I missed the chance to get Series 10 when they released (being an island, availability is very limited). Waited for the Monogram and couldn't purchase since they all came in Automatic. Some of us hoped the Monograms would be released in short quantities each year, but that would mean competing against the Release Series that will eventually come each year. The RS 1.0 will come out shortly, but being so particular (color, specs, etc.), I'm guessing not everybody will want one. There are still have Series 10 models available, even though the Monogram edition is out. Therefore, you could possibly see some Monograms available when you come back, although might be hard to find. |

It'll really only be hard to get one you want. From what I've seen in my shopping, all the 10 series left have too many dealer installed options to sell. That and the fact that it only comes in one color may make it harder for people to bite. All cars will follow this pattern in a way. The monogram comes in all colors and tranny.
If you try to hold out for a monogram in hopes it'll be cheaper, you're gonna lose out on a higher possibility to enjoy the exact one you want NOW, vs a monogram with some options you won't want LATER, and probably not the color you want. Let's hope they at least have your transmission by the time you're purchase. 6 speed ftw! FYI, I read through a forum once about a guy waiting 5 years to save $2000 on a Rolex...that's 5 years he could've been enjoying his watch. Just some food for thought for those who have the money but are holding out for a deal or something better. They will ALWAYS come out with newer...so if you want the best, accept the fact they it'll only be the best for about a year, maybe more if you have the RS 1.0 following the monogram. Lol jk. Gotta pay that premium. Factor in the resale value bc you will get a later year model since you're buying at the end of the year...in 10 years a 9 year old car should sell more than a 10 under similar driving conditions.
