placed new F80 M3 with competition package last week
Hi guys, new to the forum, i just placed an new M3 with competition package last week. Silverstone exterior, and sakhir orange interior and also carbon fibre spoiler. Basically what the dealer told me is the car will be built on March and hopefully will arrive at the dealership by May. Not sure did anyone else did the same like me?

Hi Calvinadelaide,
Welcome to the forum. Not sure what your question is. Great to see another Mx owner in Adelaide. I have seen a M3 in silverstone driving around and it looked great. |

How the hell are we supposed to know. I had the option added, and was told they would "start" building in March. It wasn't a guarantee that they would build mine. I have a week 8 build so the comp pack would have pushed me back into limbo, I declined it and kept my week 8 production. If you have an allocation with a production number, they should be able to tell you when it will be produced. Now if you say you just put an "order in", well that doesn't really mean anything, you need a production number, unless things are different in AU.

Not necessarily true, AMG only bring "S" models into the country. And if you look at his invoice you'll see "Included" hence requesting clarification.

Yes, but the cost is higher. You don't get the AMG S model for the standard non S price. Australia was screwed into buying the higher end model from the start, only the C63s is available, at it's standard S pricing. If the comp pack is included in the price, believe that the standard price for this included option will be higher.

http://www.carsguide.com.au/car-news...es-price-31061 BMW M3 - $156,430 http://www.drive.com.au/motor-news/b...29-gimogq.html If the competition package is priced at 10-15k on top like it was for the E92 M3 and is for the M5, it will make it priced higher than the competition. The idea with the BMW price cuts recently was to undercut mercedes and steal there sales. |

I've been pestering my dealer about the cost of the competition package since it came out. His quote was between $10k and 12k, i'm hoping that it'll be sub $10k. Hope OP can clarify the cost of his soon.

For the US market, the CP costs $5500, and if you converted to AUS dollar it's about $8K. And the day i went to the dealer to order my car, the sales guy didn't even know the exact price of the CP. He told me they just had a meeting about the BMW AUS release the CP, and he did phone call his manager and i am pretty sure the CP is about $8K. Hopefully it helps.

[QUOTE=Chandy168;19269423]Thanks for the clarification. Would you know if we have to pay LCT and Stamp Duty on the $8k? I was looking at the CCB upgrade, but after you add LCT and Stamp Duty, a $15k option becomes $20k [/QUOTE
Hi mate, i just had a quick look of my order. Unfortunately you will have to pay LCT and Stamp Duty for the CP, but you can always double check with the sales guy. |

I also just purchased a BMW M3 LCI in Mineral grey with Competition package and they have said it will be deliverd end of July. In regards to the price I was quoted $5,000 for the comp pack which was added to the total and stamped duty was calculated using the total. For 5k it is an awesome deal we are getting the exact same thing for the same price in the US. Can't wait just hope the rims will look nice worst comes to worst I will get the powder coated. What are your opinions of the rims?? |
