I finalized a deal on a 435 GC last week in June, and was told I would get a production number the following week.

I've been told they still don't have allocation to place the order as of yesterday. Having never ordered a BMW (or any car) before, I'm not sure how long to give the dealer to get the order.

Anyone else having similar issues?

Did you try David Aviles in the link below in my signature? Might just be that dealer your working with doesn't have a allocation. If you are in a rush might be best to call around and see if you can find a dealer who has a allocation. David just placed a order this morning and also a ED order yesterday for 435GC

When I ordered my 435i M Sport, my dealer didn't have any allocations for a RWD 435 (guess everyone in Colorado think they must have AWD). They called around to find another dealer to trade with, but were able to get BMWNA to give them an allocation. Push your dealer to find an allocation or, if they won't, find another dealer.

Problem is they said I'd need to put down a deposit of $1k for them to place the order. However if they don't get the order done soon, I might push for a refund. Haven't decided yet.

FWIW no one actually gets charged the deposit. I don't even think there was a form to fill out. You and your credit provider have a lot of leverage here.
