Typical discount of MSRP for G82 and typical deposit
I’m looking to place a customer order in California. Should I be aiming for 5% off?
For the deposit, my dealer for 5k. Should I be aiming for 1k? |

Thanks for your replies. Earlier there were two replies saying MSRP and 5K down.
Haha… I think one person deleted theres. Thing is, this is what the dealer wants. Like this was the first offer from the dealer. There’s no way that’s what they would do after some negotiation. I would love to get some more data points… |

My point about a deposit in California is that if the deposit is refundable, then what’s the point of taking $5k of my money and letting it sit for 8 months. It’s not like it’s going to protect the dealer because if want the money back, I’ll get all of it back in California.

Varies from dealer to dealer, but $5k deposit and 1% off MSRP for my latest order on a G80.
Previously I’ve been able to negotiate a $2k deposit at MSRP.

Not sure how relevant this is for California, but I was able to secure pricing on a '25 G82 build from three dealers at 5% off MSRP plus incentives (if applicable at time of delivery) in PA/NJ --- deposit requests varied from $0 (1x) to $1k (2x).

If you can get 5% off a custom order that’s a great deal.
Some dealers take deposits to prevent odd colors/specs being ordered and then having a hard to sell spec if you walk but generally deposits are legally required to be refunded. My opinion is if you are serious about the order no biggie to put some cash down as it just goes to your cost anyhow. Particularly if your dealer has a ready to build spot. |

Haven’t put down a deposit in over 15 years and always at a discount off of MRSP. 1st car yes for a deposit over 20 yrs ago, but once you build a relationship and dealer knows you, then adios deposit. $5k seems excessive, but it’s Cali as that state never surprises me with their nonsense.

G80-M3 is MRSP if no ‘hookup’ whereas M4-G82/G83 is easy under MRSP. I had a first month allocation G83 during the pandemic with price split the difference between MRSP and wholesale.

MSRP with a $2500 deposit in Canada. After I confirmed my…differently abled…spec, they required me to make a further $7500 deposit.
