of the deal and get their deposit back?

2. If a production # is issued, can someone change production/ delivery date?

thanks.

Nothing official was ever posted or released saying that this June would be the EOP for the E92/E93 coupe. The sticky here even says "until at least June 2012."

and if someone (BMW / MotorTrend / Speed TV / People Mag) had said that they would both continue until MY2013, and they actually stopped as MY2012, you'd be crying too...

look at the bright side of things, you have a M3.

agree..

-1st world problems ( i tend to complain about nothing sometimes lol),

-nothing is really official; whether it comes from BMW, the sticky above, forums, or a reputable magazine..

- and you're right, come April, I shall have my M3! (but i might be a little pissed if My13 has significant interior/exterior changes) lol...i need to stop..

Is this not a published BMW Production Schedule (see bellow). Does it not make sense that a time span will be required to tool up and change the assembly line?

I purchase my M3 2012 (trading my former 2011) specifically because I wanted a fully loaded one manufactured in the last production year. Not that it is a big deal, anyway I based my decision on this attached schedule here in the forum.

2011 e90 M3, last model year for me

What would be the problem anyway?

The EOP only indicates the end of production date for model year 2012 M3s, it didn't tell us that there wouldn't be a model year 2013.

Why is it such a big deal to get the last MY? I've been enjoying the e92 M3 since 2008, that is a much smarter choice than holding out if you ask me...

Thanks for the clarification Jason, I see that now and am still happy with my ///M

It's a mass-produced vehicle. The importance of this model being in its last year isn't as noteworthy as you make it. Why? Because as soon as the new-new M3/M4 drops, everyone will want that, in theory anyway. And you'll be left with the "older" model.
