inventory vs locate vs order

Hey everyone,

How big a difference in pricing has it been getting an M5 that a dealer has in-house on the lot versus locating & swapping one with another dealership? Are the previous two options always "cheaper" than ordering a build?

I know what I want, but can make do with something else if the pricing is right. Then again would we only be talking a matter of 1K in difference between?

Thanks

A dealer will always give you the best price on something they have sitting on their lot in their inventory

Basically this...

Dealers don't want cars sitting in their lots for too long, hence why some of the 19's are being snatched up at some really nice pricing...

Dealer vs dealer trade is still a pain in the ass for them... Much like in profession sports trades, it has to be relatively even in terms of a trade between two dealerships, price wise...

Custom build? They are even less inclined to bottom out the pricing...
