I called BMWNA several times and complained. Pretty much daily the week before I ordered my car. I pay $520 for for a loaded 335 XDrive MSPort with 15k miles. Now they want $799. Yeah ok. I told NA I was being priced out of the market. I also said no salesman can convince me to pay $799 for a 3 series just because they put an M next to the 3.

After all the gouging I found a nice dealer. BMW of Freehold. The internet manager was amazing. She understood I was an expert and not to play car sales games with me. I bought a car with a phone call and two emails. That was Monday. Boom my car will be completed this coming Wednesday. I did very well with pricing with this dealer. However I qualified for $3250 in incentives.
I'm going to have to reach out to them. My parents have been leasing BMWs non-stop for 25 years and now I'm in the game (just graduated college) and I too apply for every single incentive except corporate. I still get "laughed" out of most dealerships (and I currently lease a BMW). It could be my age but I don't know, and definitely don't care. This is NJ, BMW dealerships are not exactly few and far between. There will be a dealership that eventually realizes that I'm serious and will take my money. Let's see if Freehold is such a dealership.
