Accurate availability update?

My CA just texted me "Official word on X3M.....September/October availability". Can anyone confirm accuracy?

We should see an official release at either the Geneva Motor Show on March 5th or (dare I say) at the New York International Auto Show on April 19th.

It'll be interesting to see how the Auto Show dynamic changes over time. I just read in the paper a few days ago that a number of Mnfrs are re-thinking the importance and influence of the traditional show as a way of introducing their new lines. Makes sense in a way - as finances tighten and profit lines diminish, where can marketing have the most sway? And to be honest, it is quite frustrating to watch many of the online videos of someone simply walking around a vehicle filming as they go. And how many interested Buyers actually get the chance of attending?

But what I have re-watched many a time are the short, professionally-produced HD videos by the SVR and Levante Trofeo teams. Brief, well-executed, perfected music lines, and dramatic. Would seem a better use of marketing dollars in these new times...

I'm dying to see the X3M and X4M revealed. Good chance one replaces my M40i.

yes mine is a new one, and he keeps everything confidential, i was just able to let him tell me the outside and inside colors i would be interested. It is not like my previous dealer (which is a friend now) who gave me in the past the PDF for internal use only with the presentation of the X4 M40i (F26) before the car was officialy announced.
