Case in point, when I got my production number from the deailer (day of my "order"), it showed up in bmwusa as a black car. It since changed to Estoril, which is what I ordered. Also, I was able to make a change even when it was in "production scheduled but not confirmed" state.

From what I gather it's a little different if they don't already have an allocation.

I'm admittedly no expert, but this is what I've gathered through my process. YMMV
Hm...the salesman told me they have an allocation for this model...I will check with them again.
Thanks!
