Walked down to the factory yesterday (I live close), talked to the folks in the showroom about 2 things:
Question 1: "I heard some people in the forums were able to transfer their M3P order over to a M3LR. Is this possible?"
Answer 1: "No, we put a stop to that."
Question 2: "Are there any M3Ps available for test drive? I didn't see any out on the lot."
Answer 2: "No."
For context, I asked about test driving a M3P about 3 weeks ago and they said one was available if I get on their standard waiting list. Now, it seems this is not possible.
Interestingly, I did not see any M3P in the delivery lot either. Lots of SR+ and MY variants. But no performance. I did, however, see several M3Ps sitting "in the back" - peeking through the fence (yes, I did) into final assembly/testing/QA 'tent' area.
Not sure what these observations are worth, but I figured it'd be fun to start a speculation bonanza. Begin!
