2018 M3 Deals on West Coast?

Hello. I am interested in purchasing a 2018 M3. I am finding it difficult to get a car anywhere near invoice pricing based on talking to dealers in the pacific north west (OR and WA). Could forum members please help me to identify dealers who would be willing to sell near invoice? I am fine with purchasing out of state as long as I do not have to pay sales tax since I reside in OR. Thank you!

Sales tax is based off of where you live.

You can reach out to a few people on the forum that can give you some references in California. I have used two particular dealers in the past but am no longer allowed to share their information per forum mods, but others will definitely jump to help you.

Plenty of dealers in the midwest that would be willing to make a good deal with you. I have the contact of a great dealer who would work with you in pricing and he can have the car delivered to your doorstep/local dealer if you wanted.

Yup, I heard about this, but only for ED, ordered out of state.
I think it's called "Courtesy Delivery", the selling dealer will do small paperwork to find "affiliate" dealer, local to buyer, if they are willing to re-deliver the ED car.

The "affiliate" dealer usually charge small fee anything from $250-$500, maybe free if you are willing to take the car as is (unwashed, uncleaned from Europe).

Anything wrong with the car, scratch, dings etc, you take it up with selling dealer, so that's the caveat.

Not sure if this applies to US delivered car, anyone knows?

but if the "affiliate" dealer charge $500, might as well buy it locally anyway, IMHO.

Cannot. Not allowed to refer at all. A specific someone kept reporting me for helping others out. I do not sweat it. I love this forum so I play by the rules and let others help people out those who seek referrals. No skin off my back

There are other means to communicate in the online BMW world besides here. Lets take a walk to consume a feast and we'll PM. Thats arm's length away, probably you received heat from the 2 main sponsors on this forum. If my hunch is correct, I just used them as a pawn to have my new car sales manager who is also my CA give me invoice and below invoice pricing.

I can recommend my dealer in So Cal. PM me for info. Also GOLFRR has a great rep on this forum.

FWIW, So Cal offers some of the worst pricing in the country. If you order from Arizona or Texas you can find a better deal.

You can get local delivery on a new car. Just received my M2 3 weeks ago. Selling dealer located in NY , delivery dealer in pittsburgh. It showed that on paper work from day1. Delivery dealer will charge PDI fee from selling dealer . Not sure of exact amount , but that was part of the deal.
