It's funny because I just read an article the other day that BMW was encouraging people to custom order cars, as it is one of the competitive advantages they have in the X and Zs being built here.
Sorry it went wrong. If they placed a clean-sheet order above allocation and it was a sold-order from the inception, BMW should not have changed the order. My guess is the dealer took a similar unit they already had in the system and changed it to meet your specs. If it is just for stock/inventory, BMW and other manufacturers will sometimes unilaterally change things to streamline production. Either way they notify the dealer. Someone at the dealer didn't catch it and dropped the ball.
