That really sucks. Thing is with the M340i there is a ton of allocations and especially for larger dealerships. So at the end of the day it is not a matter of demand over supply. You could always find a dealer in another state and have the car shipped and still be ahead of the game.

There are three BMW dealers in the region and they simply know that they don't have to compete too hard. I looked at pricing on a new M550 in Canada and was very tempted to buy there - it would have saved me nearly $8000 allowing for the negotiation, currency rate, and factoring in transportation, until I found out that US dealerships in the NW will not honor Canadian BMW warranties.
