Ordering F90 M5

Is ordering already open in the US?

My dealer called me a few months back that they had 1 allocation but I was wondering when ordering will open on a wider basis.

I’ve got about 10 months left on my current M5 lease and was trying to figure out the timing.

Any help is appreciated.

You should be able to be added to "the list" at US dealers now. The list will put you in line for an allocation. Based upon sales at that dealership dictates how many allocations they will receive. My dealer currently has over 30 people on their list, so I was told. Before they place the order you will have to put some money down, 5k or 1k depending on the dealer.. this is normally negotiable though.

My lease on my M4 is up May 2018 so I am in a similar situation as you. My dealer said I could extend my lease until the M5 arrived... not sure how that would work but you could ask about extending your current lease...

I was actually first on the list at my dealer and had the allocation in hand (I was put on the list a year ago), I passed because I'm not sold on the M5. Will I regret that? Maybe. But now I'm leaning towards an used 2017 R8, or a 991.2 Turbo, or 991 GT3. I'm still wishy washy and could return to the M5..but I lost my allocation spot.

Thanks for the information; I too gave up my allocation as I was and still am on the fence about what I’ll do next.
