Thanks for the timely pricing comments!! The $500 over invoice does not include any of the incentives as they will have already expired by the time I take delivery in January. Hopefully BMW will extend them. Any history to support same.
The current Holiday credit can be locked for (I believe) up to 60 days, certainly 30. You will need to submit a credit application to BMW Financial. I would recommend going through your dealer vs. the BMW website. If paying cash or financing through another institution, the Holiday credit wouldn't apply. However, loyalty and/or BMW Apps could be options. Search the "Ask a Dealer" forum for further info.
I just negotiated a deal for $3,250 below invoice inclusive of all incentives. $1,000 for corporate fleet discount and $2,250 of BMWFS incentives. Black/black, DCT, competition, premium, etc. MSRP around $76k, sell price around $67k. Giving me $40k for my silver/black '08 E93 6MT with 20k miles.
Have not pulled trigger yet but probably will. Seems to me like a pretty good deal.
I've read about fifty of these M3 posts today and I've learned a lot. Primarily that production of the V8 ended this month and dealer allocation is probably low. What would your strategy be to buy a 2013 now at a reasonable price? Also I have yet to figure out how you guys know what dealer invoice price is? I've seen reference to 91% or 93% of MSRP but I know I used to actually see invoices out here years ago didn't I? Where is this information available now? Sorry I singled you out but you seem knowledgeable and responsive on the topics you've commented on. Thanks for your help. Jane.
If you are looking for the coupe (i.e. e92), I don't think there is any open production allocations left (status 112 or lower), so ordering your M3 from the factory is probably out of question at the moment. The convertible's (i.e. e93) production will continue until September, so you may be able to find an allocation if you look hard enough.
But, there should still be a decent number of new M3s on BMW Center lots, but you may have to be flexible with the color and option configurations.
Thank you. Read a couple more hours throughout the site after I posted this and even looked at a few sponsors inventory on line (Greg Poland from Pacific BMW is very active on here). I'm not picky about color or options. I figure most of whatever dealer stock is left is the same white, black or silver and at least one optional package at a minimum. I have enjoyed all the reading. Lots of enthusiasts here for sure. Thanks for the help. Jane.
ok............. here's some info for you all............. There are 53 M3 coupes in the whole US available for sale...ie not in sold status. If you add sold status you get 311 in whole country.
Wow, so this means there is not a surplus of new E92 ///M inventory out there. If anything the remaining unsold units averages to what <1 unit per state?
Did the OP buy the M3?
He went silent after 2 posts...
