Very loaded loaner with executive package with lounge roof, M Sport, DAPP, carbon fiber trim, etc. $92,595 MSRP.
We agreed on $71K - that’s about 23.3% off pre-incentive - but they snuck in extra $50, lol. Probably for Uber. They did accept my expired OL code so I let go. They wanted to mark up the MF 40 points to 200, agreed on 180 (160 base).
Looks like an angry panda
Nicely done! White M-Sport with Shadowline always looks 
Black glass roof helps too
Awesome deal, looks sharp! Enjoy
nice spec. great deal. bolt up!
Any tips on locating a loaner? this is an excellent deal.
It’s a bit of a process: comb thru CarGurus or Edmunds try to ID loaners vs brass hats vs previously leased or purchased cars that can’t be leased. Another trick is finding a loaded loaner like this that’s not necessarily cheapest but had the best delta between the MSRP and selling price. In other words, it’s a combination of luck, skill and patience. My AMG EQS sorta landed in my lap right before I was about to pounce on it, this one took some elbow grease. YMMV, no two deals are alike.
any tips on how to tell brass hats vs loaners on car gurus? I’m aware of the diff between the two. i vaguelyy remember there being differences for lease support too. can you elaborate on that? thanks!!
Carfax only, sometimes still have to ask the dealer in certain cases.
does lease support, or programs for a brass hat differ from those for a loaner? or is it that the dealer is less interested in discounting one of those two
your i5 is a brass hat?
Mine was a loaner. BMW Brass hats mostly cannot be leased. I know they have their own rules, not sure what they are though.
nice thanks for the heads up!
Solid deal.
Just a heads up - I have an i5 40 and the range really plummets in below freezing temps.
Thanks, all EVs are prone to that… or so I’ve been told - I’m in So Cal 
Yeah I knew that going in…but we hit single digits last week here in the South and full charge range was 200 compared to 300.
Was this dealer affiliated with any broker? Or did you just approach them seperately. On Cargurus, Edmunds it has options for cash and finance, I don’t see the lease option.
You have to contact them yourself or hire a broker.
What about a sersonal phopper like Momislav_Tikula ?
Congrats again! Some questions for ya:
I could have swore we had a thread talking about BMW brass hats and how they’re generally unleasable now. @IAC remember when BMW San Luis Obispo picked up i4 two brass hats used from auction… we took a look at them and neither VIN was leasable for some reason or another?
Those cars were titled to BMW HQ @ Woodcliff Lake, NJ… and turned to auction. But for some reason the initial titling for brass hatty use basically took them off the table for leasing.
I think the same thing happened to the massively loaded i7 M60 at BMW SF.
