Oh man, love everything on that car, even the price tag.

thanks for the info! i saw it on autotrader and called the dealer but they said someone already put a deposit down on it. it doesn't have a carbon fiber roof.

the dealer said the ones with a moonroof go for $700-800 more vs the carbon. i was surprised by that because I like the looks of the carbon roof.

in real world, sunroof goes for lower. I think that's just one of dealer's BS selling tactic.

Invoice on a fully loaded $70k M3 is around $65k. I might wait until the 2010s come out. BMWNA should discount the new 09 M3s $7k or so off like last year for the 08s.

I still have to pay Indiana state sales tax when I register it and that's a full 7% I already get raped enough on taxes. Some states only charge a quarter of a percent sales tax on cars.

If I spend ~$55k on a slightly used M3 + 7% tax = ~$59k + another couple grand for other IN registration/title fees ~$61-62k

So new 09 M3 reduced to $55-58k + (no sales tax for the first $50k since it's a new car) = ~$58 to $60k.

Any thoughts are much appreciated!

Thanks

I'm not sure if that Craigslist link is the same link to this car but...

And be thankful that you won't be paying Seattle tax on your car. I have to pay 9.8% when I order my 2010...

thanks! yeah it's the same m3. that dealer is a lamer. i've called them twice now asking what's up with the car. first they tell me it has a deposit but still on the lot and the guy will come pick it up. then they tell me they're not sure but its' still on the lot. they were supposed to call me back with a status update... no CF roof though

ouch to 9.8% !! but the 7% Indiana tax plus additional title and registration fees will exceed 10% of the purchase price regardless if it's new or used which is crap.

at least you'll get 9.8% back on the first $49.5k if your AGI is below $125k. just maximize the pretax deductions
