New 535i,thoughts on deal I got

So I just ordered a new 535i specced out as follows:

Cold Weather Package
M Sport Package
Premium Package
Premium Package 2
Sport automatic transmission with shift paddles
Split fold-down-rear seat
BMW App

MSRP on the car was 66600$

They agreed to 61500$.

I was thinking that 92% was about the "invoice point" which puts this at 228$ over that which seemed like an OKAY price.

Now I'm just very excited to get it

Dark Graphite II with Cinnamon Brown Interior, they said 4-5 weeks I'm not holding my breath, but I'm also in no rush to get this car

Yeah, my dealer didn't have samples but DGII is supposed to be very close to DG. It was the Japan issue that caused them to switch to a slightly different color makeup (xirlac (sp?), can't be assed to look it up, but it's some component of the paint they can't use anymore).

Looks like a good deal, but there is a free navigation deal going on now, is that included in your deal.

You ordered a color that you haven't even looked once, what it turns up to different than the dark graphite I, i mean in shade during sunny days

Yeah, they threw that in as part of the bargaining. I'm pretty confident DGII will look very similar as they did not send dealers samples or advisories (this was reinforced by the dealer itself). If anything it'll be a TOUCH less shiny which is better I think. The car/color is already very reflective so a little tone down would be perfect.

There's no other color I'd prefer, I really like mojave until I saw it in person...way too light of a brown for me.

That was not part of the bargaining. It is a deal announced by BMW.

Yes, I understand, but it was used as leverage from their end. I just called and they confirmed that they ordered the 6NF smartphone integration at no cost to me as well.

Scheduled date of completion is June 1st. Should have very soon after that

Also got a price adjustment for the nav + smartphone integration which was listed as N/C on the order sheet, but they initially charged me for it anyway.
