Would you give up a 2016 spot for a 2017 with...?

miiipilot · 03-15-2016, 09:47 AM

With the changes coming to the maintenance plan...Would you give up a '16 spot for a '17 with?

...Moonroof Option?
...more color choices?
...adaptive suspension?
...<insert another reasonable option>?

GO!

AND the loss of some of the maintenance advantages.

Yellowflash21 · 03-15-2016, 10:05 AM

Give up 2016 spot, and wait until 2020.
No...

Edited post. That was my unclear implication!

GO!

Color choices: the current BMW colors are ehhh.
Moonroof: Already drive two cars without it, don't miss it.
Suspension: Less things to put into sport every time I start the car.

Another reason not to wait would be the reduced free maintenance for 2017 models.

At my dealer, if i gave up my 2016 spot, i probably wouldn't get a car until never (current list is over 40 people).

Supermodel option. And CF roof.

JTO24 · 03-16-2016, 09:49 AM

I'd give up my theoretical spot for CF roof and LED headlights. Other than that I'd probably keep my MY16 build.

I've been considering the M2 but don't need a new car right now.. the LCI/CS rumor will be very interesting as they will/could come to fruition by the time I am back in the market.

zenmaster · 03-16-2016, 09:44 PM

I didn't mean dealer demos - of course those are MY2016!

Bluenose-2er · 03-16-2016, 09:54 PM

I use the moonroof on my other cars religiously... once every year whether I need to or not. That is to say, not a big deal, in fact I would not want one with a moonroof.

Other colours? Have to see what they are, but I am kinda liking LBB (and not just because it is the only fun colour available).

Short answer, no - but I would be interested in what consolation might be available if I get bumped outside of my control.

pruettfan · 03-16-2016, 11:19 PM

I have no interest in a moonroof, if it was an option I would never have one. I think the only thing that would make me consider a 2017 would be better colors. LBB has grown on me but I love dark blue metallics so if tanzanite, azurite etc etc were available in 2017 and I could get an early 2017 I probably would go that route. Heck as it is I will likely get one of the last 2016's that are built. In the order bank, dealer getting 12 cars and I am number 11 so I am not likely to get a car till late summer or early fall.

David1 · 03-17-2016, 02:48 PM

I bet there will be a decent price increase for a 17.

ur31337 · 03-26-2016, 11:27 AM

If there is, be sure I will be informing everyone as soon as we find out.

I agree. I bet it goes up 2-3k. Right now, the base price is actually cheaper than a 1M considering all the standard equipment. The 1M would have been optioned to roughly 55k to match what the M2 comes with standard.
