2 things about build slots - any dealer i talked to would gladly switch a build slot that was slated for dealer inventory to sold to me w/ my X3 specs as long as the slot was available and put down my deposit.

Also, I was under the impression that build slots were model specific. i.e. a dealer has a 28i slot or a 35i slot - can be customized within that confine, but a 28i slot couldn't be ordered as a 35i. sounds like you orderd a 35i - so that line about 28i build slots sounds fake... maybe i'm wrong, but that was the impression I had from 2 different dealers around here.
he told me they put all their dealer slots as 28i because it moves the most off the floor while people buying the 35i normally custom order it, no clue to the truth behind that. but he made it sound like its an X3 slot, not engine slots.
