Im looking to lease for 36 months 15K Miles/year and I have $2,500 in incentives (College Grad, Ultimate drive, loyalty). Do you think I have a chance getting him down maybe another $2,500-$4,000 If I put down an extra $5,000 (7,500 total with incentives)? The car is a manual and I know manuals are much harder for dealers to sell in LA.

Also: The Dealer price at $70,775 is the lowest price for an e92 in a 500 Mile radius from where I live.

I'm kind of worried because I tried financing a CPO e92 M3 2 days ago at Pacific BMW but the guy would not even budge $900 off the sticker price although the car has been on his lot for about 70+ days.
You want to put 7500 down on a lease?
..... Don't do that

Also, why would the dealer budge on the price just because you're putting more down? Incentives (college grad, loyalty, UD) come from BMW, not from the dealer.
Meaning if they sold the car to you at 70k and you had those 2500 incentives, don't think the dealer only go 67.5k. The dealer got their 70k.

Whether you're financing or leasing, the selling price is what determines the price (be it your month lease payment or monthly finance payment)

Manuals aren't that hard to sell when it comes to M3s. If they had a regular 3 series... yeah it would be more difficult.
