Limit on number of EDs
Can anyone please say definitively whether there is some type of limit on the number of EDs you can do during a particular period of time? I'm considering placing and picking up ED orders on an X3 and 3-series at about the same time or a few months apart.
Has anyone else ever done this, or tried to do it?
I have heard/seen the following:
1. There is no limit (heard from BMW USA ED helpline rep).
2. There is a limit of one ED per household per 6 months (seen on this board).
3. "Only one car per year can be purchased through the European Delivery Program" (e-mail from someone at harte-hanks, whoever they are, probably in connection with my phone call to the ED helpline). Not sure if this is per person, per household, per address...
Assuming you find a dealer willing to do an ED, then I would think they'd be happy to do as many as possible. Does BMW USA somehow monitor and control this?
Thanks.

Thanks. | There shouldn't be any limit. Of course, all the cars have to be in your name, so there's no real grey-market opportunity. Indeed, I think some people here have posted about picking up 2 cars at the same time. Double your savings, double your fun!
The only limit of which I'm aware is on the once-per-year rebate through BMW CCA

There is a limit and it is exactly this: ".... ONE per family household, per six month.."
also, BMW authorized dealer (and its agents) are allowed ONE per year for their own use.
That's the rule and your truly knows is by hard.  This rule is setforth to serve a purpose.

Of course, BMW may have the rule, but not enforce it except in suspicious cases. And, bee, if you haven't been caught . . .
