Longtime lurker, first time poster! Thank you all for the help!
2020 M340i Demo w/ 4300mi on it. This is last and only M340i demo they had.
Reached out previously about the car and we were not eye to eye…reached out again Friday morning with an offer to them basically saying “hey, you’ve had this for a little while, let’s make a deal” and he came back strong. I wasn’t losing the car over a few bucks a month and it’s not like M340i loaners grow on trees.
They were happy, I’m happy, life’s good. Could I have squeezed for a few more? Maybe, but Mocha interior makes up for it and it’s local dealer…
Find a loaner, watch it until the deal is right, and pull the trigger when you get a number you like. Great to see tenacity can pay off - especially in this tight inventory environment.
Looks like a good deal:
15-20% pre-incentive discount - check
Buy rate MF - check
No inflated fees or junk add-ons - check
Preferred options - check
I search on cargurus.com with filter of < 5000mi and then check the carfax for ones I’m interested. If loaner/demo you usually see “dealer took ownership of vehicle” or something along those lines.
Not necessarily. What I usually look for is a vehicle delivered to that same dealer, corporate fleet or rental dmv tag or never titled, below 5k miles, and just call to double check.
