I called a dealer from whom I bought a car in 2018 and asked if he wanted to compete for my iX business.

They said the pre-order is specific to the dealer I picked when placing the pre-order. That wasn't the dealer I contracted to ask about their interest.

Repeated emails to BMW resulted in rote repetition of the "contact your dealer" refrain.

Is it really possible we won't be able to shop for the best deal for our iXs? That we committed to a take it or leave or deal for a car we haven't seen whose detailed pricing is unavailable?

What's been your experience?
