Yeah, don’t think I will be buying a car from them. 5 years is crazy long. I am assuming the lack of allocations is due to the amount of cars they sell or the size of the dealership?
Smaller dealers will get fewer cars, but 5yrs is a stretch with only 6 people on the waiting list. FFS, the M2 will be out of production in 5yrs. I assume you were inquiring about an M2 and not the CS? Anyone can get an M2 at MSRP right now in weeks/months if you search and reach out to multiple dealers. If you're looking to get on a list for a CS, your best bet is to contact the larger dealerships that sell lots of M cars. You can Google for a list of the dealers with the most M sales in your region to find out which ones to contact.

It's never too early to try to get on a list, even if the car has not been officially announced yet by BMW. It's a sure thing, it's coming, don't be that guy that waits for 'official confirmation' and then misses the boat.
