Yeah. The local dealership I originally wanted to purchase from asked for an up front $50k deposit to be first on the list when the US model was unveiled in Aug '13 (I passed and went with a dealer that only asked for $1k down and sold their first to me for MSRP). Driving by yesterday they had so many that they were parked on the lot next to their last gen 7-Series. It makes me feel a little better that it wasn't just me that bought into the "limited-production halo car" hype that BMW was shoveling to dealers before the car launched and they decided to just start making as many as they could instead.
