I got my best deal on an M4 in Melbourne last summer. Second best was Coggin / Treasure Coast. Worst were Naples and South Motors. You could also consider expanding search outside FL.

I got what I considered a good deal from John Weltzien at Braman of W. Palm Beach. Euro Delivery with PCD re-delivery.

I got a great deal on an ED M4 from a dealer on the west coast (LA). I took what I had to Braman WPB to see if they wanted to deal with a local, and they lowballed me on my E92 M3 trade (offered $32k, I sold it for $40K, but had an offer from another dealer at $37k), and they thought they were being generous when they offered to sell me a car at ED MSRP.

If you can drive a bit, I think my guy at Germain in Naples is pretty good. Ft. Myers seems to deal more (anecdotally), but I have never bought there.

Germain wouldn't deal at all when I tried them, and also had the highest MF markup. Also gave me the lowest trade-in value. Part of it may have been that they had an SO M4 when BMW stopped production of SO for a while and there weren't many around. Maybe the rest was that they just didn't like me.

So I sent my offer to the folks in Melbourne as suggested. was $500 over invoice pre-incentive for US delivery, which was pretty aggressive...was shocked when they came back at $1,000 over, which is a good start. I will post my offer in the appropriate thread...but THANK YOU RICK for the referral!!!

Great - hope it works out for you! I had to work a little harder than that last year. I bought my M4 off their showroom floor and had to be patient to get the right deal but it worked out well. Sales rep was Denis.
