So Dan came through again! The dealer they are getting the car from had the wrong car with 1300 miles. It's not confirmed yet. But its a 99% chance the number 1 car I listed, is actually brand new with no miles. Found out the car I'm getting just arrived on the 18th and is in their warehouse. Because that was when everything shut down. So they had no time to even put it in the show room or anything. Dan is the man. He stayed on them till he got the car I wanted at a great price!

It was a joke from me ahah, but you didn't get it!

I had a fully loaded X5M, and replaced it with the M5 very well optionned, so money wise I don't understand your point.

Speaking about discounts, yes we do have them in Europe, but you have no idea of the very high taxes we paying to enjoy our toys ...

Goodbye idiot.

CF roof and B&W! Just took delivery of a 20 M5C equipped with both. My now retired 17 X5M had the B&O system. Not sure if its just the smaller cabin size but the B&W in the M5C sounds better than the X5Ms B&O and also sounds better than the HK system in my wife's 20 X7...

Yes...I'm from Maryland and Dan is from New Jersey. The NJ dealership overnighted me the paperwork which I signed and sent back with my check for drive off and MD state taxes which was on a Friday. On Monday the shipping company Dan referred me to picked up the car in NJ and delivered to me in MD for $300. 4 weeks later my MD tags arrived. He made everything so easy!!

I just noticed your from LA so not sure how beneficial it would be to work with Dan. Look on LeaseHackr for a Cali broker: https://forum.leasehackr.com/c/marke.../california/14

Like what TwinWhistles said about a broker in LA, but it doesn't hurt to contact him. If he has the car you want you can just get it shipped to you! If you want his info PM me

I have an almandine brown metallic f90 with the CF roof and B&W. I just wish there was an option to crack all windows 1-2" with the press of 1 button when I'm trying to enjoy those crackles and pops.

You definitely want both the CF roof and the B & W. The CF roof is very sweet looking and you won't miss the sunroof at all. B & W system is much better than the HK base system but when I want real music I listen to my Remus exhaust.

It takes away half of the aggressiveness of the car.

Honestly, if I saw someone with a sunroof on their M5....I'd think they must have gotten a bare bones one cheap because hardly anyone would opt for the sunroof. Just get a M550 otherwise...save the money. It looks pedestrian.

I understand that some people just love sunroofs....but it simply doesn't look as intimidating or good with a sunroof. It looks like a normal 5. You aren't going to fool anyone with wrapping the roof, either.....the carbon roof has a completely different shape/line than the normal roof.
Def, a bold statement. It comes down to personal preference. I’ve had sunroofs in each of my ///M’s and won’t be any different in my F90. If the sun is out and temps agree, I’m using the sunroof.

I got lucky the 1. Car I posted. Found out the car is new no miles. The inventory manager had 2 different cars mixed up. With that said. I will have the exact build I want. White with CF roof with B&W.

My car has a sunroof and every option......full leather.....piano black trim....B&W.....executive package.....20 inch wheels......etc etc.

So, Ah, no, you are wrong about that assumption.

My dad also got a 2018 and has all but the fancy stereo and has the 19 in wheels and he ordered with the sunroof.

The CF roof is nice. But I prefer a sunroof. I use mine very often.

With a black car, the CF roof is not that noticeable anyway.

I was wondering that. How does that work with a lease? Your really leasing the car for 39 months?

No, you would just owe the first 3 payments in 90 days. Lease term is the same.

I thought that might be it. I'm not gonna defer the payments. But in these unfortunate times I'm very fortunate. I have a very small but essential business and my wife works from home. That would be a lot to owe in 90 days.

Perfect car but the miles
1.(WHITE) Car is $124,500 everything I want plus an extra $3,500 option that I wouldn't get if ordering, but nice to have. Found out tonight that the manager been driving the car, has 1300 miles on it. $6,000 down $1,297 a month. No extra discount.

Perfect car but sunroof
2.(SINGAPORE GREY) Car is $119,800 this how I would order the car except it has a sunroof l really wanted the carbon fiber roof. New $4,600 down $1299 a month. Was thinking I could wrap the roof either carbonfiber or gloss black? Never seen it done.

Perfect car but most expensive. Shipping charge.
3.(WHITE) CAR IS $124,300 everything I want but it's in Virginia. I would have to pay for shipping $1,000 to $1,500 on top of $6,000 down $1,295 a month.

I don't know what to do!!!!
What would you pick and why if you dont mind telling me.

Thank you.
Get what you want man. Price is just a couple of thousand dollars from one another. Let's be real, at this price range, does it really matter? Get 3rd option, which is what you want. Do yourself a favor, go pick it up in Virginia and drive it home!

I lucked out. No.1 was actually new. The inventory manager at the dealer had my car mixed up with another one. We think its because the car came in the 18th and they got closed down due to the Corona virus like the next day. So it never hit the show room. It's still in there wear house.
