Nope, it really is a 2018. They now have it listed under the “Courtesy & Demo Vehicles” on their website, but they tell me it’s still brand new and has less than a dozen miles on it.
I picked up the negotiations again since it’s at the end of the month. They tried to lease me a 2019 model. Again, they acted like they couldn’t find the Corporate Sales Program discount for a 2019. Took 3 emails (2 with the corporate account code and 1 with a screenshot of the discount explicitly shown) for them to be like, “Ooooh that. We found it and you qualify!” BUT then they claimed it’s not able for a lease even though it’s still technically this years model AND explicitly stated on the corporate sales program that it’s for financing OR lease through BMW Financial. It’s like pulling teeth to get any correct info from them.
