If only I had $94k.

Anyway I just thought ya'll would enjoy looking at it. I like it when dealerships have a little fun when speccing a car.

I added it up and they have only put a ~2k premium on the car. That isn't too bad in my opinion. Dealers have done worse....cough cough...Pacific BMW....cough cough.

The only good thing about the price is that it will give me plenty of time to save up for it. lol about 5 years.

Aside from everything else, are the black competition wheels really $5k? BMW of Cleveland seems to sell the same set for $2400:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-OEM-E92-...b366d0&vxp=mtr

I also like how the ad says it has no miles, but the description says "I walked around it and drove it for 15 minutes in order to give you a good overall impression of the vehicle." I wonder how high the rpms went during that drive! I can see the conversation now:

Bob: Hey Mike, we need you to drive this brand-new, "one-of-a-kind" M3 for about 15 minutes to see what you think. Then post the car on eBay, where it will likely sell to someone who lives nowhere near here. OK?

Mike: No problem.

Correction: 4k premium


LOL yeah. I would be paranoid about that happening if I had an M car.

Actually, the dealer doesn't pay MSRP for the parts, and the $5,000 for the black wheels... does the buyer then get the silver Comp wheels then too?

Also, we finally have an answer as to how much the sticking costs. I guess it's not too bad considering you seem to get extended leather too.

Way to much for a $60k car. I would gladly buy a 2008 Gallardo with 2012 front facia and rear lip over this.

You can't. The dealer added a bunch of BMW Performance parts.

So you pay $2500 for the competition package which come with the wheels in silver. They remove those wheels and add the exact wheels in black and then charge another $5K for the wheels. Now you've got about $7500 in wheels you've paid. They should at least give you the original set of wheels that came with the car. I bought the comp wheels for $2400. The price is the same for silver or black.

They have listed and re-listed that thing. i messed with them several weeks ago when it was posted and asked where the original ZCP wheels were since I would be paying for both. No response. That dealer will never unload that thing.

So wait, they added NO extra power or transmission upgrades, but want 94 grand before taxes and tags? I'll go buy a used R8 for that. http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-s...22421181&Log=0

Hell, you could get a nicely used 911 Turbo for that, too. http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-s...20671956&Log=0

If you had 94k you would be wasting 20k.
