That means less than zero. It may have even counted against you, lol. AutoNation has NO loyalty, even to it's employees.

I first saw this on an E36 M3 and just fell in love with the color. To see it on a modern M4 just made all the difference for me.

could be location based. The dealership that i put the M2 order in for waived the ADM they had on the car due to my F87C purchase and were willing to match another dealerships deal at 500$ under MSRP.

OP congrats on your color combo. Was probably a order that a customer backed out of?

Just did a quick cars.com search, as 206 new M3’s and 669 new M4’s (both G82/G83) sitting on lots. The M4’s are accumulating on lots more so than M3’s.

Total price came out to 80k before tax and fees.

Well today i decided to go check out some M4's and M2's and look to see if i really wanted the M2 and if i could live with the looks of the M4. Sat in an M4, really liked the interior and how the seats felt. Salesperson asked if i wanted to test drive. We took it out and i really, really liked how it drove. This was just the normal M4 and man that was already quick.

Talking to the sales person, she also told me that since i specced the carbon buckets on the M2, that the build could take as long as 6 months for it to get here. I didnt want to wait that long. The M2 is not a dream car of mine at all, just a transitional car till the next one, so for me not worth the wait.

So then we sat in an M2 with standard seats to see if i would like them enough. And wow the price difference was immediately apparent. The M2 was significantly more uncomfortable. At that point i decided that the M4 was probably going to be the better car for me. We drove to another dealership that had some more selection as they didnt have much at the one we are at. As we were walking towards the cars, this one caught my eye. It was a green, but not Isle of [...]
Those folks on the classified with near msrp for 2021-22, time to get real.

As far as I'm aware the M3 is still hard to come by under MSRP but it's possible to make it happen on the M4.

Regardless, 11% is amazing! Congrats once again OP and amazing color.

I asked, and they said one of their senior BMW genius' ordered it with the intention of it being a one off. Apparently the guy has such seniority that he just does that for various models.

Yeah no need to look at pre owned cars at the moment.

I think there is great deals to be had on new G82/G83 and even G80 in the current market

These are NEW cars, not used. Y’all have to remember the end of year sales push to hit da number aka sales quota for bonus, both CA and SM.

Nice colour combination, still drives me nuts that US cars have those stupid front reflectors which on a car like imo this really cheapens the front. Nothing g you can do I know, but do not understand the benefit
