You’ve left plenty of ambiguity in that deal for a dealer to hit every single one of those (well, I don’t know what the penfed incentive actually is), and still mark things up substantially.
All, thanks for the feedback and correct on many suggestions. BMW of Alexandria is marking up the money factor to .00151 so I figured I should look at buying via PenFed financing. Attached is the build sheet and if a dealer is interested, please direct message me
My local BMW dealer agreed to my discount asks however told me that if I order a 2022 BMW M440i this week since it won’t arrive until ~Feb/March of 2022, the car will be subject to the BMW price hikes of about $2k on this model. I do see that BMW is looking to increase rates however wouldn’t the deal be based on the December deal sheet? I’m using outside PenFed loan financing and not using BMW financials if that matters in locking in a price. Any suggestions on how to maintain current pricing on a custom build that is placed this week?
Dealer here, so… I’m putting my perspective out here. We never want to make a deal with the caveat of, “Hey, there’s always a chance the factory will increase the base price of the car you’re ordering” because… well, what are the chances? We don’t have a crystal ball and while the prices do go up every few years we have no idea which year.
You have the option to shop around for a better price knowing about the price increases, too, but I have a feeling it’s going to be hard (if not impossible) to make your dealer eat the price increase. It’s not their fault that the news hit after they said ok to the deal.
