Who are the "go-to" dealers for pricing/service on a new order?

JABCAT · 02-04-2023, 05:35 PM

My wife is interested in possibly ordering a new X3 M40i. She ordered a '23 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit last summer & picked it up in October. She's been having some issues with it already and has pretty much soured on it, so wants to dump it. I know in the Jeep community there are preferred dealers who give good discounts on sold orders (she got 4% below invoice on the GC), so we're hoping there are similar BMW dealers out there.

We're in TX but don't mind ordering from an out-of-state dealer (the GC was ordered from IA). Thanks for dealer suggestions!

Adrian Avila in Georgia is well regarded. I would avoid Autobahn in Fort Worth. Their GM, Aaron Windes, is a self important, pompous jerk.

Adrian (@ BMW of Gwinnett Place) is very nice and responsive, but there are NO BMW DEALS coming out of Atlanta, period.

The market here is still ridiculously strong so I'm sure Adrian is MSRP only.

Go to leasehacker and you can see what the brokers are advertising

I believe the best you're going to find in TX is MSRP. I'm from San Antonio and I ended up going with BMW of Austin. BMW of San Antonio and South Austin had the cojones to charge above MSRP and had mandatory options (window tint, nitrogen, etc.)

I simply created my build and sent it to all three dealers. I got exactly what I wanted from BMW of Austin. Ask for Mike Hanaway.

Fields South Orlando was MSRP for me. They also swapped allocations with another dealer to get me a build sooner for my m340i.

They did hike up BMW FS interest rate but I found one significantly lower at a credit union.

Used a broker off leasehackr for an m340i and got ~10% off MRSP. Car is currently scheduled for production. Problem isn’t the discount it’s the allocations. I had to wait 2.5 months for an allocation and now rates have increased as well so double edged sword a bit.

Also, if you happen to be an USAA member you get an additional 1500.00 rebate.

I would agree with both posts. Downside is obviously waiting for an allocation but I think the brokers were offering 2.5% off for the 340i. I got my 330i for 6% off.(This was last month and for the Midwest/east coast)

West coast may have different deals.

Do you mind sharing the broker you used 10% is a hell of deal
