I'm hoping i didn't mess up by getting Jet Black. It should look great but it's going to show scratches more then the Metallic. I wanted the Black Metallic but it wasn't offered with the m sport package.

Nice! Yeah, I agree on Jet Black. Too bad they do not offer Black Sapphire metallic with M Sport.

what discount are you guys getting with these orders? lease or buy, doesnt matter

I really like the Idea of ordering my next F10. I want a 528i RWD fully loaded, especially B&O sound.

I purchased with no discount. I'd like to know if anyone received a discount on ordering a 2014 when 2013s are still in the lots (besides the $750 discount for being a previous owner).

Yup, got straight invoice pricing from Braman in SoFL.

Same here! Got invoice from BMW of Beverly Hills

[Donser]

Is this for a 2014? When is your ETA date?

I got $1,000 under invoice + $1,000 Driver Experience incentive on my 2014 535i. It's currently in production, scheduled for completion on 7/2.
Note: Be sure to drive the 528i to make sure you like that engine.

[igom3]

I didn’t calculate any incentives Loyalty, drive event and possible Eco credit on 535D. I could end up few grand below invoice. We'll see.

Yes 2014, late August early September I guess.

[SonicEndeavor]

I'm sure most of you know this, but make sure your quoted price includes all fees. In the U.S. there should be Destination, MACO and Training. Any other fees (Dealer Prep, Doc prep etc.) are garbage fees that need to be rejected by the potential buyer. Bottom line: don't be one of those people who thinks the benevolent Dealer sold them the car at Invoice, only to find out they paid $1500 over invoice because fees were excluded from the quoted price.

[igom3]

That's correct! The only fee I pay up front is $725.00 bank fee, registration and first payment. I agree they get very creative sticking those fees in to your contract. Thanks for the info!

The automated phone system will give you an estimated completion date. It's more detailed than the website as well - telling you when your car is in the body shop, paint shop, etc
1-800-831-1117
The system uses voice prompts so you have to speak slowly and clearly.
You'll need your Production Order Number or the last 7 characters of your VIN.

congrats on a great deal!!

Can I ask how you got the $1000 discount? I attended the driving event but did not receive an email with the discount info. I just called BMWNA and they were able to give me a code over the phone. Is that sufficient?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks.
I received an e-mail from BMWNA containing my coupon code 2 days after the event. Your code should be fine, but I'd recommend contacting your Client Advisor to make sure they don't need the entire e-mail.
Also of course, the event has to be attended before the order is placed, or if you're buying from Dealer stock, before taking delivery.

Yes - state tax, DMV, State tire fee possibly, and any fees associated with your method of financing. This is from a U.S. perspective.

Nice configuration. I really like the multi contour seats - especially the seat extension to provide better thigh support for those of us with long legs. That's all I would add to your config.

+1 on multi contour seats. I'm 6'2 and without extension seat would be too short.

Thanks for the number!! Just called and it's at the paint shop with expected completion date of 6/29. I thought production STARTED 7/2 so I was pleased to hear the 6/29 date. I'm trying to schedule a Performance Center Delivery in South Carolina and the guy at BMWUSA could not tell me about what date that might be. Too early which I expected but had to ask!

[Donser]

My production date is not until July 28...

[Atl550]

I asked my dealer to sign me up for the Performance Center Delivery in South Carolina and I pasted the response from the BMW Performance Center Delivery Team back to my dealer below. It’s a little hard to read but looks like things are on hold until the EPA and CARB Certifications are issued by the government. My 550i was completed today (6/29) and now I have no idea when it will be able to be released.
