It was very obvious from the beginning he wanted to string this out. For what reason? Not the mark of a very good forum member.

I would be happy with the numbers that have been generated here, but I am wondering if the car is over priced for a number of members, even at $55,000?? Why is everyone so concerned about the cost of the car when it comes down to a couple of thousand of dollars??? If you can't afford to pay $2,000 - $5,000 more than what is estimated here, then maybe you should be looking at a different car??
Honestly, if you are planning on leasing and putting down the minimum needed, then your payment will be over $1,000/month. Maybe your monthly car payment could be used more wisely??? i.e., paying student loan payments, buying a house, paying off your outstanding credit, etc....

I see your point. A 2K difference shouldnt be that big of deal to most people. However, when do you draw the line. If you say only 2K more should be manageable then why not 3k or 5k? I think people are just setting limits for themselves. I know where my psychological barrier is where it makes more sense for me to just get a 335i than an M3. I think that is all you are seeing here. I agree, the 10% discount sounds more accurate and in line with what my Military Sales rep has been telling me all along. 12% would be awesome but I am not getting my hopes up. Jason

You know... the painted sticker / sign on the sun visors, the you can't open and close the top from the remote.
Back on topic, I will email my military sales guy in Germany to get an update tomorrow. He is kind of slow with the info, unless I specifically ask him. I agree about the minimal price difference not being a huge factor but $2000 is... like $2000. |

I would be interested where I said I wanted to string anyone along...not my style, something must have been taken out of context. I simply didn't want to post all the material due to my relationship with the company sales rep, but hey , she didn't say not to post it. It was naive of me to think I could throw "a little" of what I had out there, I will admit that much. Anyway, I should have just posted this to begin with and taken the company logo out as I have here in these edited jpgs, my badd. I did receive confirmation today that these package groupings and stand alone options are accurate for the US market. Sincerely, Davo aka "Bad Forum Member"

Davo thanks for the info. Even if it is still estimated at least its something to look at and generate some hypothetical numbers. Anything at this point will keep me from punching myself in the face! This wait is killing me. I have the immunity idol and will give it to you so you can stay on the island. The Tribe has spoken!

Mmm, looking at the price sheet, and Euro members chime in please:
Is extended leather $2150 on top of the $1450 for leather? Or if you get premium package is it different, ie, an additional $700? |

Davo. You are funny. I'll vote to keep you on the island as well. Thanks again for posting in the circumstances you are in. Hopefully day dreams about the car are helping you keep your head on properly. Likely almost an insignificant detail (it's just a car) but the small things can help.

Fellas,
Hopefully my Mil Sales rep will be back in the office tomorrow and will be able to verify the new estimate. A second opinion would be nice here and I hope to prove Davo right... Jason

What this "Enhanced Premiun Sound" exactly is is then a mystery for me; one thing for sure, either the price is wrong or only for the M3 this is the price of the Logic 7 option/some new low cost DSP solution. There's no way that you can jump from base HiFi to Top HiFi Individual for just $700. Unless it is a gift... very un-BMW-like. |

Power REAR windows? Did I miss that part?
Aux input for portable media players is standard? What is the difference between that and the iPod/USB option?

You plug the DAP into the car through a 1/4" jack instead of USB (6FL) which means no menu control through iDrive.

The 3-series is a smaller car than the 5 or 6. So maybe its a bit cheaper
