: Hearing that the new M3 will be allocated to dealers on the basis of dealer size (unit sales):

: Question #1 - How many new M3s will the smallest of dealers receive for their "initial" shipment?

: Question #2 - How many new M3s will the largest of dealers receive for their "initial" shipment?

:
: Hearing that demand for the new M3 is very strong:

: Question #3 - How many new M3s will "any" dealer be able to get in the first six months?

The smallest dealer ships (I mean the ones that did not even get the X5 yet) Will get NONE in the first three to six months. The biggest dealerships will get about one a month for the first three months and about two a month after that for the first year. So a nice size dealership should recieve about 15 in the first year. A small dealership may get about 6 in the first year. On average I guess the average dealership shopuld get about 8-10 M3's in the first model year. Do not hold me to this but expect for the first year for the M3 to be as available as the M5.
