Ordered a new 550i
I ordered a 2015 550i last weekend 4/25 but have yet to receive an allocation or production date. My sales rep tells me that they have submitted a request but there is nothing they can do until they hear back from BMW.
I was also informed that there might be a small possibility that we don't get a production date for an 2015 but might have to order an 2016. Nevertheless, what do you think would be a reasonable target delivery date? July, August or even later? I live on the east coast, NYC area. How likely is it that we have to go for a 2016 model? Thank you My build: BMW 550i (rwd) mSport Space Gray Metallic Black Nappa Leather Dark Wood Trim Cold weather package Dynamic Handling Package Lighting Package Executive Package Luxury Seating Package Smartphone Integration |

Nice choice!!!! My advise go with the AWD trust me. The tuning capabilities are here. If you get RwD you will not be able to put power down. Get a AWD and eCU flash with Exhuast and your doing 0-60 in low 3s . Trust me

You should give Rallye BMW a call. I just traded in my 14 550i (rwd) with almost the same options that is mint with less than 10K on the odometer.
Ask for George Javier and tell him its Alan's old car...

They start saying this every May. It definitely is possible you'll get a 2016, but if you ordered April, I'd say your chances of a 2015 allocation are excellent. Delivery should be mid-Julyish, maybe early August.

I testdrove both, awd and rwd. 0-60 times were not as important to me as the overall driving experiance which in my opinion is better with rwd. That said, 550i awd is a nice car.
