New benchmark low price for M3 / M4's

purecrema · 08-03-2017, 05:40 AM

Recent rumour confirmed…BMW Corporate wanting to expedite clearance of 2016 built cars. Many would be 2017 compliance. Corporate offering ‘significant’ bonuses to move these machines including new M3 and M4 cars. My brother was looking to move into a M3 and the price offered by Mo @ BMW Melbourne this week was nothing less than crazy.

Amazing value at a new benchmark low price….

Yup I got this info also.

Think 12x,000 for a new M3 built in 16, and complianced in 16 or 17.

LCI2 Comp Packs are still $135k+.

Thank fucking Christ for Full Circle.

Yep...on the money

Besides the headlights and seat emblems, there is no difference between an LCI1 and LCI2.

You can easily code iDrive 6 onto an LCI1, and if you have 2-3k, switch to the new headlights also.

Actually, when the old seat emblems crack and you need new ones under warranty, just order black

ala LCI2 for 12x,000!

Awesome pricing. So M4 would be 10k up on the M3 I assume?

Also anyone know of anyone doing the LCI 2 headlight swaps yet?!

elisiX · 08-04-2017, 06:24 AM

Not sure about the old stock M4’s, but they may still be 14x,000.

Hey mate,

Do you know who can code iDrive6 in Melbourne ? I also want to code the updated software for the dampers into my 15' M3 as i am about to lower my car with aftermarket coilovers. Apparently the updated software or coding means that when lowering a car it rides heaps nicer as the car now recognises that the car has been lowered.

elisiX · 08-04-2017, 07:19 AM

I’ve read what you are referring to.

Not sure who in Melbourne can help though.

PrinceYZM · 08-04-2017, 08:16 AM

Great day today! I just ordered my black sapphire 2017 M3 CP from South Yarra BMW, great dealership with great services! I got my brand new m3 for 125k with metallic paint, it was the pre-LCI, 2016 build, Thank you Jason for this amazing deal! High recommended!!!

BMW is doing some crazy deals at this very moment!!

If anyone wanted the contact details of Jason, please PM!

elisiX · 08-04-2017, 09:40 AM

There you go. Proof of these deals.

Glad you are happy.

Interested in this as well in Melb.

Hope fully someone chimes into this thread.

SouthernBM were coding when I asked ages ago, cubic dollars though

Simple stuff is done easy with Bimmercode app and the iCar OBD dongle.

tsubi · 08-11-2017, 06:04 AM

Hi guys, is anyone able to refer me to a dealer in Sydney?

Called one today who had 3 x 2016 builds in stock but had zero luck getting anywhere near $125k.

Clearly I suck at negotiating.

cheers!

elisiX · 08-11-2017, 06:44 AM

Give Will @ Sylvania a call.

Best guy in the business.

Don't limit your self to one city, I buy out of wherever, Melb to Syd is a nice drive up the coast and a great way to run in a new M.

Try Mohammed at BMW Southbank, a number of us here have done some good numbers in the past with him.

MOSTRO · 08-11-2017, 07:20 PM

My 30 Jahre was purchased new at that price point ($130k)

Very happy to get a limited edition at the price I did.

I could get a 2017 built and complianced M3 DCT with comp pack at slightly lower price but decided to go with a 2016 built limited edition.

Last new 30 Jahre in country I am lead to believe.

Will see if I can get to that number!

Col Crawford were very good on price. Better than Sylvania at the time.

Car brokers are very good at getting a low price.

MWAAAHAHAHAHA really?!

No. The dealer still has to make money. To get down to the prices quoted here, some of us have achieved - some have not, there is no room for a middle man. So..... if you are someone who thinks the price on the sticker is "IT", look away. I run a small business - like most here I suspect - and you get to a point where you accept everyone has to make a dollar to keep going. I could've got maybe $1k more off my car, but what does that cost you over your term. Not much. TLDR: read up, talk to people, read the posts, a little white lie here 'n there (you can't spew wholesale BS to salespeople, they are PRO at it), and then at the end once you've signed - be happy with your choice. No room for buyers remorse, don't look back -get in and drive. Do you think the bloke who buys a 760 or S63 looks back at the depreciation? No, they are too busy smiling

drgmt · 08-12-2017, 06:30 AM

My last two cars (AMG and M) were purchased from car brokers. I'm no mug. And believe me I'm not stupid.

The cars were many thousands cheaper than the cheapest dealer price I could find. And I worked hard with dealers. They could not get close.

So apparently there is room for a middle man after all.
