330i US Deliveries get the green light!
Looks like BMW won't make us wait until March to deliver the new 3 series. They will be available for delivery as soon as they arrive over the next few weeks.

Thanks for the update. On average, does your dealer intend to offer any discounts off MSRP for the initial wave? My guess is no, but it seems like BMW is really counting on this 3 to succeed after losing some ground with the F30.

I just contacted Costco. The dealer who contacted me through Costco quoted me invoice +$1250. We did not discuss BMW Club or other deductions.

Yes, as far as I know. Since there aren't any G20s, and won't for a while. I checked Audi through Costco. They sent me to a fairly local dealer & I tested A5s and S5s for three hours intending to order a new '19. After that I decided that the new Audi was not as good a car as my existing '16 340. FWIW, the A5 would have been invoice -500, and the S5, inv. +1200.
My personal situation/problem is that my lease ends the end of Feb., and after eliminating the Audi, I plan to replace it with either a new 340 or a Genesis G70, but that ain't avail. in Cal-land yet either. |

I have no issue discounting them. The more I sell the more they give me.

How about a leftover 2018 M3? Or is that too similar? Last edited by praxis218; 02-01-2019 at 05:16 PM.. |

Apple CarPlay is free on Audi which kind of future proofs it. However, the ui is now a previous gen system compared to their new A6/A7 etc systems. Their virtual cockpit is better than the live cockpit or whatever BMW called it. However, iDrive on the center screen is light years ahead of Audi. Even iDrive in my '17 X5 (6.0 I think is what I have) is way better than the A5 lineup.

As far as the Live Cockpit: I played with a M850i last weekend and the iDrive 7 is even better than before. There's no noticeable latency -- it feels just like a high end smartphone. The car is beautiful in real life but jesus it's H-U-G-E I'm 5'9" and felt like a midget sitting inside. |

Contacted my dealer 500$ a month for a G20 330 x drive seems to steep ? I'm thinking once they get more g20 3 series they will get some what cheaper, still looking forward to getting one tho!

Hopefully this is correct info. My dealer told me that there is stop sale recall on cars and their cars are waiting at the final processing center.

My dealer said they don't have the G20 yet (even dealer demos) and aren't sure when they will. BMW must be making them wait until all dealers have at least one on the lot?
