Yes that's correct. I called them an hour ago and they wanted 20k over MSRP

The entire world will be sitting on too much supply after 1-2 years. Mark my words. We are experiencing "inflation" that's been artificially created - in the form of one stimulus after another - and is currently on life-support.

What is ACTUALLY going on behind the curtain is the world is building up massive deflationary pressure that will erupt very soon.

The car bubble will be the first to burst. I can promise you that. Oh it's coming. Give it time.

I can see the issue more with people who overpaid for used cars the past couple years.

Turns out this was a special package owned by BMW NA as corporate fleet vehicle for the past 18 mos, decked out in 1/1 490 FernBlau "Fern Blue" non metallic with the Fjord Blue / Black full merino interior with carbon buckets.

They put about 7000 miles on it doing displays and such like SPACE by BMW...it's now for sale for $93k at Century West BMW. Original MSRP fully kitted at $107,645.

That's the same BMW dealership I bought my X3 M Competition from. And it was a BMW corporate car too. Only had a hair over 1,000 miles. They're inventory is not cheap, but they have some low mileage clean machines there (from what I've seen).

Wow, you found yourself a keeper there. Was the base G80 M3 just not quick enough for her... ? LOL.

There was only 1 YMB G80 ever made and it was created as a track & press vehicle for demonstrations. It is currently for sale by a dealer in Georgia.
I requested YMB on the G80 at 3 different dealerships and it was denied as the factory no longer supports the color.

The YMB for sale is truly a 1 of 1 with every single option checked off (CCB, bucket seats, full interior, etc) and I believe it has a custom interior from what the dealer told me.

They are asking $89k for a 2021 Comp RWD with 8,500 miles. Fair warning there was a good amount of track time on it. I was able to get the dealer to come down on pricing a fair amount however since it was a BMW corporate fleet vehicle they are not able to offer any-type of extended warranty.

Wow, no idea this existed. Thanks for sharing!

Saw the fern blue one posted on social media as well. Some folks will be super lucky to own these cars with likely 1/1 spec.
