I actually ended up buying the Lime Rock Grey 50 Jahre Edition they happened to have just received, so everyone after me moves up...

Loving the new car!

Was an excellent experience all around from the dealership and James Miller as SA!

When I placed the order in Dec of 2021, there was no markup. Are they doing ADM now?

Not sure. I was just wondering.

They told me they were doing markups for 'non-locals', whatever that means. I was on their waitlist for an ordered car at MSRP, but ended up paying a small markup on the 50 Jahre Edition I bought from them when they had it at the dealership (previously had refused to pay an outrageous ADM they wanted to order the very same car).

I'm not too worked up about the markup I paid, as I'm pretty certain I would have lost at least that much on my trade value if I waited for my order- was still likely going to be 4-6 months before delivery.
