In the M3 it was actually the 4th MY.

I bought an 09 E92 M3 in october of 08...it didn't hurt my feelings that october of '10 i would have been able to get a comp package. Two years is a lot of time. They really just rushed this in my opinion, and all the suspension adjustments I have to believe is brought on by the negative response of journalists.

us early adapters can not complain- we have had exclusivity rights and I have loved every minute of it

Meh, BMW is not competing well in the "Competition Package" dept. vs. the likes of AMG (P31 pk.). Also, they just made every 8 month old F10 M5 owner feel a tad bit bad. I know exclusivity has its place, but for 8 months...wow.
I would be pretty ticked my car is already a dated version missing some refined performance software that BMW should of included to begin with. I mean, they should at least offer the software upgradable components as a option to current owners for a minimal labor charge or free. This is after all a $100k car.
