On a side note I'd recommend this dealer. They tend to negotiate more probably due to inland location. Got my mom's G05 X5 from here in a unique spec only their dealership had on the entire west coast.

Why are you recommending a dealer that is charging a $20k mark-up on all their M3s? Have they got you commission or something? |
Lets do some math, car starts at 70k, add CF exterior pack 4k, CF bucket seats 4k, CF interior 1k, individual paint 5k, other stuff easily 3k. So tell me how 91k = ~86k + 20k (over msrp)? Or are we boycotting dealerships now bc they gouged the very first have-to-have it buyers? |
Dude, they're not selling that car for $91k, they're selling it for $111k. Out the door in CA that would be over $120k. I could care less if they have a mark-up, but the person who buys it for that price is a fool. |
Two have sold already. Saw it with my own eyes and yes I do agree with you on people buying at that price. |
G8X's in SoCal have sold with mark-up's between $8k-20k-ish. Of course it isn't listed that way on AutoTrader the same way it isn't generally listed that way on dealership websites. Many of the G8X's on the websites are already sold pre-orders. They still have to list them even though they aren't available for sale (... unless the buyer backs out upon arrival). With that said, this has been occurring since I began driving. I can even remember back when the '99 Honda Civic SI's were selling above sticker (... just like the current Type R's). It's a shit practice, but manufacturers offering sought after cars sold this all of the time. |
I don't have any issue with them having mark-ups, they should sell for the highest possible price they can, but it does irk me when they purposefully misstate their price on their own website or auto trader. They're doing it to make it harder to comparison shop, and to try and reel people in and get them engaged |
I would just ask dealers what their mark-up is. Cut to the chase. At least Riverside will negotiate their mark-up amounts, unlike other dealerships.
