I know this is a tough one
what dealership is changing the terms , although I bet I can guess in FL
BMW Tampa. I agreed for $2500 market adjustment but when I checked the paperwork its now $5000. So in reality since you have to buy their protection plan for almos 2k everything is around 7k in market adjustments. They also told me that they want to rise the APR from 1.9 which I was approved back at the beginning of January to 3.99. I just went to Fields BMW where I bought my other 2 BMW's and found that weird combination M3 but no market adjustment and no mark up on the APR.

I had a feeling you were going to say BMW of Tampa... they told me a 10k mark up a few months back. I ended up going to Bert Smith for my AR and I am hoping they hold their word with me so we will see.

Good luck !!!! They will probably try to keep my deposit now but I'm still saving a lot of money between markup, dealer fees and APR.

They can't keep your deposit, it's not completely legal in FL. If they mention it, just mention that and you'll have an attorney reach out, it'll get refunded pretty quick.

Quote:
According to Florida Statute 501.976(10): "It is an unfair or deceptive act or practice, actionable under the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act, for a dealer to: require or accept a deposit from a prospective customer prior to entering into a binding contract for the purchase and sale of a vehicle unless the customer is given a written receipt that states how long the dealer will hold the vehicle from other sale and the amount of the deposit, and clearly and conspicuously states whether and upon what conditions the deposit is refundable or nonrefundable."
Consumer protection attorney Jason Weaver put it this way: "The law says they can hold somebody's deposit for whatever reason they want; there is only one catch. They have to specifically disclose in writing through a written receipt the conditions that allow them to hold that deposit."

Yeah, the CF exterior was a must for me, but it's all available aftermarket.

Congrats Cane! That color is super on the coupe. Glad the journey has a positive ending. Question - did you ship that to yourself or drive from out of state dealer (I think I read you got it out of state)? Just curious, I might have a similar choice in the coming weeks.

Thanks! The color is so much richer in person, I flew in and drove home. It was about 900 ,lies door-to-door, but ended up putting 1200 miles on with all the stops (we went out of the way a couple times for food).

And the metal flake, wasn't expecting that. The pics really don't convey that.

I have tint and break-in being done on Monday. Then it's on to spacers and stance, and maybe a few other things. I'll go digging for your thoughts on that.

If I had it shipped instead of driving home, it would have taken me 5 months to get to break-in, lol.
