Does that mean the increase only kicks in for X1 production starting 3/23? Thanks! |

Most likely they gave you the old price and then applied to BMW for price-protection since the car was on order prior to the announcement of the increase. That's how it is supposed to work. But go ahead and praise your dealer anyway. It happens so seldom on here!

Dealer doesn't have that option / choice. Price protection is usually only for pre-orders. With the last price increase, the factory offered people who already had an allocation a small discount on the new MSRP price. Haven't seen an announcement for that this time. If your car is built after Jan 1st, you pay the new MSRP.

What if you have a production number but are stuck in this stage: "Production begins" Today's the day: your BMW has entered the production queue. What if this stage finishes after January 1?

Another data point for all of you: I received my allocation for a 230i last week and the production date was set for the week of 12/26/22. MSRP with 2022 prices was confirmed. The dealer inputted my build details, but had to verify one option (1VY staggered wheels) because BMW still listed the option as available but it wasn't showing up in the dealer's system. This took a day or two, and now the production date shifted into mid-January... +$800 MSRP. My CA took it up with the sales manager but they said there was nothing they could do.
I'm grateful that I could even order a car, as the dealer was able to swap allocations and get me the model I wanted, but I'm still annoyed that a $600 wheel option is now effectively costing me $1400. Especially since the G42's Dynamic Handling Package--which would have included said wheels, as well as the bigger brakes and LSD--cost only $500 more than that, but was discontinued a few months ago. (Another oddity: adding those 1VY wheels was the only way I could get the M Sport package, since you can't select it directly anymore. These are strange times.) I'm trying to tell myself that the price increase is worth it to avoid having a car that was built between two holidays, when the production workers may not be on their A game, but that's just empty consolation... |

There's other weirdness, too. With the latest round of changes, I couldn't combine the M Sport package on a 230i RWD with a Canberra Beige interior (either in SensaTec or leather). Cognac was the only non-black option. But you can get Canberra Beige in the xDrive 230i w/ M Sport or either of the M240i trims. This one sounds like an oversight, not a deliberate intent to keep options specific to certain models. I went with Cognac. |

Congrats! I received my production number also yesterday. Have you been able to log onto my bmw for tracking? I continue to get a message that an error occurred and my bmw garage is unavailable and to try again later?

Those that stick with a brand, those consumers are "downgrading". X7 buyers are now looking at X5's, X5 buyers are now looking at X3's, etc. |
