IMO best way to get discount is to buy later after the hype dies down.
Correct me if I am wrong on point 1, dealer preference for buy or lease
-dealers don't care either way because the car is being bought and they are getting paid either way (maybe a little cherry on top if they can mark up interest rate or money factor)
- at times bmw FS wants to balance their portfolio one way or another but will do so in customer facing discounts vs back end incentives for dealers to push a customer one way or the other (this practice is illegal, right?)
