Understood, however, since I don't buy new anymore, I buy from whomever has the vehicle I'm searching for that has the options I need/want/must have, etc. There was a time when Passport met that prerequisite every time I needed/wanted to upgrade and I bought at least about 7-8 BMWs from them. Then all of a sudden, their used car inventory slipped,...or if something did pop up on their lot that I liked,...especially over the last 1-2 years, it became a crap shoot in trying to get it,...as folks started putting "Hold Deposits" on vehicles site unseen and by the time I was able to check it out on the weekend it would be reserved or sold to someone in another city or State. So, it's hard to compete with such an aggressive buyer's market.

Except that they do a mandatory increase to the MF on all leases, they will never do base rate. Some people are willing to pay extra for the better overall dealer experience but I prefer working with dealers that charge the base rate set by bmw financial services.

Coggin on the Treasure Coast was always fantastic to deal with in the past, but I never bought there or even saw their prices so can't attest to that side. But my folks use Coggin Acura and they've always been treated well.

X3 was through BMW of Orland Park. Not sure if that's always the case.

I did not know that was their webstore. Thanks for passing the info along. I need to get some rubber mats.

I wish simply saying no would force them to write up the lease contract at the base rate when I was getting my X5 & wife’s X7. They were firm that it’s non negotiable, but I’m glad you were able to successfully get base rate with them.

I had the finance manager bring up the advertised rate on the BMW USA site on the computer and insisted on that rate. Basically I said, “Deal or no deal”!

I purchased from out of state because of the outrageous fees tacked on by the dealers here, and service at both Tampa dealers (owned by same parent company) left a lot to be desired.
