So Cal - m3 lease help

[m7ich7ael7]

Looking to get into an m3. Fairly stripped m3 if I can find one ($70,375 msrp). Wondering if you guys (the forum) can help me find a good deal. Here's a few questions:

1. Do dealers tend to be more flexible negotiating cars on the lot vs built to order?
2. I see people from NY getting 6-9k off msrp. Is this possible in So Cal?
3. How much should I look to pay monthly for 0 - down, 12,000 miles off $70,375 msrp?
Lastly, any recommended dealers/SA in SoCal?

Thanks

I don't think we are seeing the same deals as East Coast folks.

From what I've gathered reading everyone's posts on this forum there are a few favored dealers ----- GOLFFRR's dealer which is a little more north, Khoi @ Long Beach, Joey Lee @ Alexander, someone at Irvine, someone at Encinitas....... Hated dealerships I've read ----- McKenna and Crevier

I would highly recommend you talk to David from Steve Thomas as GOLFFRR suggested. I worked with David to get a few quotes when I was first considering an M3 and he was great to work with. If you have an iOS device, this app really helps with figuring out payments and what discounts/MF changes/etc. do to the payment - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/leas...593255005?mt=8

Keep in mind you can order a car from pretty much any BMW center, so you can potentially contact dealers in the Northeast.

In addition to McKenna I do not recommend Pacific BMW.

It seems East Coast does have better deals.

I got a good deal with BMW of Ontario. Internet SM was prompt with numbers/responses and willing to negotiate to lower offers I had from other CA dealers. AW M4 6MT was ordered on 12/24 and she immediately came in different options on BMW NA tracking page (I assume they reconfigured existing order).

Thanks for the input guys. Researching... I'll give you guys an update what I find.
