He said to put a 100% refundable $5,000 deposit on it if you want the first right of refusal on the car. It would have a $10k premium added at time of purchase.
I didn't go with it.
I figured the way the car industry introduces the first model, then exploits the car with hype, burns out the first model sales, then brings out a better model of the same car will happen here. For me, the drivers edition's draw was 100 limited production. Not enough for me to buy. I want power. I don't want to void any warranties modding the engine.

Same marketing with the Z/28, same with the Vette, same with the Camaro, same with the Shelby 350. A better one coming. You just have to get the best one for your application.
The M2 CS with over 400hp with the same basic engine block is enough.
Plus I wait the hype out.
1,000 units is enough when I want just one.
Good luck

great advice! And of course.. if you still really want a ZL9.. there are a few left.. I am fairly confident at least one here in DFW... so even when the line is short..
As Public Enemy said... Don't believe the hype!

[Bimmer] Posters treat me like Coltrane, insane
Yes to them, but to me I'm a different kind
We're brothers of the same mind, unblind
Caught in the middle and Not surrenderin'
I don't rhyme for the sake of of riddlin'
good luck with your M2 CS purchase! .
..I need hotter..
and I can wait longer..
M2 CSL.
